Abstract: A method, apparatus, and device for managing binding information on the network side are provided. The method includes the following steps: an entity on a network side sends a Binding Revocation Indication (BRI) message to an entity which stores binding relations of mobile nodes (MNs), where the binding relation includes a mapping between a home of address (HoA) of an MN and plurality of care of addresses (CoAs) of the MN and the BRI message includes at least one CoA ID; and the entity which stores the binding relations of MNs deletes the corresponding binding relation of at least one CoA ID in the BRI message after receiving the BRI message from the entity on the network side. Thus, with the present invention, the network side can delete the binding relation between a specified CoA and an HoA in the case of plurality of CoAs, which makes it easier to maintain corresponding binding relations.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes an example of device for use in an Ethernet Virtualisation Interconnection (EVI) network having a Hub-Spoke structure. The EVI network comprises a first Hub Edge Device (Hub-ED) and a second Hub-ED, the device comprising a memory unit to store instructions; and a processor to perform the instructions from the memory unit. The processor receives a message having an identifier, the identifier identifying a destination address of the message. The processor selects an EVI link interface from a set of EVI link interfaces having a first EVI link interface and a second EVI link interface each associated with the identifier, wherein the first EVI link interface interfaces with the first Hub-ED and the second EVI link interface interfaces with the second Hub-ED. The processor also sends the message to one of the first Hub-ED or the second Hub-ED via the EVI link interface selected from the set of EVI link interfaces.

Several route switching methods and route switching systems are also involved.

Abstract: A channel switching method, a channel switching device, and a channel switching system are provided. The method includes that: a network buffer apparatus determines whether a buffered video stream burst in unicast is synchronous with a channel video stream pushed by a network node to a client in multicast; notifies the client of sending a request for joining a multicast group, so as to implement fast channel switching; and dynamically adjusts the speed of pushing the video stream in unicast, so that the number of concurrent connections of the client and the channel switching efficiency are increased, and the deployment and operation cost of an Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) system is decreased. In this case, the channel switching scheme achieves universality and expandability, and the level of user experience is improved.

Abstract: A sliding module for a mobile terminal is provided, comprising: a support plate having a rotating mechanism on a first end thereof; a rotating plate connected with the support plate via the rotating mechanism; a sliding plate disposed on the rotating plate and configured to slide against the rotating plate; and a restricting mechanism disposed on a second end of the support plate opposite to the first end thereof to restrict a pair of first side portions at an end of the sliding plate neighboring the second end of the support plate, wherein the rotating plate may be rotated by a predetermined angle with respect to the support plate via the rotating mechanism when the first side portions slide out of the restricting mechanism. A mobile terminal comprising the same is also provided.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a channel changing method, apparatus, and system. A network side device records in real time a timestamp of a media packet of a multicast media stream which enters a buffer, and a key frame which enters the buffer; when a terminal's channel changing request has been detected, obtains a first timestamp of a media packet which enters the buffer at a channel changing request moment, and a second timestamp of a media packet in which a key frame which is of the target channel and is the last to enter the buffer is located in the media packet; determines a timestamp difference between the first timestamp and the second timestamp; and transmits the timestamp difference and a burst media stream of the target channel to the terminal. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a delay in playing the multicast media stream by the terminal is reduced.
