  • Publication number: 20260128882
    Abstract: A system and method for flow-level deduplication of network traffic are disclosed. A network node receives a first plurality of packets from a first network endpoint. The first plurality of packets represent a flow of data being communicated between the first network endpoint and a second network endpoint. The network node further receives a second plurality of packets from the second network endpoint. The network node identifies a sequence identifier of each packet of the first and second pluralities of packets. The network node determines that the first and second pluralities of packets are all associated with the same flow, based on the sequence identifiers of the first and second pluralities of packets. In response to that determination, the network node deduplicates the flow by discarding the first plurality of packets or the second plurality of packets. The network node may be a traffic visibility node.

  • Patent number: 12203564
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide for pressure relief valve detection and monitoring. A valve assembly includes a valve body, having an inlet and an outlet, and a valve seat insert attached to the valve body between the inlet and the outlet. The valve body also includes an indicator assembly, a disk positioned within the valve seat insert; and a stem extending between the disk and the indicator assembly. The stem includes a magnet. A magnetic sensor is operable to identify proximity of the magnet. The valve seat insert is operable to release the disk when pressure at the inlet exceeds a threshold value. The disk, when released, moves the stem and magnet into a position that is detected by the magnetic sensor, and the indicator assembly indicates a valve opening event when the position is detected.

  • Publication number: 20210296060
    Abstract: A solid state circuit interrupter provides structures which can manually move an isolation switch of a pole from the ON state to the OFF state without the use of auxiliary power but that advantageously additionally provides an interlock apparatus that avoids manually moving the isolation switch from the ON state to the OFF state until certain conditions exist. One such condition is to ensure that some action is taken, such as by switching a physical interlock between one state and another state. Such a change in state of the physical interlock might additionally result in a change in state of an electronic interlock that would resist the solid state switch being moved to its ON state while the isolation switch is capable of being manually switched to its OFF state. The physical interlock might additionally resist the isolation switch from being manually switched into its ON state.
