Abstract: Techniques for binding communication flows to unique addresses and/or ports, and configuring networking devices internal to a network to apply policy without the need to further introspect a given stream. Further, by creating mappings of unique addresses and/or ports to flows, the network devices are able to enforce policy without needing to coordinate with an edge node of the network at which the communication session terminates. Further, the techniques may include providing an SDN controller with a mapping between a unique address/port and a network flow, determining flow-specific policy to enforce on the flow, and programming one or more network devices to enforce the flow-specific policy in the network using the unique address/port.

Abstract: Network connected devices are controlled via the transmission of action messages to prevent or correct conditions that impair the operation of the networked information technology (IT) assets. The service monitoring system (SMS) monitoring the IT environment groups together related notable events that are received during system operation. Automatic processes dynamically determine grouping operations that automatically correlate the events without requiring, for example, a set of declarative grouping rules. Event grouping may be performed on a by-service basis to facilitate the complex processing of predicting undesirable system conditions that may be prevented or reduced by transmission of the action messages to the appropriate assets. Event grouping operations may be directed with control information maintained via user interface.

Abstract: A proxy server (700) receives, from a sending device, a packet intended for a receiving device (600). The proxy sewer (700) sends, to the receiving device (600), a promise frame (300) indicating that the proxy server (700) will deliver the packet to the receiving device (600) later. The receiving device (600) receives the promise frame (300) from the proxy server (700), and sends an acknowledgement of the packet to the sending device via the proxy sewer (700). The proxy server (700) forwards the acknowledgement of the packet from the receiving device (600) to the sending device, and delivers the packet to the receiving device (600) after having forwarded the acknowledgement to the sending device. The receiving device (600) receives the packet from the proxy server (700) after having sent the acknowledgement of the packet to the sending device via the proxy server (700).

Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, machine-readable mediums that provide for multiple concurrent message input elements in a messaging application to allow for saved draft messages. The improved interfaces allow a user to compose separate, respective responses to multiple incoming messages of a same messaging thread. As noted, the current messaging user interface (UI) only allows users to compose a response to a single message of a same messaging thread. In the present disclosed interface, if during composition of a “reply” to message A, and a user decides to first reply to message B, the in-process reply message is saved in a separate selectable input element. The user may edit and send the reply to message A at a later time—e.g., once they are done replying to message B. In some examples, the separate selectable input element may be positioned in the thread in a manner to indicate that it is a draft reply message and to which message it is a reply.

Abstract: A location of a client in a private network where the client has a plurality of interfaces for using a plurality of internet gateways for coupling with the public internet can be determined by sending, from the client, a plurality of STUN BINDING requests to a STUN server connected to the public internet that each exit through an individual internet gateway, receiving, at the client, a plurality of STUN BINDING responses from the STUN server that each include public IP address mapped to the internet gateway through which the STUN BINDING request has exited the private network, sending, from the client, a plurality of location requests that each include a mapped public IP address and the corresponding private IP address, to a location server for looking up location data for the respective private IP addresses so the client can receive location data relating to the public IP addresses.

Abstract: A data transmission method, apparatus, and device, and a computer storage medium are provided. The method includes: obtaining an application packet of a target application; transmitting the application packet to a first routing device by using a network data channel, and transmitting, by using the first routing device, the application packet to a proxy server; meanwhile, transmitting the same application packet to a second routing device by using a short-range wireless data channel different from the network data channel, and transmitting, by using the second routing device, the application packet to the proxy server. The proxy server performs, a deduplication mechanism on the application packet and transmit the application packet to an application server corresponding to the target application.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for evaluation of networks and changes thereto using automated analysis of network models. The automated analysis can be used to determine how to implement and mutate networks efficiently and effectively, to determine whether and why network resources are unable to communicate with each other, and the like. Automated analysis can allow users (e.g., network administrators) to define networks and pose changes to networks using high-level policies (e.g., written in a declarative language), have those polices automatically translated to lower-level implementation operations for analysis, and in some cases have results of the analysis presented back to the users in an easy-to-understand form.

Abstract: Dynamic content can be delivered via email. Email messages include HTML content with one or more hyperlinks referring to a network-connected dynamic content server. The hyperlinks are accessed upon rendering of the email on a client device, triggering a request to a dynamic content server. The dynamic content server determines a content item to be served in response to the request. The dynamic content item determination may be based on factors including the identity of the requester, the email communication in which the hyperlink is embedded, recent activities or behavior on the part of the requester, and/or known preference or demographic information associated with the requester. The request can be directed to a selected content item stored within a content delivery network, for transmission back to the requester and display to the user within the email.

Abstract: Routing of a traffic in a fabric network may be provided. A first traffic may be received at a first node. It may be determined that the first traffic is coming from a provider virtual network. In response to determining that the first traffic is coming from the provider virtual network, it may be determined that a first subnet associated with the first traffic is associated with a subscriber virtual network. In response to determining that the first subnet associated with the first traffic is associated with the subscriber virtual network, a first virtual network associated with the first traffic may be changed to the subscriber virtual network. A lookup for the first traffic may be changed to a first virtual routing and forwarding of the subscriber virtual network.
