  • Speed sensitive content delivery in a client-server network
    Patent number: 7673026
    Abstract: The response time from a client on a network is measured and a destination address is selected based on the measured response time. The client requests an address from the network. The network may be a local network or a wide area network such as the Internet. The response time of the client is measured to determine the optimum speed at which the client may operate. The measured response time is communicated to the server, where a destination address is selected based on the requested address and the measured response time. The client may then be connected to the destination address.

  • Link-lock device and method of monitoring and controlling a link for failures and intrusions
    Patent number: 7308713
    Abstract: A link lock system for a network includes a computer, a network interface device, a bus monitor, and a security switch. The network interface device provides the computer with access to the network. The bus monitor monitors a link between the network interface device and the computer. The bus monitor reports detected failures or intrusions. The security switch switches the link from a non-secured mode to a secured mode when a report of the detected failures or intrusions is received from the bus monitor.
