Abstract: Technique or mechanism in which network security policies are applied close to the source or origin associated with policy decisions. For example. the disclosed technology moves dropped flows from a firewall cluster to a leaf switch based on host location.

Abstract: Implementations are provided for building a service function chain in a network that can remove the requirement to encapsulate packet level metadata or other packet levels in a service function chain. The approach allows for implementing service function chains while separating chain metadata from the service function so that service functions are not required to support handling service function chaining metadata. The approach can map a tunnel identifier of an encapsulated data packet to an attachment circuit of a service function and can rewrite the destination media access control (MAC) address of the data packet to the MAC address of the service function.

Abstract: A structural entity for transferring structural loads from a Tower of a Wind Turbine Generator to its Foundation, by means of a Plated Transition Piece characterized in that it consists of a cylindrical central body connected by a series of inclined plates and shear plates and beams to legs that connects to a foundation structure.

Abstract: Routing nodes in communications networks use policies and certain fields, called selection fields, in packet headers to make routing decisions. When routing over a trunk, a specific trunked link over which to forward a packet must be selected. Policies and selection fields can be used in a way that causes the packets in data streams to be distributed more evenly across the trunked links than is currently done.

Abstract: We have found that the use of a multifunctional oxetane containing two or more oxetane groups as the, or part of the, polymerisable component of a cationically initiated energy-curable coating composition with a thioxanthonium photoinitiator gives a coating composition which is useful for a variety of printing processes, including flexographic printing.
