Abstract: Described herein are apparatus and methods for detecting and handling Proxy-Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF) failures. A method may include sending, by a serving-CSCF (S-CSCF), a message to the P-CSCF to check operability. The S-CSCF may mark in a list that the P-CSCF is unavailable if a negative response or no response is received from the P-CSCF and may set a timer to recheck availability of the unavailable P-CSCF. A message is sent by the S-CSCF to a device management system to force a user device to stop using the unavailable P-CSCF and register with a different P-CSCF. The S-CSCF may recheck availability of the unavailable P-CSCF upon expiration of the timer and may remove the unavailable P-CSCF from the list when a positive response is received from the unavailable P-CSCF.

Abstract: Improved methods for retrieval of content from CDNs is provided that includes a rendezvous controller that receives information of an identification of content being requested and an estimated location of a content requesting device. Based on this information, the rendezvous system identifies a server within a CDN from which the requested content may be retrieved. The selected server may be based on a repeatable hash function such that the likelihood that the content being requested is cached at the selected server. Steering requests to a server of the CDN which may have the content cached may reduce the number of servers within the CDN with the same cached content, particularly for the highest requested content. The rendezvous system may then return a corresponding domain name associated with the selected server and that can be subsequently submitted to a DNS for resolution to the IP address of the identified server.

Abstract: A method for setup of a network device and a system thereof are provided. The method is operated in a gateway device in a LAN. In the method, a software sequence operated in the gateway device receives packets generated by a terminal device in the LAN. After analyzing the packets, a message for triggering a setting process is generated if an event in compliance with a trigger condition is determined from the packets. The message for triggering a setting process is transmitted to a default setup device. The setup device is such as a computer device that allows the user to set up parameters according to an event requirement. When the network device receives the parameters, a corresponding function in the network device is re-activated.
