Abstract: Disclosed herein are related to dynamically adjusting a wake time and a sleep time for wireless communication between two or more devices to reduce power consumption. In one aspect, a first device enters a wake up state to wirelessly communicate with a second device for a service period with a determined duration scheduled according to a target wake time (TWT) protocol. In one aspect, the first device monitors for one or more indicators from the second device indicating that additional data is available for communication. In one aspect, the first device extends the service period beyond the determined duration, in response to receiving a first indicator of the one or more indicators. In one aspect, the first device communicates with the second device the additional data during the service period extended beyond the determined duration.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are related to coordinating communication among a first access point, a first station device, a second access point, and a second station device. In one aspect, the second access point receives, from the first access point, a first beacon of the first access point at a first beacon transmission time. The first beacon may indicate an offset between the first beacon transmission time of the first beacon and a first data transmission time of the first access point for communication between the first access point and a first station device. In one aspect, the second access point may determine, according to the offset, a second data transmission time of the second access point to be distinct from the first data transmission time of the first access point. The second access point may communicate with a second station device, according to the second data transmission time.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a virtual switch hosted at a first network device. The virtual switch is configured to receive a data packet from a first virtual resource hosted at the first network device to be sent to a second virtual resource hosted at a second network device. The virtual switch is configured to encapsulate the data packet to define an encapsulated data packet using a tunnel header, which has a first portion associated with the first and second network devices, and a second portion associated with a data flow between the first and second virtual resources when the data packet is sent from the first network device to the second network device. An Internet Protocol network can use the second portion of the tunnel header to load balance the data packet with respect to other data packets sent from the first network device to the second network device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for supporting Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) link aggregation groups (LAGs) between a server and a data center switch in a data center. The techniques enable an access switch in the data center switch to assign class identifiers to each member link in an FCoE LAG between an FCoE node (Enode) of the server and the access switch. In this way, the access switch is able to redirect FCoE traffic from a Fibre Channel forwarder (FCF) of a storage area network (SAN) toward the Enode on the correct member link of the FCoE LAG. The techniques also enable scaling of FCoE initialization protocol (FIP) and FCoE sessions by installing FIP snooping filters that use on a source media access control (MAC) address hit determination in ingress filter processors (IFPs) of the access switch to avoid session limitations of virtual local area network (VLAN) filter processors (VFPs).
