Patent number: 10142229Abstract: A system performs tunneling of real-time communications (“RTC”). The system establishes a tunnel between a tunneling client and a tunneling server. The system then receives a packet over the tunnel. The packet is configured according to an outer transport protocol of the tunnel and includes a datagram-based payload and a stream-based header. The system processes the packet according to a datagram-based outer transport protocol based on information in the stream-based header.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2015Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Rolando Herrero, Henry Katz, Michael Y.

Patent number: 10015287Abstract: A system tunnels real-time communications (“RTC”). The system creates a connection between a tunneling client and a signaling server. The connection includes a stream-based tunnel between the tunneling client and a tunneling server and a stream connection between the tunneling server and the signaling server. The system then receives, from the tunneling client, stream traffic encapsulated as datagram traffic within the stream-based tunnel. The system translates the datagram traffic into the stream traffic, and forwards the stream traffic to the signaling server over the stream connection.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2015Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Rolando Herrero, Henry Katz

Patent number: 9647982Abstract: A system performs peer tunneling for real time communication (“RTC”). The system receives, by a tunneling server, a peer service request message from a first user equipment (“UE”) indicating a request for establishing a peer tunnel between the first UE and a second UE. The system determines whether tunneling service is available at the second UE. When tunneling service is available at the second UE, the system sends a first peer service response message back to the first UE including remote tunnel parameters corresponding to the second UE. When tunneling service is not available at the second UE, the system sends a second peer service response message back to the first UE indicating a failed tunnel creation.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2015Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Rolando Herrero, Henry Katz

Patent number: 9609035Abstract: A system performs tunneling for real time communication (“RTC”) between a source endpoint and a destination endpoint. The system receives, by a server, a request from a user equipment (“UE”) for enabling header compression of inner internet protocol (“IP”) and transport headers of media traffic encapsulated within a tunnel. The media traffic corresponds to the RTC between the source endpoint and the destination endpoint. The system determines a mapping that maps one or more indices to identifying information of the source endpoint and the destination endpoint, and sends a response to the UE including the mapping. Upon sending the response, the UE and the server communicate the media traffic according to the mapping, where the media traffic includes media packets in which inner IP and transport headers are replaced with an index within the one or more indices.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2015Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Rolando Herrero, Henry Katz

Patent number: 9531503Abstract: Systems and methods of redundancy for real time communications are disclosed. One such system includes a first device and a second device, where the first device includes a redundant tunneled services element (RTSE) and the second device includes a redundant tunnel services control function (RTSCF). The RTSCF is in communication with the RTSE and is operable to establish a redundant secure tunnel to the RTSE. The RTSE is operable to redundantly convey a first stream of media packets over the redundant secure tunnel to the RTSCF. The RTSCF is operable to redundantly convey a second stream of media packets over the redundant secure tunnel to the RTSE.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2013Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: Acme Packet, Inc.Inventors: Henry Katz, Prashant Kumar, Rolando Herrero
