Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include duplicating a packet within a plurality of packets to be transmitted to a destination computing node as a sequence of packets. The plurality of packets including the duplicate of the packet are transmitted to the destination computing node. Upon receiving a first acknowledgement of the packet from the destination computing node, it is determined that the first acknowledgment is directed to a duplicated packet. In response to determining that the first acknowledgment is directed to a duplicated packet, it is determined that a second acknowledgement has yet to be received for each of one or more packets within the plurality of packets transmitted prior to the packet. In response to determining that the second acknowledgement has yet to be received, the one or more packets are retransmitted to the destination computing node.

Abstract: This present application relates to delivery of data content across a mesh network of proxy servers based on network context. In some embodiments, optimal paths for delivering the application or data content are computed and selected dynamically based upon context of network traffic. In some embodiments, large data content, such as video content, is segmented dynamically based on network context to reduce delay between a request for the video content by a client device and start of playback of the requested video content at the client device. In some embodiments, a server determines a segmentation profile for segmenting the video content into a plurality of video segments each having a segment size determined based on link performance metrics, generates a manifest file referencing the plurality of video segments in a temporal order and provide the manifest file to a client device.

Abstract: A method and system for performing synthetic loss measurements (SLM) includes methods for single-ended and dual-ended synthetic loss measurements. The methods include maintaining a session number indicative of a physical network component at each maintenance point used to perform synthetic loss measurements. The session numbers are maintained according to a novel protocol and are used to detect a change in the network component, such as resulting from a protection switch event. The session numbers enable the synthetic loss measurements to continue irrespective of changes in the values for the session numbers and to remove errors when computing frame loss that may arise when physical network components change. The disclosed methods and systems may be used when a link aggregation group exists between a local maintenance point and a remote maintenance point.
