Latest Patents
Theodore Qian holds a patent for the "MPLS cookie label." This invention presents a method and system for preventing the misforwarding of packets from an MPLS network to a virtual private network. The method involves receiving a packet at an ingress edge node of the MPLS network, associating a cookie with a label bound to a route by an egress edge node, and inserting the cookie on an MPLS label stack at the ingress edge node. The packet is then transmitted over the MPLS network to an egress edge node. The cookie allows the egress edge node to detect if the transmitted packet is misforwarded by comparing the cookie in the label stack of the transmitted packet with a stored cookie label at the egress edge node. This innovation enhances the reliability of data transmission across networks.
