Patent number: 11722559Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide novel methods for performing services on data messages passing through a network connecting one or more datacenters, such as software defined datacenters (SDDCs). The method of some embodiments uses service containers executing on host computers to perform different chains (e.g., ordered sequences) of services on different data message flows. For a data message of a particular data message flow that is received or generated at a host computer, the method in some embodiments uses a service classifier executing on the host computer to identify a service chain that specifies several services to perform on the data message. For each service in the identified service chain, the service classifier identifies a service container for performing the service. The service classifier then forwards the data message to a service forwarding element to forward the data message through the service containers identified for the identified service chain.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Jeremy Tidemann, Constantine Polychronopoulos, Marc-Andre Bordeleau, Edward Choh, Ojas Gupta, Robert Kidd, Raja Kommula, Georgios Oikonomou, Mingjie Zhao

Patent number: 11689971Abstract: A mechanism to help control connectivity of a user equipment device (UE). When the UE is served by a master node (MN) that does not support VOP service, the MN will cause the UE to not have a secondary connection with a secondary node (SN) that would engage in control-plane signaling with the UE via the UE's master connection with the MN. For instance, in that situation, the MN could avoid setting up the secondary connection for the UE in the first place. Or if the secondary connection exists already, the MN could tear down that secondary connection. By causing the secondary connection to not exist, the mechanism may help to avoid problems with operation of the secondary connection as a result of the UE tuning away to facilitate voice service.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: Sprint Spectrum LLCInventors: Sougata Saha, Nick J.
