    Abstract: Methods and systems for monetizing editorial and user-generated content via conversion into affiliate marketing links. Aspects of the disclosure, for example, are directed to methods and systems configured to enable rewriting of URLs based on a synchronized database of merchants collected from a breadth of affiliate networks. In several embodiments, for example, upon posting of a URL to a user-generated website or on clicking of a URL on such a site by a user, the server system compares the domain name of the URL against a database of merchants synchronized across multiple affiliate networks. When a merchant's domain name is found, the server system may convert the URL using a deep linking syntax outlined in the merchant database so that the URL becomes an affiliate link that leads to the original URL via the corresponding affiliate network. User clicks on this converted URL may generate affiliate commissions.

    Abstract: Methods, network address translation (NAT) devices, network nodes and system for allowing identification of a private device in a public network or treating traffic of a private device in a public network. The NAT may allocate a private IPv4 address to the private device, reserve a block of ports on the public IPv4 address for the private device and send an identification of the block of ports to a network node in the public network. The network node of the public network may receive an identification of a block of ports on the public IPv4 address indicating that the block of ports is reserved for the private device and activate a rule for treating traffic of the private device.

    Abstract: In a load balancing system, user-configurable geographic prefixes are provided. IP address prefix allocations provided by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and associated geographic locations are stored in a first, static database in a load balancing switch, along with other possible default geographic location settings. A second, non-static database stores user-configured geographic settings. In particular, the second database stores Internet Protocol (IP) address prefixes and user-specified geographic regions for those prefixes. The specified geographic region can be continent, country, state, city, or other user-defined region. The geographic settings in the second database can override the information in the first database. These geographic entries help determine the geographic location of a client and host IP addresses, and aid in directing the client to a host server that is geographically the closest to that client.

    Abstract: Devices, system and methods build a mesh virtual private network (VPN) in a hybrid cloud cluster having a private and a public cloud with connected network nodes. Each node has an operating system (OS) to discover nodes of the VPN by determining IP addresses and port addresses of the nodes from data received from discovery agents. An internal discovery agent of each of the nodes determines IP addresses and port addresses of the nodes. A node discovery agent located within a node determines IP addresses and port addresses of other nodes. An external discovery agent located outside the cluster determines IP addresses and port addresses of nodes. A VPN configuration data generator of the OS generates VPN configuration data of the clouds using the IP addresses and port addresses. A VPN builder of the OS builds a configuration of the VPN of the hybrid cluster using the VPN configuration data.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose a method for parsing a service platform address by a server. The server receives a DNS parsing request sent by a terminal, the DNS parsing request including a to-be-parsed domain name. The server then obtains target IP information of the terminal based on the DNS parsing request. When the target IP information has a corresponding target user-defined line, the server obtains a preset first parsing record based on the target user-defined line. The server then sends to the terminal a first IP address corresponding to the to-be-parsed domain name based on the preset first parsing record. As such, a corresponding IP address range can be defined using a user-defined line, so that a terminal within the IP address range can obtain a specific IP address corresponding to an access domain name, and provide a service to a user within a more accurate range.

    Abstract: A method for improving client subnet efficiency by equivalence class aggregation includes receiving a Domain Name System (DNS) query from a client, determining, based on predetermined class criteria, that the client is associated with an equivalency class, searching a cache associated with the equivalence class for an answer corresponding to the DNS query, and upon locating the answer, serving the answer to the client. If it is determined that the cache does not include the answer, the method proceeds with querying, by a recursive server, an authoritative server using client subnet data associated with the equivalence class, receiving the answer from the authoritative server, storing the answer to the cache associated with the equivalency class, and serving the answer to the client. The client subnet data may include a representative CIDR block, the representative CIDR block being used to make queries on behalf of all clients associated with the equivalence class.
