摘要:
A graphic user interface of a network client (106) includes a stock ticker from a stock server (110) and a news sidebar from a news server (112) over the IP addresses advertised to the client (106) in its list of mutli-homed addresses from the video server (104) specified under Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). The client accepts real-time data from the stock exchange server and the news agency server on the multi-homed IP addresses designated in the association with the video server (104) without knowing that the data is coming from a different source than the video server (104). The real-time data feeds from the video, stock and news servers are aggregated on the client (106) with enhanced speed because the feeds come directly to the client and not via the video server. The operating systems of the home server and remote servers utilize SCTP and specialized commands to implement the enhanced speed of real-time data aggregation being streamed to network clients without requiring modifications to existing client systems.

A method for processing data packets in an interception proxy server without using a Network Address Translation module. A TCP packet received at a router is encapsulated using generic routing encapsulation (GRE). The TCP packet is redirected to a proxy server through a GRE tunnel which includes a redirection rule comprising a local destination IP address and port to be used for traffic passed through the tunnel. When the proxy server receives the TCP packet, the TCP packet is decapsulated. If a flag is set in the payload header of the TCP packet indicating that a redirection rule has been configured for traffic passed through the tunnel, the payload header of the TCP packet is modified according to the redirection rule. The modified TCP packet is then passed to a transmission control protocol of the proxy server.

A solution for managing a communications connection, in which one or more acknowledgements are filtered is provided. In particular, data can be obtained for forwarding to a remote device, and at least some of the data can be communicated for processing on the remote device. Subsequently, an acknowledgement is received for the at least some of the data, and a determination is made as to whether to forward the acknowledgement based on an optimization configuration. The invention can include several checks to ensure that any acknowledgement that should be forwarded for further processing is properly forwarded. In one embodiment, the invention is implemented on a network adapter, and enables numerous acknowledgements that are received by the network adapter for a large send data packet to be filtered and not provided to a protocol stack.

Methods, system, and products are disclosed for administering requests for data communications connections in a wide area network that include receiving, according to a data communications protocol, by a receiver from a sender, a request for a data communications connection, wherein the sender has a network address on a sender's network and the receiver has a network address on a receiver's network; characterizing the sender as local with respect to the receiver's network if the sender's network is the receiver's network; characterizing the sender as remote with respect to the receiver's network if the sender's network is not the receiver's network; and responding to the request in dependence upon a value of a location response flag and in dependence upon the characterization of the sender's network with respect to the receiver's network.

Methods, systems, and media to reduce delays associated with port assignments are disclosed. More specifically, embodiments include hardware and/or software to delay binding of selected port numbers to instances of applications. Some embodiments identify port numbers for which applications generate multiple bind calls that may connect with unique remote ports. The port numbers are stored in a port list that is accessible to the protocol stack and memory is allocated for storing flags and additional port configuration data. When a bind call is associated with a port number bound to another application instance and the port number is included in the port list, the bind call may then be delayed until a connect is received from the corresponding application instance. When the resulting four tuple is unique for the computer system, the corresponding application instance is bound to the port number and connected with the remote port.

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for multicast tunneling for mobile devices. The method comprises receiving a multicast packet directed to a plurality of mobile nodes, the mobile nodes being associated with a home subnet and identifying if any of the plurality of the mobile nodes are coupled to a subnet other than the home subnet, wherein each of the identified mobile nodes has an associated transmission path through which that mobile node can be reached. The method further provides that in response to determining that at least some of the mobile nodes are coupled to the subnet other than the home subnet, determining which of the identified mobile nodes has a common next hop in their associated transmission path and generating a packet including at least a portion of the multicast packet and including in the packet a list of mobile nodes that have the common next hop. The method further provides for transmitting the generated packet to the common next hop.

A method, computer program product, and data processing system for efficiently discovering and storing path MTU information in a sending host are disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, two path MTU tables are maintained. One path MTU table contains MTU values corresponding to the first-hop routers associated with the sending host. The other path MTU table contains MTU values corresponding to individual destination hosts. When the sending host needs to send information to a destination, it first consults the MTU table associated with individual destination hosts. If an entry for that destination host is found in the table, the sending host uses that MTU value. If not, the sending host consults the MTU table for the first-hop router on the path to the destination host and uses that MTU value. If that MTU value is too high, a new entry is made in the host-specific MTU table for the destination host.
摘要:
Responsive to receiving a request for a data communications connection, a data communications module of a receiver determines whether a sender of the request is local or remote with respect to the receiver. The data communications module also determines whether a location response flag indicates local or remote. If the relative location of the sender with respect to the receiver corresponds with the location response flag, then the data communications connection is allowed. Otherwise, the connection is not allowed.

A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for efficiently using disk space when unarchiving files in the same file system. An archive file is read to identify a total number of data files in the archive file. The number of headers in the archive file is determined based on the total number of data files. A location in a first disk space of a largest data file in the archive file is determined from an offset in a header corresponding to the largest data file. The largest data file is then copied from the first disk space to a second disk space. The first disk space occupied by the largest data file is then released by truncating the archive file. The obtaining, copying, and releasing steps are repeated for each data file in the archive file until all of the data files are unarchived.
