Systems and methods for managing network traffic receives, at a grade of service device, network traffic information for a plurality of network traffic channels from a network device separate from the grade of service device. The network traffic information is compared to a threshold to determine a behavior value for each network traffic channel. Each network traffic channel is mapped to a grade of service according to the behavior value.

Grade of service control closed loop

Fault-tolerant signaling in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network architecture is disclosed. A method can comprise initiating a primary signaling path to a signaling server device; in response to the initiating, establishing an alternate signaling path to a web application server device, wherein a call session is established over the primary signaling path; monitoring the primary signaling path for a session failure; and in response to the session failure, switching the call session from using the primary signaling path to using the alternate signaling path.

LTE fault-tolerant signaling approach

The system may provide automatic real-time filtering and information object selection, which may occur at the presentation layer. Presentations may be tailored on a per user basis. Users with different security levels can participate in a video conference call at the same time and only view what their security clearance allows.

Object-managed secured multicast system

A method including formatting an advertisement message having a dedicated preferred route to one of a first physical entity and a first logical entity of a first autonomous system ('AS'), the dedicated preferred route being based on at least two routing attributes, and transmitting the advertisement message from the first AS to a second AS. A routing device including a formatting module formatting an advertisement message having a dedicated preferred route to one of a first physical entity and a first logical entity of a first autonomous system ('AS'), the dedicated preferred route being based on at least two routing attributes, and a transmitting module transmitting the advertisement message from the first AS to a second AS.

Method and system for gateway selection in inter-region communication on IP networks

Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for providing a closed control loop for data centers. The data centers can receive monitoring data that can include congestion data and class of service data. The data centers can store the monitoring data in a data storage device, analyze the monitoring data, and determine that a performance threshold is satisfied. In response to a determination that the performance threshold is met, the data centers can determine that a time-based threshold is met. In response to a determination that the time-based threshold is met, the data centers can adjust execution of a hosted service.

Closed control loops for data centers

The present invention includes a method, a system, and a computer readable medium for establishing a connection between hosts in a computer network with the connection configured for symmetrical forward and reverse routing. The method uses the following steps. First, a first host local routing table to route a packet from a first host to a first gateway according to a routing protocol. Next, the first gateway local routing table routes the packet from the first gateway to a first access router. After that, a first access router local routing table routes the packet from the first access router to a second access router. Then, a second access router local routing table routes the packet from the second access router to a second gateway. Finally, a second gateway local routing table routes the packet from the second gateway router to a second host.

Method and system for symmetric routing

A method and apparatus for flow based load balancing are disclosed. For example, the present method receives at least one packet from a flow. If the flow has not being previously classified, then the flow is classified based on the characteristics of the flow. Once classified, the present method matches the flow to at least one matched path from a plurality of available paths in accordance with the characteristics of the flow and characteristics of the at least one matched path. Once matched, the present method forwards the packet from the flow to the at least one matched path for processing.

Method and apparatus for providing flow based load balancing

Described is a system and method for receiving an electronic mail including an attachment file and separating the attachment file from the electronic mail. The attachment is then sent to a remote source and the attachment file is replaced with a substitute file including identifying data for retrieving the attachment file from the remote source. The electronic mail with the substitute file is then forwarded to a receiver.

System and method for an electronic mail attachment proxy

Certain exemplary embodiments provide a method for converting data packets based upon IPv4 protocol into data packets based upon IPv6 protocol, said method comprising converting any data packet based upon the IPv4 protocol into a data packet based upon the IPv6 protocol before transmitting it to an IP switched network using information provided by an external server, and converting any data packet based upon the IPv6 protocol provided by said IP switched network into a data packet based upon the IPv4 protocol before transmitting it to a first or second workstation.
