Abstract: An example system comprising a management server to execute a directory service for internet-of-things (IoT) devices deployed on the management server, the management server to receive a subscription message including a topic about the IoT devices from a client device, store an address of the client device and the corresponding topic subscribed by the client device in the directory service for the IoT devices, extract device information from a sensor, wherein the device information includes the topic about the IoT devices, and transmit a configuration packet to the sensor in response to an identification of the topic from the device information, wherein the configuration packet includes the address of the client device.

Abstract: A network access server (NAS) determines the status of availability (e.g., how much more quota is unused) of an access resource, and sends a notification embedded in a point-to-point protocol (PPP) packet. The format of the packet is chosen such that definition/use of higher layers (e.g., HTTP) is not required to communicate the status to a client system. As a result, the user may be notified even if software such as web browser is not being executed on the client system.

Abstract: A mobile node on a cell-based wireless network (e.g., implemented using GSM) may indicate multicast applications (provided on a data network) of interest and receive data related to the applications. A data switch connected to the data network may receive a list of multicast applications of interest in the entire wireless network, and send data related to only the applications of interest to a gateway. The gateway may interact with a switching center and base station operating in conjunction with wireless network to extend the multicast applications to mobile nodes.

Abstract: A gateway may enable an end system to determine a translated address corresponding to an original address (of the end system). The end system may embed such determined translated address into a data portion of packets sent according to a signaling protocol. Another end system may eventually receive the data portion and determine the translated address corresponding to the original address. Using the translated address, the another end system may communicate back to the end system to set up a data path.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to a method for providing presence and instant messaging in a computer network. In particular, the invention is directed to a modified implementation of known wireless networking protocols to provide instant messaging and presence services to mobile units using. The instant messaging and presence services are provided within the framework of the native wireless networking protocol.

Abstract: Systems and methods for efficient storage of network management object identifiers are provided. Object identifiers such as SNMP MIB object identifiers are stored in a compressed form. In one embodiment, a single integer represents multiple elements of an object identifier where these elements are common to many identifiers. The redundancy inherent in a standard object identifier format is thereby greatly reduced. Large memory savings are provided in network management systems that employ many network management objects.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for controlling bandwidth at a wireless endpoint. The method comprises receiving a bandwidth request from a device and placing the device in a bundle which includes a plurality of radios to communicate with the device. A packet addressed to the device is received and transmitted to the device via the plurality of radios.

Abstract: Described is a device and method for receiving a data packet, the data packet addressed to a plurality of mobile units and determining an operating mode of each of the plurality of mobile units, each of the plurality of mobile units having a first operating mode and a second operating mode. The data packet is transmitted to each of a first set of the mobile units, the first set being in the first operating mode. A signal is transmitted to a second set of mobile units, each of the mobile units in the second set being in the second operating mode, the signal including data instructing the mobile units in the second set to switch to the first operating mode within a predetermined time period. The data packet is then transmitted to the second set of mobile units after expiration of the predetermined time period.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for scheduling delivery of traffic in a wireless network. The method comprises receiving packets addressed to a plurality of wireless computing units. A classification of each packet is determined. A transmission schedule is generated for the corresponding packet as a function of at least one of the classification and a priority request from at least one of the plurality of units. An indication message is generated as a function of the transmission schedule. A signal including the indication message is wirelessly transmitted.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for management of a wireless environment. The system may includes a network management arrangement (“NMA”), a wireless mobile unit (“MU”) and an access point (“AP). The AP receives a request for an association from the MU and transmits the request to the NMA. The NMA determines if the request is to be granted as a function of at least one of a plurality of predetermined factors which may include a data traffic load of the AP. If the request is not granted, the NMA determines a further AP to grant the request instead of the AP and instructs the AP to transmit a response to the MU including identification data of the further AP.

Abstract: A method for providing network services includes receiving a configuration request. The configuration request identifies a mobile node. The method also includes determining a location of the mobile node and selecting a directory agent based at least on the location of the mobile node. Additionally, the method includes transmitting to the mobile node a configuration response that identifies the directory agent.

Abstract: Described is a method which includes receiving an association request from a first wireless device to establish an emergency connection via a wireless communications network. A wireless bandwidth availability required to grant the request is analyzed. When the bandwidth is unavailable, a wireless connection between a second wireless device and the wireless network is terminated and the request of the first device is granted.
