    摘要: An improved system and method for achieving high precision clock recovery, i.e. reconstruction of the clock signal having the same frequency, over a packet switched network. The proposed method utilizes a minimum network delay approach, which overcomes the problems caused by delay variation of the network and filters out network jitter, such as noise jitter and other “singular” anomalies causing latency deviations. Minimum network delay is defined herein as the time delay in which a packet remains in the network under assumption that all transmission queues through which the packet passes are empty. The proposed system and method perform clock recovery by including an improvement in the form of dynamically varying thresholds. Reconstruction of the clock signal is performed in accordance with the minimum network delay estimation based on an adjustable threshold, i.e., the latency change threshold, which increases when the noise threshold increases and decreases when the noise threshold decreases. This allows detection of latency changes in accordance with the dynamically varying network conditions and avoids false latency change detections.

    摘要: A method of managing connectivity between an end-device and one of a plurality of bridging-devices connected to the end-device. The method includes transmitting test messages by each of the bridging-devices, transmitting test messages by the end-device, determining, in each of the bridging-devices, with which of the other devices there is an operative connection, based on the test messages the bridging-device receives and determining, in each of the bridging-devices, whether a port leading to the end-device should be in a forwarding or blocking state responsive to the determination of the operative connections.

    摘要: A method of managing connectivity of a cluster of bridging-devices including a plurality of links. The method includes pre-designating at least one of the links as a redundant link which is blocked when all the other links are operative and connected in accordance with a predetermined scheme, determining connectivity data on the connectivity of the links of the cluster, and activating or blocking the pre-designated redundant at least one link responsive to the connectivity data.
