Patent number: 12003424Abstract: Techniques for load balancing communication sessions in a networked computing environment are described herein. The techniques may include establishing a first communication session between a client device and a first computing resource of a networked computing environment. Additionally, the techniques may include storing, in a data store, data indicating that the first communication session is associated with the first computing resource. The techniques may further include receiving, at a second computing resource of the networked computing environment, traffic associated with a second communication session that was sent by the client device, and based at least in part on accessing the data stored in the data store, establishing a traffic redirect such that the traffic and additional traffic associated with the second communication session is sent from the second computing resource to the first computing resource.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2023Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Kyle Andrew Donald Mestery, Andree Toonk, Rahim Lalani, Ian James Wells

Publication number: 20240114015Abstract: An Internet Key Exchange protocol message indicating a first Internet Protocol Security traffic flow is to be established via a first device is obtained at the first device. The Internet Key Exchange protocol message is forwarded from the first device to a second device. An encryption key used to transmit traffic via the first Internet Protocol Security Traffic flow is received at the first device from a key value store. The key value store is populated with the encryption key in response to the second device obtaining the Internet Key Exchange protocol message. A first data packet to be transmitted via the first Internet Protocol Security traffic flow is obtained at the first device. The first device provides the first data packet encrypted with the encryption key of the first Internet Protocol Security traffic flow.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Andree Toonk, Grzegorz Boguslaw Duraj, Alvin Sai Weng Wong, Kyle Mestery
