  • Performance monitoring support for CFM over EVPN
    Patent number: 10587488
    Abstract: A network device may generate a route advertisement that includes a media access control (MAC) address. The MAC address may correspond to a data link established between the network device and a customer edge (CE) device. The network device and the CE device may be associated with an Ethernet virtual private network (EVPN) that includes other network devices that are remote from the CE device. The network device may cause the route advertisement to be outputted over the EVPN. The route advertisement may permit the other network devices to learn that the data link is directly reachable via the MAC address, and may permit the other network devices, when configured as maintenance endpoints (MEPs), to directly address performance monitoring-related unicast packets, intended for the data link, using the MAC address, such that flooding of the performance monitoring-related unicast packets is avoided.

  • SHIFT REGISTER AND TOUCH DISPLAY APPARATUS THEREOF
    Publication number: 20200012368
    Abstract: A shift register driving a touch display device generates shifted pulse signals shifted by a specified phase. The shift register includes unit circuits connected in multiple stages. Each unit circuit includes an output terminal, an input transistor, an output transistor, and a pull-up transistor. The input transistor is controlled by a first control signal and outputs a high-level voltage to a first node based on the value of a trigger signal. The output transistor outputs the shifted pulse signal, which is synchronous with a clock control signal, based on the value of the high-level voltage of the first node. A blank period is inserted between the Nth unit circuit and the (N+1)th unit circuit. After the blank period, the pull-up transistor clamps the voltage of the output terminal of the (N+1)th unit circuit at a high-level voltage.
