The communications access point may determine that the user device is moving from the first location to a second location where access to the wireless network is limited or not available.

Abstract: The InfiniBand transport protocol supports the concept of a SRQ (shared receive queue) by which multiple QPs (queue pairs) can share the same receive queue resources. According to the InfiniBand Specification, when a SRQ is enabled, flow control needs to be disabled. The lack of flow control mechanism results in there being no fairness guarantees across multiple requesters. Fairness across requesters can be obtained by implementing a SRQ configured to receive request messages from requesters initiating transactions that consume WQEs (work queue elements) of the SRQ, monitoring consumption of the WQEs by the requesters, determining that a requester has a WQE consumption exceeding a policing threshold, and in response to determining that the WQE consumption of the requester exceeds the policing threshold, sending a response message to the requester that results in reducing the WQE consumption of the requester.

Abstract: A software-defined network (SDN) rule modification counter system provides counters that track all changes and edits to rules at SDN controllers and SDN switches on an SDN. The system compares counters at the SDN controller and SDN switch to determine if they match. If the counters do not match, a change has been made to the rules. With the addition of rule edit statistics the SDN controller will now have visibility that a rule modification was performed. The SDN controller then verifies that the state of the device is the same as its expected state as a secondary integrity check. Based on the rule modification notification, changes to a central rules table at the SDN controller and changes to rule settings at the SDN switch are made according to pre-programmed logic.

A controller of the system can establish, using the transceiver, a telemedicine session with the operations center using a Transport Morphing Protocol (TMP), the TMP being an acknowledgement-based user datagram protocol. The controller can also mask one or more transient network degradations to increase resiliency of the telemedicine session.

Abstract: In some implementations, a provider edge device associated with a link aggregation group (LAG) may maintain, according to a link aggregation control protocol (LACP), a set of links that connect the PE device to a consumer edge device. The provider edge device may determine that the provider edge device and another provider edge device associated with the LAG are not receiving link aggregation control protocol data units (LACPDUs) from the consumer edge device. The provider edge device may cause the set of links to have a maintain LAG status, which causes the provider edge device to keep up the set of links and to cease maintaining the set of links according to the LACP. The provider edge device may route, based on causing the set of links to have the maintain LAG status, one or more packets to or from the consumer edge device via the set of links.
