Patent number: 7197048Abstract: The invention provides apparatus and methods for a Virtual Private Network (VPN) in a network that offers a simple user interface for efficient utilization of network resources. The VPN is defined for a specified set of endpoints each of which is associated with a single “hose.” A hose provides access to the VPN through an access point which may be a node of the network, for example. The hose is a single interface to the VPN for communication to all other endpoints of the VPN. The VPN achieves network resource allocation efficiency by exploiting resource sharing possibilities via multiplexing routing paths between endpoints and dynamic resource allocation techniques that permit real time resource allocation resizing. When a VPN is established with a VPN service provider, the routing paths between the endpoints of the VPN is optimized for multiplexing opportunities so that resource allocations between nodes along routing paths within the IP network is reduced to a minimum.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2004Date of Patent: March 27, 2007Assignee: AT&T CorpInventors: Nicholas G. Duffield, Albert G. Greenberg, Pawan Goyal, Partho P. Mishra, Kadangode K. Ramakrishnan, Jacobus Frasmus van der Merwe

Patent number: 5594729Abstract: The invention conveys network related information utilizing a single bit within a data cell. This is facilitated through a statistical analysis of a plurality of such single bits collected over a period of time from multiple data cells, and provides a level of intelligence beyond a simple indication of whether or not a particular parameter has exceeded a preset threshold. Thus a switch compiling such information can convey more accurate statistical information with respect to a varying parameter related to data cells (such as queue size, current transmission rate or link utilization) being sent to the various receivers within the network. Each receiver can then apply a suitable filter to the stream of received bits to extract the appropriate information, and send that information back to the source. In response, the source adapts the transmission rate or amount of data cells being sent to the switch accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 1994Date of Patent: January 14, 1997Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Hemant R.

Patent number: 5590126Abstract: A method for supporting end to end VC oriented service between mobile hosts. Included are protocols designed for a micro-cellular wireless environment in which mobile hosts make frequent transitions between cells. A VC rerouting procedure minimizes the effect of frequent hand-offs by extending routes and triggering a route rebuild only when performance as seen by an application degrades below a certain level. VC establishment and rerouting protocols assume the existence of separate signaling protocols for the wired and the wireless network, respectively. This minimizes the changes required to the signaling infrastructure used in the wired network while allowing the signaling in the wireless network to be customized for the unique requirements of that particular environment.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 1995Date of Patent: December 31, 1996Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Partho P. Mishra, Mani B. Srivastava
