Latest Patents

“Method, Device and Medium for Determining Operations Performed on a Packet” describes a system for tracing how a network device handles a packet. The device identifies packets suitable for tracing, marks them with a trace option identifier, and adds tags corresponding to operations performed on or in connection with them. It can then export the packet, generate a report from the tags, and send the report to a network management station.

“Utilizing Captured IP Packets to Determine Operations Performed on Packets by a Network Device” describes capturing packets and forwarding them through a network device while logging the operations performed on them. The captured packet data can help determine how the device processed the packets.

Career Highlights
