摘要： Network elements provide application-level QoS for application-layer messages processed therein. An application based message is examined upon IP reassembly thereof. Information is accessed about a sender of the message. A credential is assigned to the sender based on the sender information and/or a status validated for a device that sends said message. The message is dynamically prioritized in relation to other network traffic to provide application QoS based on the sender credential and/or the device status. The message priority is changeable on the fly according to the dynamically variable information. Sender information relates to a role or authority level associated therewith and is dynamically variable with respect to time, situation and/or circumstance. Thus, OSI Layer 5, 6, or 7 application message role/status based attributes determine how packets are marked with Layer 2, 3 or 4 QoS values, integrating application-level concepts of order and priority into network-layer QoS mechanisms.

摘要： A data processing apparatus comprises instructions to perform sending and receiving one or more messages conforming to a network routing protocol, such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF); obtaining one or more information elements that specify one or more capabilities of the apparatus; creating a particular routing protocol message comprising an opaque advertisement that includes the one or more information elements; and sending the particular message on one of the network interfaces. For example, a router or switch that implements a network routing protocol can use OSPF Opaque Link State Advertisements to advertise and discover services and capabilities of other routers or switches.

摘要： In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises logic encoded in one or more tangible media for enhancing transmission reliability of monitored data. The logic is operable to receive a plurality of segments for transmission over a TCP connection to a network node, where the TCP connection is associated with a transmit queue and a retransmit queue. The logic is also operable to detect a transmission anomaly on the TCP connection to the network node, and in response to detecting the transmission anomaly, is operable to perform any one of: store segments into a persistent buffer prior to transferring the segments into the transmit queue; copy segments from the retransmit queue into the persistent buffer, where the segments have been transmitted but not yet acknowledged by the network node; and copy segments from the transmit queue into the persistent buffer, where the segments have not yet been transmitted to the network node.

摘要： Methods and devices are provided for maintaining configuration synchronization when an Active unit and a Standby unit have different versions of a software image. Preferred implementations allow the system to operate in a stateful mode even after the Standby unit has had an image upgrade. Other implementations allow the system to operate in a stateful mode when the Active unit has a higher-level version of the image than the Standby unit.

摘要： A network element such as a router or switch provides application-level quality of service for application-layer messages processed in the network element, using application QoS logic which when executed by the one or more processors is operable to cause receiving an application-layer message; matching one or more attributes of the application-layer message to the message classification rules; determining a message classification of the application-layer message based on the matching; selecting one of the network-level QoS values using the mapping and based on the determined message classification; and marking a network-level header of the application-layer message using the selected QoS value. As a result, attributes of application messages at OSI Layer 5, 6, or 7 can be used to determine how to mark packets of the messages with QoS values at OSI Layer 2, 3 or 4, integrating application-level concepts of order and priority into network-layer QoS mechanisms.

摘要： Methods and devices are disclosed for changing the configuration state of a network device such as a router, a switch or a similar device without the need for a person to interpret a textual diff. According to some aspects of the invention, a programmatic diff file that includes the output of two comparisons is used as an input file to a program that “rolls back” the current configuration state to a prior configuration state. According to other aspects of the invention, the output of a single comparison is input to an “incremental diff” process, which adds new commands to a configuration state. According to preferred aspects of the invention, the output files generated by the comparison processes preserve the hierarchical context of each command in a programmatic format that is usable as direct input by the network device or by another device (such as a host controlled by a network administrator) that performs the incremental diff.
