摘要:
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.

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.

In an access network, a tunnel gateway (TGW) managed network caching architecture is proposed. The proposed TGW receives a terminal request directed to a data server for a flow of data. The terminal request is forwarded to the TGW through a tunnel from a tunnel endpoint located below the TGW. The TGW selects a network cache to handle the data traffic of the flow requested by the requesting terminal. The TGW then redirects the terminal request to the selected network cache to provide the requested service. The TGW redirects the terminal request through a tunnel whose endpoint is the selected network cache.

A technique of processing network traffic that is sent on a tunnel between a first tunnel and a second tunnel node in a communication network is provided. A device implementation of this technique comprises an enhanced network address translation, eNAT, component (10) comprising a first obtaining unit (14) configured to obtain an uplink data packet (26) from an uplink tunnel from the first tunnel node to the second tunnel node, the uplink data packet comprising a first network address associated with the first tunnel node, a second network address associated with the second tunnel node, a first identifier associated with the uplink tunnel an internal network address, and an internal port number, a second obtaining unit (16) configured to obtain a second identifier associated with a downlink tunnel from the second tunnel node to the first tunnel node, wherein the downlink tunnel is related to the uplink tunnel, a checking unit (18) configured to check, based on the second network address and the first identifier, whether a database entry comprising the second network address and the first identifier exists in a database (12), an up-dating unit (20) configured to update the database (12) in case the checked database entry does not exist in the database (12), and a manipulating unit (22) configured to manipulate the uplink data packet (26).
摘要:
A technique for address resolution in data transmission networks, for example ARP-based address resolution in IPv4 networks. An embodiment of the technique comprises the following steps performed in a host of the data transmission network: Maintaining an association of at least one physical address with at least one network address range comprising multiple network addresses; obtaining a target network address; comparing the target network address with the network address range to determine an associated target physical address; and providing the determined target physical address, e.g. for initiating a data transmission.

摘要:
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.
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.

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.
