  • Patent number: 6523126
    Abstract: A system comprises a first device and a second device. The first device operates in a power management environment and has a sleep status signal for indicating a sleep status to the second device. The sleep status indicates if the first device is in a sleep state or normal operation state. The second device is coupled to the first device and checks for malfunctions of the first device. The second device only checks for malfunctions of the first device if the first device is in the normal operation state.

  • Patent number: 6418124
    Abstract: A method to route a packet in a computer network in which the packet is transmitted via a router to a destination that is in a sleep state. The data packet causes a router to broadcast an address resolution request which in response awakens the destination from its sleep state. Upon awakening, the destination provokes a resolution of a destination address in which the address resolution is provoked without waiting for a reception of another address resolution request. When a second data packet is transmitted to the destination address, the destination address resolution is already resolved.

  • Publication number: 20020083351
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and program product for reducing unwanted host wake-up messages. A host computer finds a port in use by a host application, selects program information based on the port in use by the application, and sends the program information to a port filter. The port filter receives a packet that contains a port identifier. The port-filter uses the program information to decide whether there is a host application associated with the port identifier and sends a wake-up message to the host computer only when there is an associated host application.

  • Publication number: 20010043598
    Abstract: A method for routing a packet in a network is disclosed. The method includes transmitting a first data packet to a destination; provoking resolution of the destination address of the first data packet; and transmitting a second data packet to the destination after the destination address is resolved.
