    摘要: An example electronic device includes a component device. The electronic device also includes a first communication device to: transmit an identifier of the component device to an intermediary device; and receive, from the intermediary device, network information, where the network information is generated based on the identifier and location information of the electronic device. The electronic device also includes a second communication device to communicate with a server using the network information.

    摘要: One or more embodiments provide techniques that permit virtual computing instances in isolated environments to communicate information outside the isolated environments without requiring networking. In one embodiment, an encoder which runs in a virtual machine (VM) within an isolated environment, such as one of the VMs of a packaged virtual machine application that does not have external network connectivity, is configured to encode information, such as state information of the packaged virtual machine application, in portion(s) of a network address. The encoder further configures an unconnected network interface of the same VM, or another VM in the isolated environment, with the network address that includes the encoded information. A decoder, which could not otherwise communicate with the virtual computing instance via any network, may then retrieve the network address assigned to the unconnected network interface and decode that network address to obtain the information encoded therein.

    摘要: A method for assigning identifiers to switches in a stack includes detecting, by a switch, a terminal identifier stored in an optical module that is connected to a stack port of the switch, where the optical module is at one end of an optical cable; and if a condition is met, assigning, by the switch, identifiers to N stackable switches along a direction starting from the switch to another switch connected to the stack port, where the condition includes: a value of the terminal identifier is a specified value, and N is greater than or equal to 2. According to this application, an efficiency of assigning the identifiers to the switches in a stack can be improved.

    摘要: Methods, computer program products, computer systems, and the like are disclosed that provide for storage network configuration and maintenance in an efficient and effective manner. For example, such methods, computer program products, and computer systems can include selecting a selected network interface of a plurality of network interfaces of a node, generating a configuration package, and sending the configuration package on the selected network interface. In such embodiments, the node is one of a plurality of nodes in a storage cluster, and communicates with one or more other nodes of the plurality of nodes via the selected network interface. The configuration package includes a node identifier and node configuration information. The node identifier uniquely identifies the node among the plurality of nodes.
