摘要:
A device is dedicated to assigning prefixes for network equipments of an Internet Protocol communication network. It comprises processing means which, in the event of a request to assign a prefix of length L(Rk) for a network equipment Rk, determine a node Nj associated with an unallocated prefix Pj of length L(Pj) equal to L(Rk)−m, m≧0, in order to assign that prefix to the network equipment Rk if the value of m is equal to 0 or, if the value of m is greater than 0, to perform successively m loops each consisting in fragmenting the current prefix P into two prefixes P1 and P2 with lengths equal to L(P)+1 and then select one of the two prefixes P1 and P2 as the current prefix for the next loop, until there are obtained in the last of the m loops two prefixes with lengths equal to L(Rk), followed by the selection of one of them for assignment to the network equipment Rk.

A method is dedicated to dynamically assigning interface network identifiers for interfaces of network equipments connected to an Internet Protocol communication network including a DHCP network identifier server. In this method, when a network equipment requires an interface network identifier for one of its interfaces, designated by an interface identifier and connected to a link: i) there is generated in the network equipment and sent to the server a request for the assignment of an interface network identifier specifying the identifier of the interface that is the subject of the request and the identifiers of the other interfaces connected to the link; ii) on receipt of the request in the server, there is determined for the interface that is the subject of the request an interface network identifier common to all the interfaces connected to the same link; iii) the interface network identifier thus determined is sent to the network equipment that requested it so that it can configure the interface.

A device (D) is dedicated to controlling the transfer of units of connection time for a communication network (N1) having accounting and/or billing equipment (ABE1). This device (D) includes processing means (PM) that, when they receive a request to transfer a chosen quantity of units of connection time to a beneficiary account associated with the communication identifier of a first communication terminal (BT) connected to a communication network (N1), responsible for accessing a first set of accounting and/or billing equipment (ABE1) managing the account of a donor associated with the communication identifier of a second communication terminal (DT) connected to the communication network (R1), to verify whether the quantity of units of connection time that the donor's terminal (DT) has is at least equal to the chosen quantity, and if so, to order the first set of equipment (ABE1), which also manages the beneficiary's account, to transfer in real time a quantity of units of connection time at most equal to the quantity chosen from the donor's account to the beneficiary's account.
摘要:
A security-procuring method for making an item of communications equipment (E) secure, said item of communications equipment comprising an operating system core (K) and a set of software applications (A), said core including at least one IPv6 protocol stack (PS) making it possible to transmit incoming data packets from an input port (PIN) to an application (A) and to transmit outgoing data packets from an application (A) to an output port (POUT), said protocol stacks including a set of interfaces (HPRE, HIN, HOUT, HPOST) organized to enable external modules connected to them to access said data packets transmitted by said at least one protocol stack at determined points associated with said interfaces. Said method is characterized in that an input module (MIN) and an output module (MOUT) are connected respectively to an input interface (HIN) and to an output interface (HOUT) of said core (K), and in that said modules select, analyze, and, if necessary, modify the data packets of the Network Discovery Protocol (NDP), in compliance with the Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) mechanism.

摘要:
A gateway (G) between an Internet network (N) and a local network (NL) associated with a building constituted by a plurality of private premises and at least one common area; the common area and at least some of the private premises having multimedia terminals (T1, T2, T3, TP, . . . ) connected to the local network (NL). The gateway is characterized in that it comprises execution means for executing extended services downloaded from a server (S) accessible via said Internet network (N).
摘要:
A method for reserving resources in a packet communication network, preferably an IP protocol network. The method includes sending an active packet containing a request for reservation of resources for an active data flow, receiving the packet by an active node in the network, and reserving resources of the node according to the request. In this method, an active packet communication network node, in particular an IP active router, reserves resources for processing data of an active data flow according to a resource reservation request for this active data flow contained in this active packet received by the node.
摘要:
We describe an active node, which receives an active message containing an active application identifier, transmits the active application identifier to an active applications server. receives associated code from the active applications server, and executes the associated code. The active node also may transmit to the active applications server information relating to its own environment, and information relating to whether it is an edge node or core node in the network, enabling the active applications server to determine the associated code to return to the active node.
摘要:
The operating process for an active node (1) of a packet-switched communication network, and in particular of an active IP router, includes the following successive steps: a) receipt of an active packet sent by a terminal (2); b) execution of a request contained in the active packet, this request being intended to configure packet processing functions; c) and then execution of a program contained or identified in the active packet, this program being intended to control packet processing functions. The active packet can also be sent by the router to a recipient terminal (3). The invention also proposes an active node, in particular an IP router, implementing the process. The invention also proposes a data packet which includes a request and a program or an identifier for a program, the request and the program being intended for execution by an active node.
