Embodiments for a method of implementing multiple domains in a network switching device are disclosed. The method includes assigning a plurality of hardware ports to a plurality of domains. Ports are assigned to at least two of the plurality of domains, and none of the ports are concurrently assigned to multiple domains. The method also includes loading rules for forwarding packets between the plurality of ports into a data plane. The rules direct the data plane to forward only between ports in a common domain of the plurality of domains. The method also includes assuring that a packet received at any port assigned to a first domain is not sent in legible form from any port assigned to a second domain if an error causes the data plane to forward or request forwarding the packet to any port assigned to a second domain.

A resource management method, a resource management system and a resource manager are disclosed, and the method includes: acquiring a resource allocation request, where the resource allocation request carries a resource requirement list and an access domain name of an application requesting allocation of resources; searching for a resource index locally according to the resource requirement list, and acquiring addresses of at least two available resources, where the at least two available resources are located at different platform as a service layer devices, respectively, and the two available resources both satisfy the resource requirement of the resource requirement list; establishing a correspondence between an address of each available resource and the access domain name; and configuring at least two access routes according to the correspondence, where an access route is used for routing an access request accessing the access domain name to the available resource.

Disclosed are systems and methods for providing policy selection in a software defined network. An example method includes registering, by an enterprise controller on an enterprise domain, in a shared mapping system on a service provider domain, one or more entries specifying one or more services for one or more classes of traffic to yield registered entries, reading, by a service provider controller, from the shared mapping system, the registered entries, posting, by the service provider controller, the one or more entries to one or more routing tables at a software-defined wide area network of the service provider domain and receiving a request, by a mobile node on the enterprise domain, of a specific service for a particular class of packets according to a classification of the particular class of packets based on a particular label defined in the registered entries for the specific service.

A method, computer program product, and computer system for determining, by a computing device, a service instance count for each of a plurality of services to be executed on a plurality of host devices. A similarity between the plurality of services may be determined. A host instance count for the plurality of host devices may be determined based upon, at least in part, the similarity between the plurality of services. Each service instance may be allocated to a respective host device for execution based upon, at least in part, the similarity between the plurality of services, the service instance count, and the host service count.

A method, apparatus and system for transferring data from an apparatus called multi-protocol gateway in a network seamlessly that operates using a particular protocol, to another device that is either in the same network or outside operating in a totally different protocol is described. Today, to accomplish this requires external units, one per technology. For example, for supporting both WiFi and WiMAX devices today, we would require a WiFi access point, a WiMAX base station and a router. We provide plug-ins that would handle multiple protocols within the same gateway, to cater to devices that operate in those protocols. The apparatus translates between various protocols in the back end making it inexpensive and portable. The unit is scalable, grows with technology, and acts as a gateway to a local network. The device can be configured to address Quality of Service, Priority between technologies and fault-tolerance through management layer.

The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for providing multiple networks from a gateway. A multiple network gateway system can include a gateway (e.g., a router) with the ability to support multiple, configurable, and customizable networks. The gateway can connect to a source (e.g., internet service provider (ISP), cable networks, OTA networks, satellite networks, etc.) and determine the bandwidth. Using the determined bandwidth, the gateway can allocate the bandwidth among the multiple networks according to a priority order of the networks. In some implementations, the gateway can receive customizable features from the user. Examples of the customizable features can include security options, parental controls, operational hours, MAC address specific operations, number of user limits, and internet usage tracking. The gateway can determine the priority of each network based on the customizable features.

The present disclosure provides a method and related devices for domain name bandwidth adjustment. The method includes: receiving domain name bandwidth information reported by each on-site bandwidth management server and based on the domain name bandwidth information, determining a target domain name having the domain name bandwidth exceeding a specified bandwidth threshold; determining a to-be-adjusted bandwidth corresponding to the target domain name, and allocating the to-be-adjusted bandwidth among a plurality of sites; determining a bandwidth control threshold of the target domain name for the corresponding site; and generating a flow control instruction containing the bandwidth control threshold, and sending the generated flow control instruction to the on-site bandwidth management server at the corresponding site, where the on-site bandwidth management server adjusts the domain name bandwidth of the target domain name in each node server at the site.

Techniques are provided for lock reservations for shared storage. A reserve command to reserve a storage structure is received by a driver from a node. The reserve command is formatted according to a storage protocol. The driver translates the reserve command into a lease acquire command formatted according to an object store protocol and targeting an object stored within an object store and corresponding to the storage structure. A lease identifier derived from a node identifier of the node is inserted into the lease acquire command. The lease acquire command is routed to the object store for obtaining a lease on the object for granting the node exclusive write access to the object.
