  • Publication number: 20230012793
    Abstract: A method (500) for toggling multi-network connectivity of a mobile device (110) includes, for the mobile device simultaneously connected to one or more carrier-mediated wireless networks (120) associated with a network operator (70), executing a graphical user interface that renders a status graphic (320) indicating the mobile device is currently connected to at least one carrier-mediated wireless network associated with the network operator, and an interactive graphic (330) for selecting between disabling and enabling connections (122) between the mobile device and carrier-mediated wireless networks associated with the network operator.

  • Publication number: 20220417841
    Abstract: A method (500) for demarcating carrier-mediated and user-mediated networks includes, for a mobile device (110) simultaneously connected to a first wireless network (120) and a second wireless network (120), determining whether the first wireless network is associated with a same network operator (70) as the second wireless network. When the operator is the same, the method includes establishing a virtual private network (VPN) (30) between the mobile device and a remote server (130). The VPN includes a first VPN connection (122) that connects the mobile device to the remote server over the first wireless network and a second VPN connection (122) that connects the mobile device to the remote server over the second wireless network. The method includes transmitting data (50) from the mobile device to the remote server over the VPN via one of the VPN connections. The remote server routes the data to a destination server (60).

  • Patent number: 9246821
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for providing a network switch for implementing weighted cost multi-pathing (WCMP). In some implementations, the switch can implement equal cost multi-pathing (ECMP) using ECMP forwarding tables. The ECMP forwarding table may include more than one output port associated with a destination address of an incoming packet. The ECMP forwarding table may become undesirably large if unequal weights were assigned to the output ports. A multi-level ECMP table can be implemented that can allow assigning weights to the output ports while being relatively small. The multi-level ECMP table can include a first level where each entry includes at most a single output port. A second level can include entries having one or more output ports.
