Publication number: 20140244861Abstract: Translation of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) and Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses is contemplated, such as for use in allowing IPv4 devices to connect with IPv6 device without requiring the IPv4 devices to specify the IPv6 address of the connected-to IPv6 device. The IPv6 addresses may be translated to IPv4 addresses suitable for use with the IPv4 devices in a manner that sufficiently compresses the IPv6 for use with the more bit limited nomenclature of an IPv4 address.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2014Publication date: August 28, 2014Applicant: Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Christopher J. Donley, Christopher Grundemann, Vikas Sarawat

Publication number: 20140237140Abstract: Address translation sufficient for use in translating addresses included in messages carried or otherwise transmitted between inside and outside network is contemplated. The contemplated address translation may facilitate operation of a network address translator (NAT), carrier grade network address translator (CGN), or other device similarly configured to facilitate translating inside addresses used to address messages carried over the inside network relative to outside addresses used to facilitate carrying messages over the outside network.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2014Publication date: August 21, 2014Applicant: Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Vikas Sarawat, Karthik Sundaresan, Christopher J. Donley, Christopher Grundemann

Publication number: 20140222978Abstract: Configuration of firewall functionality and/or determining positioning for routers operating within a multi-router network is contemplated. The firewall functionality configured for one or more of the routers may be based router positioning within the multi-router network. The firewall functionality may be automatically selected according to the router positioning in order to facilitate dynamic and/or adaptive router configuring.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2014Publication date: August 7, 2014Applicant: Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Christopher J. Donley, Christopher Grundemann

Publication number: 20140108673Abstract: Adaptive prefix delegation that facilitates delegating prefixes from one device to another. The prefix delegation may be adaptively implemented to enable delegation router to make decision regarding characteristics of prefixes to be delegated. The adaptive prefix delegation may be automatically or dynamically preformed according to particularly operation capabilities of each delegating device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2013Publication date: April 17, 2014Applicant: CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.Inventors: Christopher Grundemann, Christopher J. Donley
-
Publication number: 20140108597Abstract: Assignment of directionality to interfaces, ports, receptacles, antennas and other input/output (I/O) employed by network devices to facilitate multi-device networking is contemplated. The directionality assignments may be used to facilitate assigning directionless and/or configurable router directionality in order to automatically, adaptively, dynamically or other otherwise facilitate inter-router connections within a multi-router network.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2013Publication date: April 17, 2014Applicant: CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.Inventors: Christopher Donley, Christopher Grundemann
-
Publication number: 20140108624Abstract: An overlay network is contemplated. The overlay network may be characterized as supporting, or at least virtually supporting, separate networks over a common infrastructure. The common infrastructure may be comprised of a plurality of routers or other devices configured to facilitate directing messages according to various addressing requirements. The use of the separate networks may be dictated according to the particular addressing requirements of each message desired for transport.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2012Publication date: April 17, 2014Applicant: CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.Inventors: Christopher Grundemann, Chrisopher J. Donley, Vikas Sarawat, Karthik Sundaresan
