Patent number: 10075391Abstract: A method for allocating port assignments for transmitting a reserved network stream across a network node comprises determining a cycle time associated with a network node. The method also comprises establishing, for at least one port of the network node, a plurality of virtual layers associated with the cycle time, wherein each of the plurality of virtual layers is divided into 2n equally-spaced slots per cycle (where n>0). The method further comprises receiving a reserved stream request associated with transmission of a reserved stream across the node, and determining a number of slots required to transmit the reserved stream. The method also comprises assigning one or more slots associated with a port of the network node to the transmission of packets associated with the reserved stream based on the determined number of slots. The method further comprises transmitting the stream according to the slot assignment associated with the port of the network node.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2017Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Norman William Finn, Rong Pan, Hiroshi Suzuki, Linda Tin-Wen Cheng, Peter Geoffrey Jones, Hariprasada Rao Ginjpalli, Rudolph Benedict Klecka

Patent number: 8242926Abstract: The embodiments described herein present methods and apparatus for an energy-saving status indicator. A method includes receiving a configuration of a first power consumption state for a status indicator light in a network device. The method then activates the first power consumption state using the configuration. After detecting a condition, the method activates a second power consumption state for the status indicator light. The transition from the first power state to the second power state may be from a low power state to a normal operating state or from a normal operating state to a low power state in various embodiments. Other embodiments are described.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2008Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Charles Calvin Byers, Rudolph Benedict Klecka, Freddy Alejandro Mercado
