Abstract: Example security systems for use between at least one upstream router and at least one downstream router, are described. A group or pool of security devices can be used to provide stateful security to bidirectional packet flows between upstream and downstream routers. The packets of the bidirectional flows are forwarded to particular security devices based on a consistent hash ring process. For a given flow, bidirectional state information is synchronized among some, but not all, of the security devices. The security devices among which such bidirectional flow state information is shared are determined using the same consistent hash ring process.

Abstract: A first network device may establish connectivity with a second network device. The first network device may determine information that identifies a cluster identifier based on establishing connectivity with the second network device. The first network device may compare a first software version of the first network device and a second software version of the second network device. The first network device may selectively obtain and install a system image of the second network device based on comparing the first software version and the second software version. The first network device may receive, from the second network device, configuration information and user session information based on selectively obtaining the system image. The first network device and the second network device may form a high-availability cluster.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a catalyst component and a catalyst for olefin polymerization. The catalyst component utilizes magnesium halide and silica as composite support, and the particle morphology thereof can be improved by regulating the ratio of magnesium halide to silica. Further, the purpose of stabilizing the rate of catalytic polymerization reaction and improving the particle morphology of polymer so as to meet the requirements on catalyst performance of various polymerization processes can be achieved through the combination of the supports of the catalyst. In the meantime, when used in the polymerization of propylene, the catalyst of the present invention exhibits a relatively high polymerization activity and high stereospecificity.
