摘要:
Disclosed is a communication network management system for converting action parameters contained in abstract requirements (abstract policy information) regarding a network to parameters conforming to the network technology (ATM, SDH, WDM, etc.) and type of network element to be set, and setting these parameters in the element. Specifically, a policy administration portion converts action parameters contained in abstract policy information to parameters dependent upon network technology and a policy enforcement portion converts the parameters obtained by this conversion to parameters dependent upon type of network element to be set and sets these parameters in the element.

A security server monitoring device is provided that performs quick redistribution of loads when a server load increases due to virus infections. A security server performs a virus check on data flowing through a network, thus statistical data relating to detected viruses can be obtained. For example, future communication traffic and increases and decreases in server loads are predicted using statistical information such as the number of virus infections (number of virus infections per unit of time), and on the basis of this prediction, a security server allocated to a path is quickly changed from a security server in which a high load is predicted to a security server with a comparably low load.

In a network management apparatus which manages a network composed of network elements installing different communication technologies such as an ATM, an MPLS, and a Diff-Serv, a QoS guarantee path route candidate retriever retrieves a route enabling a predetermined QoS to be guaranteed or a route enabling the predetermined QoS to be guaranteed by being assigned with the flow identifier from among routes between a source and a destination network elements based on network configuration information, QoS guarantee capability information, the flow identifier assignment capability information, and a QoS guarantee path establishing portion performs a QoS guarantee setting and a flow identifier assignment setting to the network elements on the retrieved route.

In a communication network managing system, at a network manager, a management section manages QoS (Quality of Service) capability management information from element managers, a request reception section receives a request for a target QoS capability, and a section and notification section selects a candidate subnetwork such as to satisfy the target QoS capability for which the request has been received by the request reception section, and notifies the corresponding element managers of information about the selection. At the individual element manager, based on the selection information from the selection and notification section of the network manager, a control section controls the corresponding subnetwork.

A communication device includes a congestion detecting part configured to detect congestion of traffic; and a message generation part configured to generate and send a MTU decreasing message, in a case where congestion is detected by the congestion detecting part and a packet having a MTU equal to or greater than a designated value is received; wherein the MTU decreasing message instructs a sender of the packet having the MTU equal to or greater than the designated value to decrease the MTU.
摘要:
A communication system for realizing a secure communication comprises a selecting device for making a selection between a communication route for a direct communication with a communication partner side and a communication route via a security checking device for checking security of communication, in accordance with a communication partner or an application corresponding to the communication. Also, the communication system comprises a device for marking a communication packet for route selection in order that the selecting device conducts a route selection in accordance with contents of the marking.

A communication path fault restoration system especially applicable to a multiple layered communication network is disclosed, in which spare paths are efficiently used between layers which, at the same time, perform the fault restoration process at high speed. A communication path fault restoration system for a communication network having a multiple layered structure comprises a communication path fault receiver 21 for detecting a faulty path according to the network collection information, a communication path restoration selector 22 for selecting a communication layer and the communication path on the layer for dynamically restoring the fault of the faulty path based on the determination of the information on the faulty path using a predetermined evaluation function, and a communication path restoration processing unit 23 for restoring the fault of the faulty path using the communication path on the selected communication layer.
摘要:
A communication network comprised of communication paths of server layers formed hierarchically by communication paths of client layers, wherein the state of control of the communication paths of a layer being controlled is independently managed in terms of both (i) an administrative state and (ii) a subordinate state indicating influence from communication paths of a server layer, the administrative state of the communication paths of the layer being controlled is changed according to the control for setting and releasing the communication paths, and the subordinate state of the communication paths of a client layer influenced by the change of the administrative state of the communication paths is changed accordingly. At this time, when a subordinate state has already been influenced by a state of control of the communication paths of a server layer, the processing for management is terminated.
摘要:
A detour path determination method wherein each node on a determined detour path stores in advance first and second nodes upstream of each node as well as an identifier(s) of a packet directional path(s); a number of an identifier(s) of a packet directional path(s) required for switching in each link extending from a downstream node one node downstream of each node on the detour path are set for respective nodes on the detour path beginning from the terminal node upstream; the identifier(s) of the packet directional path(s) set as above, and an identifier(s) of a corresponding packet directional path(s) at a start node of the detour path, are sent to a node one node upstream of the above each node; the start node updates a identification data table at the node, by an identifier(s) of a packet directional path(s) set downstream of the start node based on the corresponding identifier(s) of packet directional path(s) at a start node of the detour path, when the start node receives the above identifier(s) (FIG. 1).
摘要:
A packet directional path identifier transfer system contains on the transmission side thereof, a means 2 of converting packet directional path identifier data into bit map information in which an address of each bit corresponds to a packet directional path identifier. The system contains on the reception side thereof, a means 5 for inversely converting the bit map information of the packet directional path identifier data to the packet directional path identifier data. Otherwise, the system further contains on the transmission side thereof, means 8 and 10 for determining the top and bottom values of the packet directional path identifier data to be transmitted, and a means 9 for converting the packet directional path identifier data between the top and bottom values into bit map information, and at the reception side thereof, a means 13 for inversely converting into the initial packet directional path identifier data the bit map information of the packet directional path identifier between the top and bottom values. Further, the top value of the identifier(s) of the newly-set packet directional path(s) determined from the non-used packet directional path identifier(s) in the outgoing packet directional path of the transmission-side node and the number of the newly-set packet directional path identifier(s) are transmitted, and a reference is made to the incoming packet directional path identifier table at the reception-side node to recognize the newly-set packet directional path(s) based on the information received.
