A method of allowing a nomadic terminal to access a home network on the Layer 2 level. The method comprises connecting said terminal to a remote access network via an access point, the remote access network being connected to an operator's backbone network via a remote access router. Signalling is exchanged between the access point and an authentication server within the backbone network in order to authenticate the terminal to the authentication server and, following successful authentication, a Layer 2 tunnel extending across the backbone network is established for the purpose of connecting said nomadic terminal to the home network.

The present invention relates to a method for controlling downloading of video segments or segmented video stream to a subscriber client unit, and a subscriber client unit adapted to perform said method. One object of the invention is to guarantee seamless playback and the optimal server load. Said object is by a method and a subscriber client unit that is controlled by a segment selector (SSA) and a server bandwidth control (SBC) algorithm.

A method is described to be implemented by a node in a network. The method is for selecting an endpoint for a maximally redundant tree-fast reroute (MRT-FRR) detour path to optimize detour path cost or length across the network. The method defines a set of steps including selecting a destination node and next hop failure to calculate detour paths. A clean set of nodes for the network is then calculated, where the clean set of nodes are nodes in the network that are not impacted in reaching the destination node by the failure in the given next hop. A candidate node for the endpoint of the detour p path is selected from the set of clean nodes based on any one of a plurality of configured options and forwarding of data packets is configured to the selected candidate as the endpoint of the detour path to the destination node.

A method, a mobility node 211 and a new mobility anchor 214b configured to operatively relocate the mobility anchor 214a for a mobile terminal 215a in a wireless communication system 200. The relocation is achieved by a request for redirecting an old bearer B-old configured to communicate user-data between the mobile terminal 215a and an old mobility anchor 214a, and by setting up a new standby bearer B-new configured to operatively communicate user-data between the Mobile Terminal 215a and the new mobility anchor 214b. The standby bearer B-old is ready to be activated once the old bearer B-old is deleted.

A method for setting up a VPN is described. The VPN is set up in a backbone network having a plurality of PE routers for controlling the transfer of IP traffic to and from CE routers in satellite networks. In a PE router, a VRF is configured for the VPN and populated with local routes for the VPN. A VLAN identifier is assigned for the VPN, and advertised to other PE routers in the backbone network. Alternatively, the VLAN identifier may be determined by a predetermined mapping algorithm so it will be unique to the VPN in all PE routers, in which case the advertisement to other PE routers may contain an implicit NULL label.
摘要:
A method for adapting the data traffic of a communication between a user equipment and a communication network. The user equipment includes an entity for providing a service associated to the communication. The method includes determining actual operational status information of the service providing entity and creating an usage indicator based on said operational status information. Further the method includes the steps of sending the usage indicator to the communication network and adapting the data traffic of the communication in accordance with the usage indicator. A related user equipment provides the usage indicator to the communication network. A related traffic controller of a communication network adapts the data traffic of a communication between the user equipment and the communication network.

A network node for reserving resources for data flows in a communication network. The node detects a request for resource reservation for a new data flow and computes an admission test count based on descriptors of the new data flow and reservation counts, which represent reservation functions of descriptors of previously admitted data flows and which specify resources of the admitted data flows. The new data flow is admitted if the admission test count is smaller than a maximum allowable count. The reservation counts are then updated based on the descriptors of the new data flow. A plurality of admission formulas may thus be used to maintain aggregated reservation counts for data flows, the number of counts being independent from the number of flows.

Disclosed is a method of configuring routing information in a network router linked into a network. The network router has a forwarding table. The method comprises removing the forwarding table entries which are not used. A network router configured in accordance with the method has a forwarding table comprising only forwarding table entries that are used.

There is described a method and apparatus for sending data through one or more packet data networks. A stripped-down packet is sent from a packet sending node towards a cache node, the stripped down packet including in its payload a pointer to a payload data segment stored in a file at the cache node. When the stripped-down packet is received at the cache node, the pointer is used to identify the payload data segment from data stored at the cache node. The payload data segment is inserted into the stripped-down packet in place of the pointer so as to generate a full size packet, which is sent from the cache node towards a client.
