摘要:
A system and method are disclosed for establishing a connection between a first endpoint participating in a first protocol and a second endpoint participating in a second protocol. Establishing a connection includes establishing a virtual service endpoint participating in the first protocol on a network device that is connected to the first endpoint and the second endpoint and forwarding to the second endpoint communication directed from the first endpoint to the virtual service endpoint.

A system and method are disclosed for processing a packet. Processing the packet comprises receiving the packet; translating the packet from a first protocol-specific format to a canonical packet format; translating the packet from the canonical packet format to a second protocol-specific format; and forwarding the packet.

摘要:
A method for operating a network having one or more nodes wherein each of the nodes having one or more resources, comprising the steps of: forming the network using one or more nodes, wherein certain one or more of the nodes is a gateway connecting to two or more different network connection types; and managing the one or more nodes of the network; wherein the nodes are segregated into one or more cells each having one or more of the nodes and one or more supernodes; wherein the nodes within the same cell are interconnected; and wherein the supernodes are interconnected.

A technique for communicating in a network management system is disclosed. The technique includes transferring information from an application server to a gateway that processes the information, transferring the gateway processed information from the gateway to a plurality of adapters associated with the gateway that process the gateway processed information, and transferring the adapter processed information from one of the adapters to a client.
摘要:
A gateway switch comprises: two or more transceiving modules, wherein each of the transceiving modules is capable of transmitting and receiving data, wherein the data is an analog signal or a digital signal, and wherein each of the transceiving modules provides a different network connection type; a system module for processing the received data in accordance with one or more rules; and a switching module for symmetrically switching the processed data from any one of the transceiving modules to a selected one of the transceiving modules for transmission of the processed data; wherein the system module selects one of the transceiving modules for the transmission of the processed data as a function of the rules.
摘要:
A technique for creating a connection is disclosed. The technique includes receiving instructions to set a first endpoint, receiving instructions to set a second endpoint, receiving instructions to set a connection between the first and second endpoints, and transferring the instructions to set the two endpoints and the connection to network elements associated with the two endpoints after receiving the instructions to set the connection. A technique for retrieving a connection endpoint index from a connection table is also disclosed. The technique includes reading a common index column element, wherein the common index column contains indexes corresponding to a plurality of service types, and interpreting the index column element based on an interface index that identifies the service type.
