  • Publication number: 20230262022
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for forwarding data messages at multiple edge nodes of a logical network that process data messages between a logical network and an external network. At a particular one of the edge nodes, the method receives a data message sent from a source machine in the logical network. The method performs network address translation to translate a source network address of the data message corresponding to the source machine into an anycast network address that is shared among the edge nodes. The method sends the data message with the anycast network address as a source network address to the external network. Each edge node receives data messages from source machines in the logical network and translates the source addresses of the data messages into the same anycast public network address prior to sending the data messages to the external network.

  • Publication number: 20230208469
    Abstract: A smart antenna switching method is disclosed. Multiple wireless signal parameters of a wireless network environment are collected. Under a current operating phase, when a holding period of a to-be-switched antenna is 0, the qualities of wireless signals between an initial antenna and the to-be-switched antenna are compared according to the wireless signal parameters. When a comparing period of the to-be-switched antenna is 0, it is determined whether an antenna switching operation is performed. If the antenna switching operation is not performed, the next operating phase is served as the current operating phase. If the antenna switching operation is performed, a signal receiving-and-sending operating is switched from the to-be-switched antenna to the outdoor antenna or from the outdoor antenna to the to-be-switched antenna, and the previous operating phase is served as the current operating phase.
