Systems and methods provide bandwidth management on the inroute of a satellite network. Inroute group managers (IGMs) monitor bandwidth usage in each terminal group (TG) under each of the IGMs, and report this bandwidth usage to a bandwidth manager. Upon receipt of the reported bandwidth usage from each of the IGMs, the bandwidth manager compares the bandwidth usage and minimum/maximum throughput rates associated with each TG. The bandwidth manager calculates scaling factors that it transmits to each of the IGMs to allow the IGMs to allocate bandwidth accordingly.

Bandwidth management across logical groupings of access points in a shared access broadband network

A communication system, an apparatus and a method to route an Internet Protocol (IP) datagram with a standard internet routing protocol over a space link. The method including: routing according to the standard internet routing protocol including a current routing table including routing via the space link; receiving an Internet Protocol (IP) datagram including a destination; querying the routing stack to determine whether the destination is linked via the space link; and forwarding the IP Datagram to a space link address when IP datagram's destination is linked via the space link.

Method for route propagation over a satellite link, and a system thereof

An apparatus and a system to preserve Internet Protocol (IP) addressing over a space link is disclosed. The apparatus includes: a network interface; a space link interface; a configuration table comprising Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) network information and a satellite hub table, wherein the VSAT network information comprises subnet and range information for a network linked to the network interface; and a VSAT registration module. The VSAT registration module is configured to: select a satellite hub from the satellite hub table for communicating with using the space link interface, register the apparatus with the selected hub, and advertise the local-network information by communicating a route based on the local-network information to the selected hub, wherein the local-network information is independent of the hub selected from the satellite hub table.
