Abstract: A method is disclosed for the collection of performance metrics by establishing service operations administration and maintenance (OAM) sessions between an actuator and a plurality of reflectors in a communication network. Test packets from an actuator simultaneously reach a plurality of reflectors along a test path. Each single test packet results into a plurality of test results, one per reflector, with quasi-synchronous performance metrics to sectionalize a network and more efficiently isolate fault or performance problems without the need for additional test packets to isolate the issue. Another method is disclosed wherein an actuator generates and transmits a plurality of simultaneous test packets, one per NID device, resulting into a plurality of test results, one per reflector, with quasi-synchronous performance metrics to sectionalize a network and more efficiently isolate fault or performance problems without the need for additional test packets to isolate the issue.

Abstract: A conversation interface system provides remote access to manufacturing operation information using plain language message exchange. A cloud-based conversation interface service is exposed to an instant messaging application, and receives plain language queries from via the instant messaging application's interface requesting information relating to one or more industrial systems. The cloud-based system synchronizes the queries to one or more on-premise conversation interface agent devices residing at one or more plant facilities. The on-premise agent devices translate the queries and apply the translated queries to local sources of manufacturing operation data. The on-premise agent devices then generate and return response messages based on the retrieved information, and the cloud-based system directs the response messages the originators of the queries via the instant messaging interface.

Abstract: In various exemplary embodiments, a system and an associated method for presenting a commerce application to an electronic device of an end-user. The method includes establishing electronic communications from the end-user to a first server (e.g., an electronic marketplace) in response to the end-user accessing a widget presented by the first server, and establishing electronic communications between the first server and a second server. The second server may be another electronic marketplace. The first server sends a chrome to the end-user. Substantially concurrent with the first server sending a chrome, the second server transmits electronically an Iframe to be placed within the chrome on a browser on an electronic device of the end-user. The blending of the chrome and the Iframe is transparent to the end user; thus, the end-user may be unaware that additional information (e.g., in terms of the Iframe and any accompanying metadata) is being received from the second server.

Abstract: A method performed by a transmitting device is disclosed herein. The transmitting device operates in a communications network. The transmitting device performs a reset on a buffer of the transmitting device. The transmitting device then switches, based on the performed reset, a first value in an indication to a second value. The indication is of the reset of the buffer. The transmitting device sets the indication to the second value for all packets generated by the transmitting device after the performed reset. This is set until the second value is switched again by the transmitting device in another indication, based on another performed reset of the buffer. The transmitting device then sends the indication with the second value to a receiving device operating in the communications network. The second value indicates that the reset was performed by the transmitting device.

The control messages can include medium access control (MAC) management messages and/or tag-length-value (TLV) messages.

Abstract: A new rack equipped with at least one ToR switch is pushed into operational mode in a datacenter equipped with at least one operational datacenter switch. A script server fetches from a database information about a first networking configuration of the datacenter switch, and a minimal profile information of the rack. The script server devises a physical cabling plan between the ToR switch and the datacenter switch, reserves ports on the datacenter switch, computes and stores into the database enriched information of the rack, and provides cabling instructions relative to the physical cabling plan to a datacenter technician. The script server fills-in a configuration template, and causes a configuration builder to apply a first networking configuration of the ToR switch, applies a second networking configuration to the datacenter switch, pushes the rack into production, completes a second networking configuration of the ToR switch, and pushes the rack into operational mode.
