  • Publication number: 20230261972
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises determining, by a first networking device, that a first subflow of a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection has been established between a first internet protocol (IP) address of a first computing device and an IP address of a second computing device, wherein the first computing device is multihomed to the first networking device and a second networking device. The method also includes determining, by the first or second networking device, a request to establish a second subflow of the MPTCP connection between a second IP address of the first computing and the IP address of the second computing device. In addition, the method includes advertising, by the first networking device, a primary IP address (PIP) of the first networking device for the first subflow and advertising, by the second networking device, a PIP of the second networking device for the second subflow.

  • Patent number: 11648430
    Abstract: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a computer system, information that indicates that a fire has been detected in a building and that a fire suppression system within the building has begun dousing the fire; monitoring sensor information from one or more sensors located within the building; determining, by the computer system and based on the sensor information, whether the fire has been extinguished; activating, in response to determining that the fire has been extinguished, a feature to turn off a water supply to the building, the feature being presented on a computing device for a user who is associated with the building; receiving, after activating the feature and from the computing device, a command to turn off the water supply; and transmitting, by the computer system, a control signal that causes an electromechanical device to close a water valve within the building.

  • Patent number: 11615490
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for identifying issues in a building. In one aspect, a method includes receiving information describing an issue with a building, accessing data that identifies (i) a plurality of components that are included in the building and (ii) features of the plurality of components, identifying one or more candidate components that have at least a threshold likelihood of being a cause of the issue, and performing some action in response to remedy the issue. For example, the method can include selecting a candidate service provider from among a plurality of service providers based on a comparison of (i) the one or more candidate components and (ii) information identifying technical qualifications for the plurality of service providers, transmitting a service request for the issue to the candidate service provider, receiving a response from the candidate service provider, and scheduling, based on the response, a service appointment.

  • Patent number: 10768647
    Abstract: Systems, methods, circuits and computer-readable mediums for regulators, e.g., low-dropout (LDO) regulators, with load-insensitive compensations are provided. An example regulator includes an amplifier operable to receive an input voltage and a feedback voltage, a follower responsive to an output voltage of the amplifier and operable to supply a regulated voltage to a load coupled to the follower, and a feedback circuit coupled to the load and the amplifier and operable to provide the feedback voltage. The amplifier is operable to have a substantially unity gain beyond a resonant frequency of the amplifier.

  • Patent number: 10574481
    Abstract: Heterogeneous capabilities in an overlay fabric may be provided. First, it may be determined that a first link and a second link support a feature. Then the first link and the second link may be traversed with traffic between a host in a first Endpoint Group (EPG) connected to a first leaf switch and a second host in a second EPG connected to a second leaf switch when a topology preference for the feature is indicated for the traffic.
