Patent number: 7917948Abstract: A method comprises receiving a request for secure network traffic from a device having a private network address at a source node, obtaining the private network address of a requested destination device at a destination node from a route server based on signaling information associated with the request, obtaining the public network address of the destination node associated with the private network address, creating in response to the request a virtual circuit between the source node and the destination node based on the public network address of the destination node, and encrypting network traffic for transporting at least from the source node to the destination node through the virtual circuit. The process is dynamic in that the virtual circuit is created in response to the request. Hence, the process operates as if a fully meshed network exists but requires less provisioning and maintenance than a fully meshed network architecture.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2008Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Ramesh Kalimuthu, Yogesh Kalley, Michael L.

Patent number: 7831270Abstract: Providing one or more virtual talk groups to an endpoint includes establishing one or more resources of a user endpoint. Demand of the one or more virtual talk groups is estimated, where the demand is placed on the one or more resources. Whether the one or more resources are capable of satisfying the demand is determined. At least a subset of the one or more virtual talk groups that may be presented to the user endpoint is established, if the one or more resources are not capable of satisfying the demand. At least the subset of the one or more virtual talk groups is provided to the user endpoint.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2006Date of Patent: November 9, 2010Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Yogesh Kalley, Kittur V.

Patent number: 7751348Abstract: A method for providing a push-to-talk communication session includes facilitating a push-to-talk communication session among a full duplex endpoint supporting simultaneous two-way communication and a plurality of half duplex endpoints. Communications are received from and transmitted to the full duplex endpoint along a two-way communications path. The method includes blocking communications received from the full duplex endpoint while one of the plurality of half duplex endpoints has floor control in the communication session and receiving from the full duplex endpoint in the two-way communications path a floor control signal comprising a request to transmit communications in the communication session.

Patent number: 7366894Abstract: A request is received for secure network traffic from a device having a private network address at a source node. The private network address of a requested destination device is obtained at a destination node from a route server based on signaling information associated with the request. The public network address of the destination node associated with the private network address is obtained. In response to the request, a virtual circuit is created between the source node and the destination node based on the public network address of the destination node. Network traffic is encrypted for transport at least from the source node to the destination node through the virtual circuit. Creating the virtual circuit dynamically in response to the request functions like a fully meshed network but requires less provisioning and maintenance. The process is readily scalable, as with a hub and spoke network but with less delay.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2002Date of Patent: April 29, 2008Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Ramesh Kalimuthu, Yogesh Kalley, Michael L.
