  • Patent number: 11949596
    Abstract: Data defining egress bandwidth utilization on an interface of a node may be obtained and a congestion event may be detected based at least in part on an average interface utilization (Y) being greater than a first threshold (X1). A plurality of alternate links that can accommodate excess bandwidth without exceeding the first threshold may be identified. Flows associated with the plurality of alternate links may be filtered based at least in part on business logic macro flow filtering. It may be determined whether the plurality of alternate links pass a diffusing update algorithm (DUAL)-based loop-free path-finding algorithm (LPA) analysis for the destination node prefixes whether the destination node prefixes pass the DUAL-based LPA analysis for the at least one of the plurality of alternate links and a plurality of next hops associated with the at least one of the plurality of alternate links.

  • Patent number: 11924030
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards configuring a client device with client configuration data based on client context data. The configuration data can include endpoints of various services to which the client can connect that are appropriate for the client device based on the client context data, along with dimension information (route key values) for connecting to each such service. For example, a roaming client device can be given an endpoint and dimension information to connect to a content service in the roaming region, with a different endpoint and dimension information for communicating user information to a home region to which the user is affiliated. This facilitates single hop/reduced latency for content requests, and compliance with home regulations via a single hop to the home service.

  • Patent number: 11924286
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes circuitry that detects reception of first data from a connection source apparatus. The first data includes information about establishment of a session for encrypted communication between the source apparatus using a service and a connection destination apparatus providing the service. The circuitry converts the first data into a first message following a communication protocol in the session establishment, and converts a second message from the destination apparatus into second data including at least information for generating a common key for the encrypted communication. Before the session establishment, the circuitry transmits the first message to the destination apparatus and transmits the second data to the source apparatus. After the session establishment, the circuitry transmits service data from the source apparatus to the destination apparatus and from the destination apparatus to the source apparatus in an unconverted state.

  • Patent number: 11888737
    Abstract: Techniques for configuring a packet session are disclosed. An example method includes receiving, at a network function, a packet from a virtual connection device. The method also includes identifying, by the network function, an action to perform on the packet and modifying the header based on the action to create a modified packet with a modified header. The method also includes copying the modified packet from the network function to the virtual connection device for the virtual connection device to perform the action on the modified packet based on the modified header. The method also includes configuring, by a processing device executing the network function, the virtual connection device to perform the action on subsequent packets of the packet session. The virtual connection device performs the action on the subsequent packets without copying the subsequent packets to the network function.

  • Patent number: 11843476
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for controlling playback and/or recording of media assets at a media device based on the state of a secondary device. Specifically, while displaying a media asset, a media device receives a signal from the secondary device indicating a change of state of the secondary device. The media device displays a notification of the signal, and the user can interact with the notification. If the user interacts with the notification for more than a threshold amount of time, the media device may begin recording the media asset. Once the user has finished interacting with the notification, the media device may stop recording and the user can see content that they may have missed by reviewing the recorded portion of the media asset.

  • Patent number: 11843704
    Abstract: The present application relates to ensuring data consistency between a modular device and an external system. Techniques are described for ensuring data consistency between devices at a control device using configuration signatures. A control device can receive and store a baseline configuration signature for a first modular device. Upon initialization of the first modular device, the control device can receive a current configuration signature from the first modular device. The control device can compare the current configuration signature with the baseline configuration signature and, if a mismatch is found, generate a notification indicating that data subsequently received from the first modular device is of uncertain integrity.
