    摘要: A method, apparatus, and machine readable storage medium is disclosed for handling Network-Request-Support (NRS) and Bearer Control Mode (BCM) at a Policy and Charging Rules Node (PCRN) and a Evolved Packet Core (EPC) gateway node. Embodiments maintain corresponding buffers for NRS values at the PCRN and the gateway and maintain synchronization between them. A gateway sends a credit control request (CCR) message to a PCRN and updates a local NRS buffer at the gateway when a successful credit control acknowledgement (CCA) response is received from the PCRN. Similarly, the PCRN updates a local NRS buffer at the PCRN when a successful credit control acknowledgement (CCA) response is sent to the gateway.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally discloses improvements in computer performance for supporting a multipath transport throughput capability that is configured to improve throughout of a multipath transport connection of a multipath transport protocol. The multipath transport throughput capability is configured to improve the throughput of the multipath transport connection by improving delivery of acknowledgment packets acknowledging successful delivery of data packets sent from a data transmitting side to a data receiving side. The multipath transport throughput capability may be configured to improve the delivery of acknowledgment packets from the data receiving side to the data transmitting side by, for a data packet that is successfully received at the data receiving side from the data transmitting side, sending multiple acknowledgment packets from the data receiving side to the data transmitting side where the multiple acknowledgment packets associated with the received data packet may be sent over multiple transport connections of the multipath transport connection.

    摘要: Various embodiments include a method for managing a group of devices in communication with each other and sharing a set of keys. The method may include opening a secure channel with each of two devices from the group; providing the set of keys to the two devices from the group, wherein the set of keys include an encryption and an authentication key; indicating to the two devices to begin using the set of keys; and performing an audit process including verifying that nodes within a key group have the same copy of encryption and authentication keys. Embodiments of the method may include synchronization, active/standby redundancy and the ability to manage the network when some nodes perform the data encryption and some node do not, do, or when both encrypted and non-encrypted tunnels and services can work together.

    摘要: A method and system are provided for reducing bandwidth usage in TDM CES systems. When a transmitting router receives a signal that the status of the access circuit is other than “normal”, and that therefore any TDM data arriving over the access circuit is not valid, the transmitting router signals a receiving router at the far end of a TDM Pseudowire that no packets for the TDM Pseudowire will be sent, and does not send any packets over the TDM Pseudowire, not even packets with empty payloads. When the receiving router receives such a signal, it starts to generate its own packets for placing in its jitter buffer. Valid packets already within the jitter buffer are played out to the access port, but once this runs out dummy packets placed in the jitter buffer by the router are played out. In this way, the jitter buffer maintains its fill level even when no packets are being sent across the TDM Pseudowire. Only when the transmitting router receives notification that the status of its access circuit has returned to normal does the transmitting router signal the receiving router that status has returned to normal, and begins sending packets once again. The method and system thereby reduce the bandwidth usage in TDM CES systems by refraining from needlessly sending meaningless packets over the TDM-Pseudowire.
