A proxy server receives from a client device a request for a network resource that is hosted at an origin server for a domain. The request is received at the proxy server as a result of a DNS request for the domain resolving to the proxy server. The origin server is one of multiple origin servers that belong to different domains that resolve to the proxy server and are owned by different entities. The proxy server retrieves the requested network resource. The proxy server determines that the requested resource is an HTML page. The proxy server scans the HTML page to locate one or more modification tokens that each indicates content that is subject to being modified. For at least one of the located modification tokens, the proxy server automatically modifies at least a portion of the content of the HTML page that corresponds to that modification token. The proxy server then transmits the modified HTML page to the client device.

An Internet infrastructure delivery platform operated by a provider enables HTTP-based service to identified third parties at large scale. The platform provides this service to one or more cloud providers. The approach enables the CDN platform provider (the first party) to service third party traffic on behalf of the cloud provider (the second party). In operation, an edge server handling mechanism leverages DNS to determine if a request with an unknown host header should be serviced. Before serving a response, and assuming the host header includes an unrecognized name, the edge server resolves the host header and obtains an intermediate response, typically a list of aliases (e.g., DNS CNAMEs). The edge server checks the returned CNAME list to determine how to respond to the original request. Using just a single edge configuration, the CDN service provider can support instant provisioning of a cloud provider's identified third party traffic.

Embodiments contemplate wireless communication that may include sending machine type communication (MTC) application data from a services capability server (SCS) to an MTC user equipment (UE/WTRU) using a device trigger. The device trigger may be used to instruct an MTC device application to initiate communications with an SCS. Embodiments also contemplate that a first device trigger (DT) request may be received from a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a machine-type-communication inter-working function (MTC-IWF) may be determined in response to the first DT request. A second DT request may be sent to the MTC-IWF; and a first DT response may be received from the MTC-IWF. The first DT response may include a first information regarding a second WTRU.

A method of performing communication with a second communication device by a first communication device is provided. The method includes identifying an Internet Protocol (IP) address for communication with a first communication network, providing data including the IP address to the second communication device connected through a second communication network, and executing a communication application being connected with the second communication device via the first communication network using the IP address.

It is provided a method, comprising monitoring, for each of plural attempts of a web identity to register for an internet protocol multimedia service, if the respective attempt is received; generating, for each of the plural attempts if the respective attempt is received, a respective private user identification based on the web identity and a respective distinguishing identifier, wherein probability that two of the private user identifications have a same value is less than a predefined limit; providing the respective private user identification in response to the respective attempt.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for performing communication in software-defined networking, and a communications system. The method includes: receiving a message sent by a network device, where the message includes a signaling message; determining, according to a control policy, a matching condition that matches the message, where the control policy includes a matching condition and operation information corresponding to the matching condition; processing the message according to the operation information corresponding to the matching condition that matches the message; and sending the processed message to the network device. According to the method and the apparatus for performing communication in software-defined networking, and the communications system in the present disclosure, a problem in the prior art that a control device serving as a network control center cannot communicate with a base station is resolved.

Systems and methods for increasing layer 2 visibility of layer 3 network devices so as to facilitate implementation of device-oriented policy actions by layer 3 network devices are provided. According to one embodiment, unique physical addresses of one or more host devices are retrieved by a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) agent that is operatively coupled with a DHCP server. The physical addresses are mapped to corresponding Internet Protocol (IP) addresses assigned by the DHCP server to the one or more host devices. The mapping is relayed directly or indirectly to a network security device. Network traffic management/security policies are defined within the network security device corresponding to at least one of the unique physical addresses.

Described are methods, systems and computer readable media for performance logging of complex query operations.

A network device is configured to provide, via an Ethernet segment with a customer network, active-active multi-homing L2 virtual bridge connectivity to the customer network using an EVPN instance (EVI) and L3 routing using an IRB interface that is a L3 routing interface assigned to the EVI; to receive, from a peer PE device of the EVPN instance, an EVPN route comprising an L2-L3 binding for a customer device of the customer network and associating the L2-L3 binding with the Ethernet segment, the L2-L3 binding comprising an L2 and an L3 address assigned to the customer device, wherein the peer PE device provides, with the network device and via the Ethernet segment, active-active multi-homing L2 virtual bridge connectivity to the customer network; and to forward, via the Ethernet segment and based at least on the L2-L3 binding received from the peer PE device, an L3 packet to the customer device.

A flock of drones provide a drone-assisted mesh network for first responders. Network modules attached to the drones interconnect with other network modules and provide network access points for first responder devices, allowing the first responder devices to communicate with each other via the drone-assisted mesh network. The drones may autonomously reposition themselves to create a desired network coverages area, including adjusting the network coverage area as instructed via a drone controller. The network modules may communicate with a gateway to an external network, allowing first responder devices to communicate with the external network via the drone-assisted mesh network. Network modules may be selected for field-attachment to the drones based on characteristics of the first responder devices.
