  • Method and apparatus to balance flow loads in a multipurpose networking device
    Patent number: 7580353
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for allocating access to a scarce resource. A load of each flow on the resource is calculated. The aggregate load is compared to a maximum steady state load. A drop policy is established responsive to the comparison. The drop policy is applied to the flows at an input interface of the device.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 25, 2009
    Assignee: F5 Networks, Inc.
    Inventors: Tomasz J. Goldman, Christian Paulsen
  • Method and apparatus to facilitate automatic sharing in a client server environment
    Patent number: 7552191
    Abstract: A method and system of automatic share allocation in a shared resource environment. Upon connection of a device to a server, the server identifies if the device is a known device. The server then applies a share allocation previously established if the device is a known device and automatically creates a share allocation for the device if the device is not a known device.

  • Spanning tree recovery in machine networks
    Patent number: 6940825
    Abstract: In a spanning tree-based computer network having a plurality of switches, a spanning tree can be generated and/or recovered by identifying a network core, determining a distance to the network core for each switch in the network, and generating and/or recovering a spanning tree for the network based on the switches' relative distances to the network core.

  • Temporary configuration with fall-back
    Patent number: 6374352
    Abstract: Mechanisms initializing a network device having a current configuration, a processor and a configuration storage, and testing a test configuration whereby the current configuration can be reused if the test configuration fails to initialize and operate the network device properly. The mechanisms store the current configuration in the configuration storage, detect a plurality of configuration records associated with the test configuration data, detect the test configuration data, determine whether the test configuration data is to be used during an initialization of the network device and storing the test and current configuration records in non-volatile memory.
