A method for determining a DF of a multicast flow, a device, and a system are disclosed. In an EVPN scenario, a CE device is connected to a plurality of PE devices in a dual-homed or multi-homed manner. A first PE device is any one of the plurality of PE devices. After determining that the CE device connected to an Ethernet link joins a multicast group of a multicast flow, the first PE device determines bandwidth occupation statuses of a plurality of Ethernet links included in an ES to which the Ethernet link belongs, and then determines, as a DF of the multicast flow based on the multicast flow bandwidth occupation statuses of the plurality of Ethernet links, a PE device corresponding to an Ethernet link that occupies lowest multicast flow bandwidth. This helps improve equalization of load sharing for multicast flow transmission on an EVPN.

A system and method for managing access congestion in a computer network, the system and method including: determining a plurality of channels within the computer network via a subscriber channel module; determining a set of subscribers for each of the channels of the plurality of channels via the subscriber channel module; determining a congestion level of each of the channels of the plurality of channels via an analysis module; determining each subscriber's impact on the respective channel based on each subscriber's network usage via the analysis module; and determining a reallocation of the subscribers to balance the channels, based on the congestion level and each subscriber's network usage, via a distribution module.

This document describes modeling and simulation techniques to select a cloud architecture profile based on correlations between application workloads and resource utilization. In some aspects, a method includes obtaining infrastructure data specifying utilization of computing resources of an existing computing system. Application workload data specifying tasks performed by one or more applications running on the existing computing system is obtained. One or more models are generated based on the infrastructure data and the application workload data. The model(s) define an impact on utilization of each computing resource in response to changes in workloads of the application(s). A workload is simulated, using the model(s), on a candidate cloud architecture profile that specifies a set of computing resources. A simulated utilization of each computing resource of the candidate cloud architecture profile is determined based on the simulation. An updated cloud architecture profile is generated based on the simulated utilization.

Examples described herein relate to a network interface device that includes packet processing circuitry to detect usage of an egress port and report the usage of the egress port to a network interface device driver to cause reallocation of hash-based packet buckets to at least one egress port to provide an allocation of hash-based packet buckets to multiple active egress ports of the network interface device with retention of bucket-to-egress port mappings except for re-allocations of one or more buckets to one or more active egress ports. In some examples, usage of the egress port is based on a count of hash buckets assigned to packets to be transmitted from the egress port or a number of bytes of packets enqueued to be transmitted from the egress port.

Provided are an apparatus and method of interworking IoT servers associated with heterogeneous platforms. The method of providing IoT resource information in an IoT server operating based on a first IoT platform includes: receiving device information of a first IoT device to register in a resource table; transmitting resource information of the first IoT device including a resource path of the first IoT device to an external IoT server through an interworking brokerage server; receiving resource information of a second IoT device registered in the external IoT server operating based on a second IoT platform through the interworking brokerage server; and translating an original resource path included in the resource information of the second IoT device into a format according to the first IoT platform to store the resource information of the second IoT device including the original resource path and a translated resource path in the resource table.

Disclosed methods include a resource manager in a multiple node network receiving a demand for additional bandwidth, from a terminal, and the resource manager having updated information on the state of the mobile node network and, using that the state information, performing test allocation of the requested bandwidth to the requesting terminal. Disclosed methods include determining whether previous commitments of service can be met with the test allocation in place. Associated with a positive result, an allocation is sent to the terminal.

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems. One example comprises monitoring traffic between a plurality of microservices to determine a property of the traffic. Embodiments of the present invention can then, based on the determined property of the monitored traffic, relocate each of the plurality of microservices from its respective origin resource to a shared resource.

In service flow capability updating in a guaranteed bandwidth multicast network may be provided. First, a node may determine that a bandwidth requirement of a flow has changed to a new bandwidth value. Then, in response to determining that the bandwidth requirement of the flow has changed to the new bandwidth value, an ingress capacity value may be updated in an interface usage table for a Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) interface corresponding to the flow. The RPF interface may be disposed on a network device. Next, in response to determining that the bandwidth requirement of the flow has changed to the new bandwidth value, an egress capacity value may be updated in the interface usage table for an Outgoing Interface (OIF) corresponding to the flow. The OIF may be disposed on the network device.

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for user equipments and network components performing or assisting in packet filtering operations.

A method and an apparatus for allocating a resource are provided according to the embodiments. The method may include: extracting a resource category matching a target subserver and a required quota corresponding to the resource category from a request sent by a client side; determining a number of subservers is a subserver group receiving the request; determining a globally available quota and a total limit matching the resource category; determining a limit matching the resource category in the target subserver based on the total limit and the number of subservers; and performing resource allocation for a resource quantity corresponding to the required quota of the request based on a comparison between the required quota and the limit of the target subserver. The embodiment achieves reducing the number of applications for the globally available quota, thus accelerating processing the request by the server.
