Abstract: A network sensor that features a data store and a packet processing engine. Communicatively coupled to the data store, the packet processing engine is configured to (i) generate a retention priority for at least a first flow within a first storage region of a plurality of storage regions and (ii) identify, in response to an eviction request, the priority of each of the plurality of storage regions. The priority of the first storage region is partially based on the retention priority associated with the first flow while the priority of a second storage region is based on retention priorities associated with flows stored within the second storage region. The packet processing engine also is configured to identify, through use of the retention priorities of the stored flows within the first storage region, which flows are to be retained and which flows are to be evicted.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and system for achieving enhanced performance for application message handling. The disclosed system includes a device and is configured to receive, at a first processing layer implemented by the device, a message addressed to a first port. The system is further configured to modify the message to be addressed to a second port indicated in a body of the message prior to forwarding the message to a second processing layer implemented by the device. Furthermore, the system is configured to forward, by the first processing layer to the second processing layer, the modified message addressed to the second port.

Abstract: A network sensor that features a data store and a packet processing engine. In communication with the data store, the packet processing engine comprises (1) a cache management logic and (2) deduplication logic. The cache management logic is configured to analyze packets to determine whether (a) a packet under analysis include duplicated data and (b) content of the packet is targeted for storage in a same continuous logical storage area as the duplicated data. The deduplication logic, when activated by the cache management logic, is configured to generate a deduplication reference for insertion into the packet prior to storage.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically generating a computation mesh for use with an analytical tool, the computation mesh having a plurality of ?-grid lines and ?-grid lines intersecting at mesh points positioned with respect to an inner boundary and an outer boundary. The system and method includes receiving information corresponding to a shape to be analyzed, ?-grid line mesh parameter value corresponding to a desired number of ?-grid lines for the computation mesh, and an ?-grid line mesh parameter value corresponding to a desired number of ?-grid lines for the computation mesh, and generating the computation mesh from one or more mesh equations without the need for receiving additional information from a user. In one example, the solving of the one or more mesh equations includes an outer boundary distance parameter that is a function of an inner boundary distance parameter and one of a natural log of the ?-grid line mesh parameter value and a square root of the ?-grid line mesh parameter value.

Abstract: According to the present invention, methods and apparatus are provided to allow efficient and effective aggregation of ports into port channels in a fibre channel network. A local fibre channel switch can automatically identify compatible ports and initiate exchange sequences with a remote fibre channel switch to aggregate ports into port channels. Ports can be aggregated synchronously to allow consistent generation of port channel map tables.
