    Abstract: Methods and switch devices for switching data frames are described. A method performed by a source switch device may include receiving a data frame from a source host node, wherein the data frame includes a MAC address of the source host node and a destination MAC address; modifying the received data frame by modifying a part of the source MAC address in the received data frame with information comprising: the switch ID, a port number and a reference number; and determining if there is a table in the source switch device. Further, if the received data frame is an ARP request message, the method may include modifying the modified data frame by replacing a sender MAC address with the modified part of the source MAC address and flooding the further modified data frame, to at least one switch device.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for setting up a communication connection to a server for a requesting network device. The method comprises: receiving reference authentication data; storing the reference authentication data; comparing received the authentication data of the requesting network device to the reference authentication data; requesting a communication connection from the server; and generating an acknowledgement signal to the requesting network device, the acknowledgement signal indicating the requesting network device an acceptance to connect to the server and a network address to be used for the connection, receiving a connection request from the network device; and combining the connection request with the communication connection set up between the authentication server and the server. The invention also relates to an authentication server device, a communication system, and a computer program product.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for establishing a communication session. First, the communication session is initiated by a server. Next, a first connection request is generated for a voice call between a first WebRTC device and a second WebRTC device over a WebRTC gateway device. A second connection request including an identifier of first WebRTC device is generated towards a connection management server. Next, an inquiry to the connection management server by the second WebRTC device is generated for determining if a connection request is received from the first WebRTC device, and in that case the communication session including both the first connection for the voice call and a second connection is established.
