摘要： One embodiment of an inventive networking environment includes clients called sending clients because they send network content through a network, and clients called receiving clients because they receive the network content from the sending clients through the network. Both sending clients and receiving clients are “clients” in that they rely on a management server to orchestrate the secure transfer of information from sending clients to receiving clients.

摘要： A data processing system for regulating access to a communication network is disclosed herein. The data processing system employs a component that can be implemented in hardware logic or software. The component regulates access to the priority queue or transmit channel that is attached to the shared medium local area network section. All access to the priority queue or transmit channel must pass through this component, thus subjecting all communication transactions to rejection or tracking by the component. The component allocates a frame size based on the information to be transmitted and the priority to assure the transmission will be completed in line with the quality of service required. The component monitors the rate and size of messages to assure that an application's actual throughput does not exceed its negotiated throughput. The component, moreover, is capable of operating in correction mode where throughput and frame size violations are prevented and reported. Alternatively, the component operates in detection mode where violations are recorded and reported to an application.

摘要： A method of communicating messages across a network is provided. A router receives an RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol) PATH message from a sending host that is directed to a receiving host. Upon identifying the protocol of the incoming PATH message as RSVP, the router accesses a proxy look-up table to identify a proxy host acting on behalf of the receiving host. The router then adds a proxy header to the PATH message and redirects the PATH message to the proxy host by sending the message to a predetermined port. The proxy host receives the PATH message and, in response, sends a resource reservation request (RESV) message onto the network with a proxy header and directed to the predetermined port. The router receives the RESV message, strips off the proxy header, and forwards the RESV message to the sending host as if the message had originated from the receiving host. A proxy host can also send PATH messages on behalf of the sending host. In that case, the proxy host adds a proxy header to the PATH message and directs the PATH message to the predetermined port. The router receives the PATH message, strips off the proxy header, and sends the PATH message to the receiving host as if the PATH message had originated form the sending host. The router also receives RESV messages from the receiving host or its proxy and redirects them to the proxy for the sending host.

摘要： A system and method is provided to compliment use of priority for reserved traffic in multimedia computerized data communication networks, to insure that the opportunity for transmitting large, unreserved data frames is constrained. If frames transmitted when the server releases a token tend to be small, then the server will capture a larger portion of the bandwidth. Thus, a short bandwidth reservation acknowledgement is transmitted onto the ring by the client for selected frames which it receives. This is not addressed to any station on the ring. Rather it is simply transmitted at a non-zero priority less than the server's priority. The criteria which is employed by the client for such acknowledgement is that the sender will send a bandwidth reservation acknowledgement only when the IEEE 802.5 AC field is set, but will do so for a fixed amount of time or for a fixed number of received frames. This criteria provides an optimization reducing overall ring utilization, since the bandwidth reservation acknowledgement is only sent when the ring is congested. A communication network is disclosed which transmits an unsolicited acknowledgement at non-zero priority for each non-zero priority frame received, such system thereby being independent of the communication protocol employed by the network station.

摘要翻译： 提供了一种系统和方法，以补充在多媒体计算机化数据通信网络中对预留业务的优先级的使用，以确保发送大的，未预留的数据帧的机会受到约束。 如果在服务器释放令牌时发送的帧趋向于较小，则服务器将捕获更大部分的带宽。 因此，短带宽预留确认由客户端向其接收的所选帧传送到环上。 这不是针对环上的任何电台。 而是简单地以比服务器优先级低的优先级发送。 客户端对这种确认采用的标准是发送方仅在设置IEEE 802.5 AC字段时才发送带宽预留确认，但是将在固定的时间量或固定数量的接收帧之间发送带宽预留确认。 该标准提供了降低总体环使用率的优化，因为仅当环路拥塞时才发送带宽预留确认。 公开了一种通信网络，其对于接收的每个非零优先级帧以非零优先级发送非请求确认，因此该系统独立于网络站采用的通信协议。
