  • Method and device to process network data
    Patent number: 8386645
    Abstract: A method and network device to process network data is described. The method may comprise, when the network device is unable to process the network data, communicating a translation request including data for translation to a remote translator. The translation request may identify a format into which the network data is to be translated. Thereafter, the method comprises receiving translated data from the translator and processing the translated data. Further, a method and translation device to provide translated data to a network device is described. The method may comprise receiving at a translator a translation request from at least one network device wherein the translation request includes data to be translated. Thereafter, the method may identify a data schema associated with the received data and translate the received data into translated data corresponding to the identified data schema. The translated data is then communicated to the network device.
