Patent number: 11683286Abstract: Techniques for using Network Address Translation (NAT), Mobile Internet Protocol (MIP), and/or other techniques in conjunction with Domain Name System (DNS) to anonymize server-side addresses in data communications. Rather than having DNS provide a client device with an IP address of an endpoint device, such as a server, the DNS instead returns a virtual IP (VIP) address that is mapped to the client device and the endpoint device. In this way, IP addresses of servers are obfuscated by a virtual network of VIP addresses. The client device may then communicate data packets to the server using the VIP address as the destination address, and a virtual network service that works in conjunction with DNS can convert the VIP address to the actual IP address of the server using NAT and forward the data packet onto the server.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Pascal Thubert, Pradeep Kumar Kathail, Eric Levy-Abegnoli, David A.

Patent number: 11570138Abstract: Network devices that are inserted inline into network links and process in-transit packets may significantly improve their packet-throughput performance by not assigning L3 IP addresses and L2 MAC addresses to their network interfaces and thereby process packets through a logical fast path that bypasses the slow path through the operating system kernel. When virtualizing such Bump-In-The-Wire (BITW) devices for deployment into clouds, the network interfaces must have L3 IP and L2 MAC addresses assigned to them. Thus, packets are processed through the slow path of a virtual BITW device, significantly reducing the performance. By adding new logic to the virtual BITW device and/or configuring proxies, addresses, subnets, and/or routing tables, a virtual BITW device can process packets through the fast path and potentially improve performance accordingly. For example, the virtual BITW device may be configured to enforce a virtual path (comprising the fast path) through the virtual BITW device.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2022Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: Centripetal Networks, Inc.Inventors: Richard Goodwin, Paul Sprague, Peter Geremia, Sean Moore

Patent number: 11546388Abstract: A computer has a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to receive a real time communication request from a client device and perform an evaluation of the number of client devices associated with the real time communication request. The evaluation results in the coordination of peer-to-peer communications in the event of two client devices and an attempt to host a real time communication session using a first protocol in the event of three or more client devices. A second protocol for the real time communication session is invoked in the event that the attempt to host the real time communication session using the first protocol is unsuccessful.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2021Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Michael Dröse, Tadeusz Kozak, Kavan Antony Seggie, Dmitry Sobinov

Patent number: 11533369Abstract: A computer-implemented method of managing tenants on a multi-tenant SIP server system has at least two multi-tenant enabled SIP server instances in an SIP server cloud or private datacenter environment. Each SIP server instance of the plurality of SIP server instances is configured as a virtual application. The method contains the steps of initially configuring a first tenant on a first SIP server instance, monitoring the capacity of the first SIP server instance, and monitoring the capacity of a second SIP server instance. The monitoring of the first and second SIP server instances is carried out by monitoring at least one predetermined capacity-relevant value. When the at least one predetermined capacity-relevant value exceeds a predetermined threshold value indicating that capacity resources are low on the first SIP server instance, then the first tenant is moved from the first SIP server instance to the second SIP server instance.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2020Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignee: RingCentral, Inc.Inventors: Karl Klaghofer, Johannes Ruetschi, Stefan Ried

Patent number: 11528742Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods relate to an automatic transmission scheme for a de-prioritized protocol data unit (PDU) when the originally assigned configured grant for the PDU is de-prioritized due to channel conflicts. Specifically, a user equipment may obtain a PDU for transmission over a first configured grant physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) instance. The UE may then detect de-prioritization information that the first configured grant PUSCH instance is de-prioritized due to channel overlapping, and then automatically transmit the PDU originally associated with the first configured grant PUSCH instance over a second configured grant PUSCH instance.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2020Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Vinay Joseph, Ozcan Ozturk, Rajat Prakash, Arnaud Meylan

Patent number: 11520796Abstract: A method for managing data processing includes receiving, from a user of a data query system, a data query for data stored in a data store in communication with the data query system. The method also includes receiving a staleness parameter indicating an upper time boundary for the data query. The upper time boundary limits a query response to data within the data store that is older than the upper time boundary. The method further includes determining whether the data stored within the data store satisfies the staleness parameter. When a portion of the data within the data store fails to satisfy the staleness parameter, the method includes generating the query response that excludes the portion of the data that fails to satisfy the staleness parameter.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2020Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Pavan Edara, Jonathan Forbes, Yang Yi
