Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method provides mechanisms for load balancing of L2VPN traffic over multiple IPsec VPN tunnels. In an embodiment, a method comprises: performing, by a gateway, a lookup of available virtual tunnel interfaces (“VTIs”) implemented in the gateway to determine a plurality of VTIs; generating a hash value from contents of one or more inner headers of the packet; based on the hash value, determining a VTI device identifier; wherein the VTI device identifier uniquely identifies a particular VTI from the plurality of VTIs; and relaying the packet on a gateway output port that is associated with the particular VTI to allow forwarding of the packet via a particular IPsec VPN tunnel of a plurality of IPsec VPN tunnels.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high-temperature resistant modified silicon-containing cyanate ester resin as well as a preparation method and an application thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding a mixed solution of hydroxyl silicone oil, a silane coupling agent and an organic solvent into a mixed solution of a tetramethylammonium hydroxide aqueous solution and a polar solvent, performing hydrolytic polycondensation at a temperature of 5-40° C. for 4-8 h, and performing distillation to obtain an epoxy-containing silsesquioxane; performing pre-polymerization on the epoxy-containing silsesquioxane and a cyanate ester resin at a temperature of 50-100° C. for 1-8 h to obtain a modified cyanate ester resin; and uniformly mixing the modified cyanate ester resin and a modified anhydride, thereby obtaining the high-temperature resistant modified silicon-containing cyanate ester resin.

The nano-silica particles are dispersed uniformly and stably; the nana-silica hybrid vinyl phenyl silicon intermediate has the advantages of resisting high temperatures and coronas and being high in activity; the temperature index measured according to a secant method is 200° C.-240° C., the measured corona-resistant time is 18-36h, and the vinyl active sites carried thereon can have a good compatibility with polyesterimide, heat-resistant polyesters, hydrogen-containing siloxane and modified epoxy; the intermediate is particularly suitable for preparing a high-temperature-resistant and corona-resistant solvent-free insulating varnish; and there are on volatile gases during use, thereby causing on pollution to the atmospheric environment.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a system including a first host computing device that includes a first virtual machine (VM) and a first application. The system also includes a second host computing device including a virtualization software layer, a second VM, and an auto-discovery service at least partially instantiated within the virtualization software layer. The auto-discovery service is configured to receive a message and an auto-discovery packet from a second application executing on the second VM. The auto-discovery service inserts an option into the auto-discovery packet, and transmits the auto-discovery packet to the first application. The option in the auto-discovery packet includes the message received from the second application.

Abstract: A vacuum filter which is resistant to hot debris and which prevents damage to the vacuum when damaged is disclosed. The vacuum filter may include a filter element which is formed of multiple layers of different material. The filter element may include an upstream layer of filter material which is exposed to incoming debris and which filters debris from air moving through a vacuum, a firebreak layer disposed adjacent the upstream layer of filter material and disposed downstream of the upstream layer of filter material, and a downstream layer of filter material which is disposed downstream of the firebreak layer. The firebreak layer and downstream layer of filter material may prevent damage to the vacuum and maintain the filtration ability of the filter if the upstream layer of filter material is damaged.

Abstract: Embodiments include a local cache management system that is configured to be coupled to a local cache and that includes an index engine configured to store fingerprints of message segments stored in the local cache and a redundancy management engine coupled to the index engine. The redundancy management engine includes an adaptive emitter configured to receive a message segment to be transmitted to a remote device, determine expected latency costs of a plurality of transmission algorithms, and select a transmission algorithm, such as by selecting the lowest expected latency cost. The adaptive emitter is also configured to determine whether the message segment is stored within a remote cache management system associated with the remote device, and transmit the message segment through a network to the remote cache management system using the selected transmission algorithm upon a determination that the message segment is not stored within the remote cache management system.
