Publication number: 20230224244Abstract: A device includes a transceiver and processing circuitry. The transceiver is configured to receive an input packet having an input header and forward an output packet having an output header. The processing circuitry is configured to parse the input header, determine recommendations for forwarding a payload of the input packet using a trained neural network and based on the parsed input header, and process the input packet and generate the output packet with the output header based on the recommendations and available resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2022Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicant: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Bogdan USCUMLIC, Yu-Chia TSENG

Publication number: 20220303229Abstract: Various example embodiments for supporting safe port removal are presented. Various example embodiments for supporting safe port removal may be configured to support safe port removal for a port of a virtual switch. Various example embodiments for supporting safe port removal for a port of a virtual switch may be configured to support safe removal of the port of the virtual switch such that the port is no longer available for use on the virtual switch. Various example embodiments for supporting safe port removal for a port of a virtual switch may be configured to support safe removal of the port of the virtual switch by performing separate logical and physical shutdowns of the port and performing one or more functions for the port (e.g., rejecting link discovery packets, continuing to handle data packets, and so forth) between the logical and physical shutdowns of the port.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2021Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Yu-Chia Tseng, Gopalasingham Aravinthan, Bogdan Uscumlic

Patent number: 11303554Abstract: A processor instantiates a virtual network function (VNF) and a probe to monitor at least one metric associated with the VNF. The processor also allocates a pool of ports to the probe. A transceiver establishes one or more first interfaces between the probe and one or more applications using one or more first ports from the pool of ports. Information such as metrics generated by the ports is concurrently exchange between the probe and the applications using the first interfaces. In some cases, a second interface is established between the probe and a monitoring server. The probe reports mission critical events to the applications via the first interfaces and non-mission critical events to the monitoring server via the second interface concurrently with reporting the mission critical events.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Yu-Chia Tseng, Gopalasingham Aravinthan, Bogdan Uscumlic, Liat Pele, Guillermo Rodriguez-Navas
