  • Providing dynamic quality of service for applications accessed over a network
    Patent number: 8953613
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) for connections to applications over a network are provided. The method receives a message associated with the application, wherein the message includes information identifying the connection to the application and information about the application. The method then determines, based on a set of rules defined for the application, a QoS level to apply to the connection, and applies the determined QoS level to the connection. The QoS applied to the connection corresponds to the application and not the QoS associated with a personal or home account QoS that would otherwise be applied to the connection.
    Type: Grant

  • Providing dynamic quality of service for virtual private networks
    Patent number: 7852849
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) for connections to virtual private networks (VPNs) are provided. The method receives a message from an organization associated with the VPN, wherein the message includes information identifying the VPN connection and information associated with the organization. The method then determines, based on a set of rules defined for the organization, a QoS level to apply to the connection, and applies the determined QoS level to the connection. The QoS applied to the connection corresponds to the organization hosting the VPN and not the QoS associated with a personal or home account QoS that would otherwise be applied to the connection.
