  • Methods, systems and computer program products for assessing network quality
    Patent number: 7274670
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for evaluating performance of a network that supports packetized communications. A network test protocol that is associated with the packetized communication is initiated and network performance data is obtained based on the initiated network test protocol. An overall network quality rating is generated based on the obtained performance data and a network impairment indicator is calculated based on the overall network quality rating.

  • Extended DLUR/APPN support for non-APPN SNA devices
    Patent number: 5802313
    Abstract: A system and method for connecting subarea SNA (systems network architecture) peripheral nodes into an APPN (Advanced Peer-to-Peer Network) network such that the peripheral nodes can function in the APPN network without upgrades to their existing software. This method also also enhances the manageability of the peripheral nodes by allowing the representation of the PU (physical unit) to reside in the peripheral node.
