An apparatus for correcting MAC addresses includes a device port for connecting to a computing device with a colliding MAC address with potential to collide with MAC addresses of other computing devices within a computer network. The apparatus includes a network port for connecting to a network device connected to other computing devices. A reassignment module is configured to assign a non-colliding MAC address in place of the colliding MAC address of the computing device and a replacement module is configured to replace the colliding MAC address of a datagram received on the device port with the non-colliding MAC address and transmit the datagram with the non-colliding MAC address from the network port to the network device, and to replace the non-colliding MAC address of a datagram received on the network port with the colliding MAC address and transmit the datagram with the colliding MAC address to the computing device.

A method for verifying eligibility of a domain name registrant via a verification web interface for a domain name either registered or in the process of registration with a registrar over a communications network. The method comprising: provide a network link to the registrar or to a registry operator of the domain name; receive an event request for the domain name via the verification web interface including a claim ID associated with the domain name for a domain event; receive a verification request using the network link via the verification web interface including a registrant claim ID and registrant identification information, the registrant claim ID previously provided to the registrant; confirm matching of the registrant claim ID with the claim ID; obtain registrant verification information; access external verification information and compare against the registrant verification information a confirm domain event message or a deny domain event message.

System, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable medium for generating a verification code related to a registry operation request are provided. A verification process may be performed to determine if a verification request related to a registry operation is to be approved. If the request is to be approved, a verification code is generated that includes identifying information of a verification service provider and a code indicating that the request has been verified.

A method for providing a verification process for verifying eligibility of a domain name registrant via a verification web interface for a domain name either registered or in the process of registration with a registrar over a communications network. The method comprises: providing a network link to the registrar or to a registry operator of the domain name, the network link of the communications network for the verification web interface for use by the registrant in connecting with the verification web interface; receive an event request for the domain name via the verification web interface from either the registrar or a registry operator of the domain name, the event request including a claim ID associated with the domain name for a domain event on the domain name; receiving a verification request from the registrant using the network link via the verification web interface, the verification request including a registrant claim ID and registrant identification information, the registrant claim ID previously provided to the registrant by the registrar or the registry operator as part of the verification process; confirming matching of the registrant claim ID with the claim ID; obtaining registrant verification information; accessing external verification information and comparing against the registrant verification information using a set of verification rules in order to determine whether the eligibility is: confirmed when the registrant verification information matches the external verification information; or unconfirmed when the registrant verification information does not match the external verification information as a result of said compare; and sending to either the registrar or the registry operator: a confirm domain event message if the eligibility is confirmed; or a deny domain event message if the eligibility is unconfirmed.

A rules engine is adapted for analyzing each match produced by a domain discovery system as matching a seed domain. Utilizing a natural language processing (NLP) library, the rules engine determines segments from the match, assigns a lexical category to each segment based on the context in how a seed domain string is used, and compares the lexical category of the segment that is closest to the seed domain string with a lexical category of the seed domain string. Based on the comparing, the rules engine determines whether the match is relevant to the seed domain and, if not, the match produced by the domain discovery system is identified as a false positive and automatically removed from a set of matches produced by the domain discovery system for the seed domain.

Provided are a method for establishing a WLAN by a mobile terminal and a mobile terminal. The method comprises: when the mobile terminal needs to establish a WLAN with other terminals, the mobile terminal starts Bluetooth, and modifies a name of a Bluetooth device of the mobile terminal to a character string that contains an identifier; and starts Bluetooth search to acquire Bluetooth MAC addresses of other terminals with the identifiers contained in the name of the Bluetooth device; and a Bluetooth MAC address of the mobile terminal is compared with the acquired Bluetooth MAC addresses respectively, and when the Bluetooth MAC address of the mobile terminal meets a pre-set condition, setting the mobile terminal as a wireless access point of the WLAN.

Disclosed is a domain engineering analysis solution that determines relevance of a domain name to a brand name in which a domain name, brand name, and identification of a substring of the domain name may be provided to or obtained by a computer embodying a domain engineering analyzer. A list of features may be determined. The list of features may include a lexicon, or a set of key-value pairs that encode information about terms included as substrings in the domain name. Determining the features may include obtaining a language model for each term, analyzing a cluster of language models closest to the obtained language model, and determining and scoring a relevance of each term to the brand name. The determined relevance and score of each term may be provided to a client. This relevance analysis can be dynamically applied in an online process or proactively applied in an offline process.

A device and method in a wireless communication system, the device including an access determination unit configured to determine an access requirement of a user equipment (UE); and a control unit configured to switch a target small cell of the device from a closed state to an open state based on the access requirement of the UE, and reallocate to the target small cell a new physical cell identifier different from the physical cell identifier used in the closed state. A physical cell identifier can be dynamically allocated in accordance with the open/closed state of the small cell, reducing the burden of cell planning and maintenance cost, and having greater flexibility.

The technology disclosed relates to resolution of conflicts between a requested internet service, requested by an internet service requesting server, and a package internet services. The method disclosed includes sending a conflict check result message to an internet service requesting server, indicating a presence of a conflict between a requested internet service requested by the requesting server and a package of internet services. The method includes receiving from the internet service requesting server a response including a selection from (i) an alternate internet service in the package of internet services to substitute for the requested internet service; (ii) a request to replace an existing connection with a service in the package of internet services with the requested internet service; and (iii) a request to initiate a custom resolution application. The method then responsively performs a respective conflict resolution step.
