Patent number: 8503396Abstract: To enable a network apparatus to detect L3 roaming users and to take appropriate forwarding actions, L3 knowledge is introduced inside an L2 bridge forwarding table in the network apparatus. As a client moves from a subnet associated with a first network element to a subnet associated with the network apparatus, a determination is made regarding whether the client is roaming by evaluating a source IP address within a L3 packet header within a first frame received at the network apparatus. If, as a result of the evaluating step, it is determined that the client is roaming, the L2 bridge forwarding table is configured to include a source MAC address of the client together with information identifying a destination interface for use in directing client data traffic back towards the subnet associated with the first network element.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2011Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Richard H.

Patent number: 8504022Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for identifying areas of outbound roaming on a wireless network are disclosed. A roaming-network event record listing roaming events of subscribers of a home network is received. A home-network event record listing network events on a home network is also received. The two records are correlated to identify roaming events and network events having matching caller identifiers and time stamps within a predetermined range. Location data of a network event is adopted as location data for a matching roaming event. A home-network wireless-communications antenna, tower, or station having a service area in which a concentration of roaming events have occurred is identified. The distance of the roaming events from the antenna is determined and distance bands corresponding to that distance are plotted on a map to aid in identifying locations at which outbound roaming has occurred.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2011Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Jason Peter Sigg, Anoop Kumar Goyal, Mark Lee Yarkosky, Joe Ben Quint, Scott David Boxberger, Thomas James Linnemeyer
