  • Patent number: 12063574
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for reliable delivery of enhanced broadcast services (EBCS) downlink (DL) packets to wireless stations (STAs) that support EBCS (also referred to as “EBCS STAs”) and maintaining interoperability with STAs that do not support EBCS. A wireless communication device may broadcast one or more EBCS DL packets carrying data associated with an EBCS service. In some aspects, the wireless communication device may subsequently transmit a trigger frame soliciting information indicating which, if any, of the EBCS DL packets were missed by EBCS STAs in the vicinity. In some other aspects, each EBCS DL packet may carry signaling indicating that the broadcast data is intended only for EBCS STAs. Still further, in some aspects, the wireless communication device may broadcast an EBCS traffic advertisement indicating a timing of the one or more EBCS DL packets.

  • Patent number: 12021754
    Abstract: Techniques for creating consent contracts for devices that indicate whether the devices consent to receiving network-based communications from other devices. Further, the techniques include enforcing the consent contracts such that network-based communications are either allowed or disallowed in the network-communications layer prior to the network communications reaching the devices. Rather than simply allowing a device to communicate with any other device over a network, the techniques described herein include building in consent for network-based communications where the consent is consulted at one or more points in a communication process to make informed decisions about network-based traffic.

  • Patent number: 12010016
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a data stream transmission method. The method includes a sending device that dynamically determines a packet-loss-concealment policy based on first path status information of a path used to send a data stream. The sending device generates a packet-loss-concealment packet for the data stream according to the packet-loss-concealment policy. The sending device sends the data stream on the path. The data stream includes an original packet and the packet-loss-concealment packet. Therefore, when receiving the data stream, a receiving device decodes the data stream according to the packet-loss-concealment policy received from the sending device, and recovers, by using the packet-loss-concealment packet, an original packet lost in a transmission process. This effectively improves a packet loss recovery effect, and improves user experience.

  • Patent number: 11991074
    Abstract: Disclosed is a mechanism for implementing link state flooding reduction (LSFR) in an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) network. The mechanism includes receiving data indicating connectivity of a plurality of nodes in the network. A flooding topology is built based on the connectivity. This includes selecting one of the nodes as a root node, and building a tree of links connecting the root node to the nodes in the network. The flooding topology is stored in a memory. The flooding topology may not be to the remaining nodes in the network. Link state messages may then be flooded over the flooding topology.

  • Patent number: 11924080
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method of identifying packet latency in a software defined datacenter (SDDC) that includes a network and multiple host computers executing multiple machines. At a first host computer, the method identifies and stores (i) multiple time values associated with several packet processing operations performed on a particular packet sent by a first machine executing on the first host computer, and (ii) a time value associated with packet transmission through the SDDC network from the first host computer to a second host computer that is a destination of the particular packet. The method provides the stored time values to a set of one or more controllers to process to identify multiple latencies experienced by multiple packets processed in the SDDC.

  • Patent number: 11909654
    Abstract: Techniques for optimizing segment routing (SR) paths using segment identifiers (SIDs) are disclosed, including determining a packet is to be sent from a first node to a second node of a network using an SR method. The techniques may also include determining a segment quantization factor that is representative of a first number of SIDs that are included in a segment quantization interval. Based at least in part on the segment quantization factor and a cost constraint, an SR path defined by a second number of SIDs to send the packet may be determined. The second number of SIDs may be associated with maximizing the SIDs included in individual ones of segment quantization intervals. The techniques further include modifying the packet to include at least the second number of SIDs and causing the packet to flow from the first node to the second node via the SR path.
