  • Patent number: 11870648
    Abstract: A system and method systematically manage network devices. A memory stores a solution inventory list of network solutions of the network devices. An input/output device receives Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and commands. A parsing system validates the IP addresses and commands, and searches the solution inventory list for solutions based on the IP addresses. An interactive system performs natural language processing of interactions with the network devices, sets a timeout period, and executes the commands to implement the found solutions. A reporting system generates a report indicating that the commands are successfully executed. The input/output device outputs the report. A method implements the system.

  • Patent number: 11870744
    Abstract: Systems and methods are presented herein for modifying messages transmitted between a first computing device and a second computing device based on the determination of a context of messages transmitted between the first and second computing devices. A first message, prepared to be transmitted to a second computing device, is prepared at a first computing device. Based on an identifier corresponding to the second computing device, a plurality of devices communicably coupled to the second computing device are determined. Selectable options are generated at the first computing device which, when selected, determine which of the second computing device or one of the plurality of communicably coupled devices will receive the transmitted message. Based on the selection of an option, the message may be modified to fit the format of the device corresponding to the selected option and transmitted to the device corresponding to the selected option.

  • Patent number: 11831707
    Abstract: In a system, a load balancer transmits, to a selected content origin node, a first content request based on a first request for first requested content received from a client node, the selected content origin node transmits, to the load balancer, a first response to the first content request, wherein the selected content origin node has the first requested content, and the load balancer transmits, to the client node, a first redirect message identifying the selected content origin node as having the first requested content without transmitting the first requested content to the client node. In some implementations, the selected content origin node transmits the first redirect message as the first response. In other implementations, the first response from the selected content origin node contains the first requested content, and the load balancer converts the first response into the first redirect message.

  • Patent number: 11805284
    Abstract: Embodiments include a system and method for a real-time distributed Transport Stream (TS) analysis that utilizes many parts of an available network to concurrently monitor TSs across a geographic region. Embodiments include the selection of a profile for each combination of a TS and a collection point where the profile includes one or more sets of acceptable transmission values or ranges associated with the combination. The profile may include for example, program service information tables, service information, TS transmission parameters, and/or general TS quality index analysis rules. Embodiments include real-time concurrent monitoring and analysis of multiple TSs from collection points distributed throughout the geographic region. As services associated with the TSs at different collection points evolve, the respective profiles and rules adapt accordingly to maintain the quality of service and performance associated with respective TS and collection point combinations.

  • Patent number: 11805084
    Abstract: A bidirectional bridge for web view is a technical solution to an engineering challenge associated with presenting external content in a web view. A bidirectional bridge for web view facilitates bidirectional communication between the web view included in the messaging client and the messaging client itself. In response to a user action requesting a web page to be loaded in the web view, the bidirectional bridge initiates a request to messaging client to retrieve external content, receives the requested external content from the messaging client, and displays an image representing the external content in the web view as part of the web page.

  • Patent number: 11797800
    Abstract: A dynamic communication link provided. Briefly, a process aggregates content from content providers in the form of triggers (e.g., QR codes, newsfeeds, etc.). Here, the content is related to information of interest to users. In the example of newsfeeds, the process curates a newsfeed for a user by assembling articles, each article selected for the user based upon data in a user profile, data associated with the article, combinations thereof, etc. Upon initiation of the trigger, the communication platform initiates an ability to carry out a direct communication between the user and a specific representative of a content provider that is associated with the trigger, where the direct communication is independent of the trigger.
