  • Patent number: 11882024
    Abstract: The present technology is directed to a system and method for application aware management and recovery of link failures resulting from excessive errors observed on the link. One aspect of the proposed technology is based on identification of link errors associated with application-specific data patterns traversing link. Other aspects involve corrective actions based on relocation or modification of specific application traffic to thereby alleviate the observed excessive link errors and prevent a link failure or shut down. Relocation may involve moving the source application to a different virtual machine/container/physical device or rerouting application traffic by updating relevant routing protocols. Modification may involve harmlessly changing payload data pattern to remove data-pattern dependent signal attenuation.

  • Patent number: RE49806
    Abstract: Techniques are presented herein to facilitate latency measurements in a networking environment. A first network device receives a packet for transport within a network domain that comprises a plurality of network devices. The plurality of network devices have a common time reference, that is, they are time synchronized. The first network device generates timestamp information indicating time of arrival of the packet at the first network device. The first network device inserts into the packet a tag that comprises at least a first subfield and a second subfield. The first subfield comprising a type indicator to signify to other network devices in the network domain that the tag includes timestamp information, and the second subfield includes the timestamp information. The first network device sends the packet from to into the network domain to another network device. Other network devices which receive that packet can make latency measurements.
