Methods, systems, and products are provided for tunneling IPv6 packets. Embodiments include receiving, by an origin IPv6 border router from an origin IPv6 host, an IPv6 packet having an IPv6 destination address; receiving, by an origin IPv6 border router from an origin IPv6 host, an IPv4 address for a destination IPv6 border router retrieved from a data structure associating IPv6 destination addresses with IPv4 addresses for destination IPv6 border routers; encapsulating, by the origin IPv6 border router, the IPv6 packet in an IPv4 packet; and sending the encapsulated packet to a destination IPv6 border router at the IPv4 address. In many embodiments, encapsulating, by the origin IPv6 border router, the IPv6 packet in an IPv4 packet is carried out by adding an IPv4 header to the IPv6 packet.

In a method comprising an embodiment of the invention, an original application initially binds to a port, and selects or designates a confidential key, which usefully may be a conventional cookie. The invention also sets a socket option, referred to by way of example, as SO_SECURE_REUSEPORT. The confidential key, together with the port number, is then registered with the operating system of a host associated with the port. In order for another application to subsequently bind to the port, such application must provide the operating system with a key that is identical to the confidential key. In one useful embodiment of the invention, a first application binds a socket to a particular port associated with the host. A specified key is registered with the operating system, and a second application is allowed to bind to the particular port only if the second application can furnish the operating system with a key that matches the specified key.

DHCP lease negotiation is performed in advance of a specified time when the IP address is needed. The client sends a DHCP discover message with an advance lease option indicating a future time when an IP address is needed. The DHCP server reserves an IP address available at the requested time for the requesting client and sends a DHCP acknowledgment of the reservation. Thereafter, the client sends a DHCP discover message requesting the reserved IP address, and the DHCP server assigns it to the client at the scheduled time.

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for multicast tunneling for mobile devices. The method comprises receiving a multicast packet directed to a plurality of mobile nodes, the mobile nodes being associated with a home subnet and identifying if any of the plurality of the mobile nodes are coupled to a subnet other than the home subnet, wherein each of the identified mobile nodes has an associated transmission path through which that mobile node can be reached. The method further provides that in response to determining that at least some of the mobile nodes are coupled to the subnet other than the home subnet, determining which of the identified mobile nodes has a common next hop in their associated transmission path and generating a packet including at least a portion of the multicast packet and including in the packet a list of mobile nodes that have the common next hop. The method further provides for transmitting the generated packet to the common next hop.

A method and apparatus is provided for enabling a telephone caller to generate a brief message for transmission to an intended call recipient, as part of the initial procedure of setting up a phone call between the caller and recipient. The message is sent and displayed or otherwise made available to the recipient before the recipient is required to answer the call. The message could comprise a sequence of alphanumeric characters that conveyed an abbreviated message, or otherwise indicates the purpose to the call to the recipient or provides other information. Respective characters could be transmitted as corresponding sequences of binary tones sent to the call recipient between telephone rings.

A method, system, and computer program product for delivering data, received from a network on a network adapter to a pre-assigned port, to a storage buffer assigned to an application are disclosed. An application designates an application-specific buffer within a local data processing system for buffering data communicated with the application. The local data processing system reports to a network interface of the local data processing system a memory address of the designated application-specific buffer, and the data processing system designates a port on which to receive packets addressed to the memory address. The data processing system then sends a port registration message to the local network interface, enabling the network interface to compare the port number of incoming traffic to a registered port number and route incoming traffic from a remote data processing system directly to the designated application-specific buffers in the event of a match. In one embodiment, the present invention includes receiving in the network interface a packet addressed to the specific port and delivering data from the packet to said application-specific buffer.

A method and system for providing subgroup conversation during a teleconference enables side conversations during a virtual meeting. A passcode is used by parties to join the subgroup conversation, so that privacy of the subgroup is maintained. Alternatively, an administrator may set up subgroups and either join or invite members, who may toggle between the main teleconference and a subgroup teleconference using a standardized user input. The system may be implemented in any telephone network and across telephone networks such as public switched telephone networks (PSTNs), wireless networks, voice over Internet protocol networks and/or private branch exchanges (PBXs).

A method, an apparatus, and computer instructions are provided for automatically activating standby shared Ethernet adapter in a Virtual I/O server of a logically-partitioned data processing system. A standby shared Ethernet adapter (SEA) is set up with a virtual Ethernet adapter that belongs to the same network as the primary shared Ethernet adapter (SEA). The standby SEA monitors periodically for a failure of the primary SEA. If a failure occurs, the standby SEA is activated by connecting a path between its physical adapter and virtual trunk adapter, such that the virtual trunk adapter becomes the primary SEA for the client partitions. Responsive to detecting a recovery of the primary SEA, the primary SEA determines if external communications are received from the standby SEA. If no external communications are received, the primary SEA is reactivated by connecting a path between its physical adapter and virtual trunk adapter.

Retrieving dated content from a website including receiving a URL for dated content with a date field; inserting the current date in the date field; and retrieving the dated content with the URL bearing the current date in its date field. In some embodiments, date field bears an encoded date and inserting the current date in the date field includes replacing the encoded date with the current date. Typical embodiments also include bookmarking the URL, including replacing an encoded date in the date field with a date tag. Some embodiments include prompting the user for a date format. In many embodiments, the date tag includes a default date format. Some embodiments include configuring the browser with a default date format.

Returning to normal power mode a sleeping device operating in low power mode, where the sleeping device is connected to a network, and the sleeping device has a network layer address and a link layer address. Typical embodiments include configuring an administrative device connected to the network with the network layer address of the sleeping device, the link layer address of the sleeping device, and a network layer address of a last router on a route to the sleeping device; instructing the router to store the network layer address of the sleeping device in association with the link layer address of the sleeping device; sending from the administrative device to the sleeping device through the router a unicast message to return to normal power mode.
