  • MULTI-SOURCE CORRELATION OF NETWORK TOPOLOGY METRICS
    Publication number: 20150131458
    Abstract: Various exemplary embodiments relate to a method of determining a cost for a routing path in a network. The method includes: receiving a first metric for a plurality of links in a network, the first metric being a routing metric used to determine routing in the network; determining a routing path including a subset of the links based on the first metric, the routing path having an initial cost based on the first metric; receiving second metric information including a second metric that is different from the first metric; and calculating a corrected cost for the routing path based on the second metric.

  • Method of providing an MMoIP communication service
    Patent number: 9025484
    Abstract: One or more MMoIP packet streams are transmitted via a connection established between a first and second endpoint of an IP communication network. The one or more MMoIP packet streams include MMoIP payload data and/or control data. Control data directed to a processor is inserted in at least one MMoIP packet stream of the one or more MMoIP packet streams at the first endpoint and/or the second endpoint. The one or more MMoIP packet streams are transmitted via an MMoIP switch of the IP communication network. The MMoIP switch monitors the one or more MMoIP packet streams. The MMoIP switch detects the control data directed to the processor. The MMoIP switch forwards the detected control data to the processor.
