摘要:
Network system comprising multiple access network gateways interconnected via networking equipment, each of the access network gateways being adapted for connecting user equipment devices to the network system, wherein the network system comprises a database wherein private networks are defined as groups of predetermined user equipment devices, and wherein the access network gateway are configured to interconnect user equipment devices belonging to a single private network via SDN service chains to emulate the single private network inside the network system.

Method for operating a user equipment device in a private network by a visiting device from outside the private network, each device being connected via a server gateway to a network function on a common server outside the private network, comprising the steps of: (i) creating and managing a private network context for both the user equipment device and the visiting device by each respective network function; (ii) consulting one or more databases defined by the network functions to authenticate the user equipment device and visiting device and subsequently determine whether the user equipment device and visiting device are allowed to join their private contexts; and if they are allowed to join their private contexts, (iii) setting up connections between the network functions on the server to join the private contexts of the user equipment device and visiting device and therewith allow interaction between said devices.
摘要:
A network node comprises at least one data plane processor (101) for handling data packets of a first type (144) and for redirecting and rate-limiting data packets of α second type (142). A control plane processor (102) in the network node handles the data packets of α second type (142) redirected by the data plane processor (101). In order to protect the control plane processor (102) against overload, e.g. caused by Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, individual flows of data packets of the second type are identified for enhanced rate-limiting by the data plane processor (101).
摘要:
The present invention is related to a device for channel selection in an IPTV system containing an IPTV server and a plurality of IPTV clients. The device comprises means for receiving a channel change request, storage means for storing meta-information on a plurality of channels and a selection engine arranged for outputting a channel change command corresponding to a selected channel. The device is characterised in that the selection engine is arranged for selecting a channel from the plurality of channels based on the meta-information in combination with at least one selection criterion related to a group of users using different IPTV clients of the IPTV system.
