摘要： An apparatus comprising a first and a second functional entity operable for supporting traffic in, respectively, first and second traffic categories across a communications network. The second traffic category is associated with specific routing requirements. A network interface releases a request for a first address and a request for a second address. The request for a second address comprises data that is instrumental in causing the second address to be assigned by an address-assigning entity from a particular set of at least one address. The network is pre-configured to route traffic destined for a given address in the particular set of at least one address in accordance with the specific routing requirements. Receipt of the first address from the address-assigning entity enables the first functional entity to act as a receptor of traffic in the first traffic category, while receipt of the second address enables the second functional entity to act as a receptor of traffic in the second traffic category.

摘要： A data transfer system comprises interconnected network devices organized to constitute a hierarchical logical arrangement having at least three levels of network hierarchy. A network device (102) receives from another network device (101) that is higher at the hierarchy a first data item such as an IP-prefix defining a first set of network addresses such as IP-addresses. The network device composes second data items so that each of the second data items defines one of mutually non-overlapping sub-sets of the first set. The network device transmits the second data items to network devices (104, 105) that are lower at the hierarchy in order to allocate one of the sub-sets to each of these network devices at the lower level of the hierarchy. This procedure can be repeated on all levels of the network hierarchy. Thus, the address configuration can propagate downwards through the hierarchical logical arrangement of the network devices.

摘要： A system and method organize a network of communicating objects in at least one partition comprising a plurality of communication cells respectively covered by a plurality of leader nodes, the network having a set of allocatable addresses split into a plurality of address pools distributively managed by the leader nodes. Upon a new node arrival, phase (a) and possibly phase (b) are executed. During phase (a), if the new node detects a leader node, it allocates an address from its managed address pool and the new node assumes a member node roll in the leader node cell. If the new node does not detect any leader node in its vicinity, it goes on to the phase (b), wherein, if the new node detects a first cell member node, it assumes the role of leader covering a second cell, obtains an available pool of managed addresses and is allocated one of the obtained addresses.

摘要： The preferred method involves segmenting the routable IP address space of a Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS) to identify clients requiring differentiated QoS by assigning IP addresses from reserved ranges. The IP addresses are assigned to home clients/the Wi-Fi AP and roaming users based on special DHCP options inserted by the Wi-Fi AP DHCP Proxy software on behalf the Wi-Fi AP and home client devices and roaming devices using the Wi-Fi AP. This creates potentially multiple service classes whereby IP addresses from the reserved ranges are included in traffic classifiers that cause packets to map to service flows which provide for differentiated QoS to the Wi-Fi AP owner, home clients and roaming users on the cable access network.

摘要： In general, techniques are described for summarizing label mappings and thereby enabling longest-prefix match within Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks. More specifically, a first router included within a first area of a network comprises a control unit that maintains a label space defining labels available for mapping to a plurality of addresses assigned to network devices within the network. The control unit reserves a contiguous set of the labels of the label space and maps the contiguous set of labels to first area addresses. The first area addresses include those addresses of the plurality of addresses available for assignment to network devices within the first area. The first router also includes an interface card that transmits, to a second router of a second area of the network, an advertisement that advertises a summarized version of the mapping between the contiguous set of labels and the first area addresses.

摘要： Automatically allocating, modifying, and deleting IP pools for use by network equipment. The network equipment is repeatedly, periodically, or continuously monitored to detect IP pool utilization. If the monitoring indicates an increase in IP pool utilization above a first predetermined threshold, a quantity of required IP pools is forecasted. The forecasted quantity of required IP pools is removed from an inventory of available IP pools and automatically assigned to the network equipment.

摘要： An authorization assisting device sends to the VBN server an authorization request for access to the WAN by a requesting user device. A registration driver has a set of assignable IP address ranges for multiple routing realms, and assigns an IP address to a user device from a relevant IP address range depending on a routing realm from which communication from the user device is received. The assignable IP address ranges include one or more authorization address ranges from which the registration driver assigns an IP address to a user device whose authorization request is received from the authorization assisting device. An authorization module processes the authorization request to generate an authorization response granting or denying access to the WAN by the requesting user device based on registration data in a registration data store and the information in the authorization request.
