Abstract: Methods and systems for providing customizable network device management are disclosed. In one such method, a user-created policy is received and registered on a network device, such as a router. An event identified by the policy is detected at the network device. In response, the policy runs on the network device and an action specified by the policy is performed. The policy can be prepared by a user of a remote computing device, uploaded to the network device, and registered on the network device. In various implementations, the policy can be provided in the form of a script or applet executable by the network device.

Abstract: A method of transmitting delay sensitive information over Internet Protocol (IP) over Frame Relay including storing the information in an IP packet, storing the IP packet in a sub-frame, storing a special symbol representing that the frame is delay sensitive in the sub-frame, storing the sub-frame in a frame, storing a network layer protocol identification representing that the frame contains IP information in the frame, and transmitting the frame over a Frame Relay Network, distinguishing delay sensitive information from non-delay sensitive information by examining the special symbol. Additionally, in systems using the FRF.12 or similar fragmenting standard, the special symbol may be stored in the header of the fragment.
