Patent number: 11799793Abstract: Systems and techniques, including special messages and state machines, are described that configures an intermediate site to dynamically trigger creation of and removal of a dynamic conduit between two sites based on usage that is tracked at the sites. The intermediate site providing WAN-to-WAN forwarding between the two sites, monitors throughput statistics on each local WAN link (LWL) associated with the two sites. If traffic between the two sites passes a configured first threshold or if LWL usage passes a configured second threshold, the intermediate site sends a message to the two sites to set up a dynamic conduit directly coupling the two sites. Busy lists are used to keep track of eligible site pairs. Once a dynamic conduit is set up between two sites, a grow technique tests the dynamic conduit increasing communication flows between the two sites each configured sampling period before putting the conduit in normal use.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2020Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: TALARI NETWORKS INCORPORATEDInventors: Wei Huang, Todd Martin, Justin Allen Patterson, Robert W.

Patent number: 11483752Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile radio station in communication with a current base station of a plurality of base stations receives hello packets from one or more of the base stations. The hello packets from the current base station are received on a first frequency via a first mobile radio unit (M1) and the hello packets from one or more base stations are received on a second frequency via a second mobile radio unit (M2). When the signal strength value of the current base station exceeds a threshold value, the mobile radio station: selects a destination from the plurality of base stations based on the destination having a highest signal strength value among those in the plurality of base stations that sent hello packets to M2 on the second frequency, and forces a handoff from M1 to M2, by establishing a new link between M2 and the destination base station.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: FLUIDMESH NETWORKS S.R.I.Inventors: Gaetano Catalli, Alessandro Erta, Luca Bisti, Umberto Malesci

Patent number: 11477116Abstract: An ethernet bridge is configured for deployment in a network. The ethernet bridge includes a memory configured to store a first identifier that uniquely identifies the ethernet bridge within the network. The ethernet bridge also includes a transceiver configured to receive a first data link layer packet. The ethernet bridge further includes a processor configured to selectively forward the first data link layer packet based on whether a first recorded route for ethernet (RRE) in the first data link layer packet includes the first identifier. Selectively forwarding the first data link layer packet includes dropping the first data link layer packet in response to the first identifier being in the first data link layer packet or pushing the first identifier onto the first RRE in the first data link layer packet in response to the first identifier not being in the first data link layer packet.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventor: Pranjal Kumar Dutta

Patent number: 11411876Abstract: Techniques for optimizing segment routing (SR) paths using segment identifiers (SIDs) are disclosed, including determining a packet is to be sent from a first node to a second node of a network using an SR method. The techniques may also include determining a segment quantization factor that is representative of a first number of SIDs that are included in a segment quantization interval.
