  • Dual internet protocol (IP) network input reference validation
    Patent number: 12368677
    Abstract: Embodiments provide systems and techniques for testing the functionality of a network architecture having multiple redundant internet protocol (IP) networks. An example system includes a first IP network having a first network device, and a second IP network having a second network device. The system also includes a computing device coupled to the first IP network via the first network device and to the second IP network via the second network device. The first network device is configured to selectively forward first packet(s) of the IP media traffic flow to the computing device when the first packet(s) satisfies a first predetermined condition. The second network device is configured to selectively forward second packet(s) of the IP media traffic flow to the computing device when the second packet(s) satisfies a second predetermined condition.
