    摘要: A capability is provided for providing transparent cloud computing with a virtualized network infrastructure. A method for enabling use of a resource of a data center as an extension of a customer network includes receiving, at a forwarding element (FE), a packet intended for a virtual machine hosted at an edge domain of the data center, determining a VLAN ID of the VLAN for the customer network in the edge domain, updating the packet to include the VLAN ID of the VLAN for the customer network in the edge domain, and propagating the updated packet from the FE toward virtual machine. The edge domain supports a plurality of VLANs for a respective plurality of customer networks. The packet includes an identifier of the customer network and a MAC address of the virtual machine. The VLAN ID of the VLAN for the customer network in the edge domain is determined using the identifier of the customer network and the MAC address of the virtual machine. The FE may be associated with the edge domain at which the virtual machine is hosted, an edge domain of the data center that is different than the edge domain at which the virtual machine is hosted, or the customer network. Depending on the location of the FE at which the packet is received, additional processing may be provided as needed.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a method for supporting recovery from failure of a node in a network of nodes interconnected by links A set of two or more intermediate nodes (excluding the failed node) between an ingress point and an egress point is selected. Next, based on available bandwidth of the network, a non-zero fraction of the service level to route from the ingress point to each intermediate node is determined. Packets are then routed in two phases by: (1) determining one or more paths from the ingress point to each intermediate node for routing the corresponding fraction of the service level, and (2) determining one or more paths from each intermediate node to the egress point for routing the corresponding fraction of the service level.

    摘要: The invention includes a method and apparatus for determining a coincidence count associated with a traffic flow in a network. The method includes receiving a first packet having a first flow identifier associated with one of the traffic flows, comparing the first flow identifier of the first packet to each of a plurality of other flow identifiers associated with a respective plurality of other packets, and determining a coincidence count associated with the first flow identifier based on the comparison of the first flow identifier to each of the plurality of other flow identifiers. The method for determining a coincidence count associated with one of a plurality of traffic flows may be extended for determining respective coincidence counts associated with a plurality of traffic flows. The determined coincidence counts may be used for determining at least one traffic flow statistic.

    摘要: A variable-stride multi-pattern matching apparatus segments patterns and input streams into variable-size blocks according to a modified winnowing algorithm. The variable-stride pattern segments are used to determine the block-symbol alphabet for a variable-stride discrete finite automaton (VS-DFA) that is used for detecting the patterns in the input streams. Applications include network-intrusion detection and protection systems, genome matching, and forensics. The modification of the winnowing algorithm includes using special hash values to determine the position of delimiters of the patterns and input streams. The delimiters mark the beginnings and ends of the segments. In various embodiments, the patterns are segmented into head, core, and tail blocks. The approach provides for memory, memory-bandwidth, and processor-cycle efficient, deterministic, high-speed, line-rate pattern matching.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a wireless-resource broker employs a self-enforcing spectrum-sharing policy, e.g., the expected utility (e.g., rate) a user obtains by following the policy provided by the broker is not less than the expected utility that the user obtains by switching to some other strategy. Each user is associated with one or more transmitter-receiver pairs, e.g., a transmitter of a wireless device and a receiver of a base station in communication via a wireless channel. The broker receives, as input, user parameters characterizing one or more of the transmitters and/or receivers and resource parameters characterizing one or more available spectrum blocks. The broker solves a linear-programming problem to generate and transmit a recommended policy for one or more users. The policy for each user includes information such as the spectrum block(s) to which the user is assigned, the transmission power for the user, and the transmission rate for the user.

    摘要: A network of nodes interconnected by links, such as a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ring network, is modeled by a delayed graph in which propagation delay between nodes is accounted for. Given the delayed graph, a traffic matrix for an admissible traffic pattern is scheduled over a frame period. Scheduling of the traffic matrix formulates a set of scheduling constraints based on the delays and decomposes the traffic matrix into a set of transmission matrices. Each of the set of transmission matrices is scheduled over the frame period.

    摘要: A method of estimating per-flow traffic in a network of nodes interconnected by links splits the incoming traffic stream to a node into a number of parallel sub-streams by flow assignment using a hash function. Since each flow in the incoming traffic stream constitutes a larger fraction of the traffic in its sub-stream, the probability of obtaining two-runs increases. The number of two-runs per flow is then employed to generate an estimate of the traffic of the flow.
