  • Debugging of a network device through emulation
    Patent number: 10771316
    Abstract: An emulation mode for network devices is described as a means of isolating a defective network device from real network traffic, while continuing to transmit faux traffic to the defective network device, wherein the faux traffic is intentionally dropped. The emulation mode allows the defective network device to be tested in an environment that appears real, without impacting user traffic. A management server can control one or more neighbor network devices and place them in the emulation mode as a way to isolate and test the defective network device. In the emulation mode, the neighbor network device monitors for packets that, based on previous routing history, would be sent to the defective network device and, instead, routes them to functioning network devices using a current FIB. A virtual RIB/FIB can also be used to route the same packets to the defective network device.

  • Active monitoring of packet loss in networks using multiple statistical models
    Patent number: 10656988
    Abstract: A computer implemented method includes determining a hierarchical graph of a network of entities. The method further includes determining event data from a plurality of events. The method also includes applying a plurality of statistical models on the event data corresponding to each of the plurality of the events and the hierarchical graph. Each of the statistical models generates a model output data for each of the plurality of events. The method further includes generating a model output data based on the model output data corresponding to each of the plurality of statistical models by using a first cost function. The method also includes generating a set of data based on the model output data by using a second cost function. The method further includes determining one or more entities of the network experiencing packet loss based on the set of data.

  • Imaging method and system for analyzing in-vitro biological samples
    Patent number: 9606046
    Abstract: An imaging system for generating images of biological samples having a surface, the system comprising: a sample support for supporting a biological sample in use; a plurality of illumination sources, the plurality of illumination sources being arranged around the sample support and each adapted to illuminate the biological sample, in use, from a different direction; an image capture device for capturing illumination which has impinged on the biological sample to thereby form an image of the sample; wherein at least one of the illumination sources direction is not perpendicular to the surface of the sample.
