Appl. No.:

12/262624

International Classification:

H04L 12/56

US Classification:

370232, 370235

Abstract:

The present application relates to an implementation of a reliable transport protocol that provides receiver-based congestion control within a computing system. An exemplary system includes a first network device and a second network device within a network. During a handshake procedure, a transmission rate at which data can be sent as well as an acceptable corruptive loss rate for a data path between the first network device and the second network device in the network is determined. The second network device then receives data sent from the first network device at the transmission rate. When the acceptable corruptive loss rate for received data has been exceeded, the second network device determines an amount by which to reduce the transmission rate, and then sends a notification to the first network device indicating the amount by which to reduce the transmission rate for subsequently transmitted data.

International Classification:

G06F 21/00

US Classification:

726 23

Abstract:

A distributed file integrity checking system is described. The described peer integrity checking system (PICS) may negate an attack by storing a properties database amongst nodes of a peer-to-peer network of hosts, some or all of which co-operate to protect and watch over each other.

International Classification:

H04L 12/56

US Classification:

370401

Abstract:

A device-implemented network with domains each having nodes, the nodes of each of the domains sharing network information with one another according to an intra-domain communication policy. An inter-domain protocol is configured to control communication between at least one of the nodes of one of the domains and at least one of the nodes of a different one of the domains. A broker is configured to be communicatively coupled to the nodes and configured to control communication according to the inter-domain protocol and to which all of the nodes of each of the plurality of domains are configured to send the network information.

H04W 40/00
H04L 12/707

Abstract:

A method of routing an Internet Protocol (IP) packet from a routing device is provided. The method includes receiving a first IP packet having a first IP header and a first IP data field, the first IP packet having a final destination corresponding to a destination device communicatively coupled to the routing device via a network route including at least two hops between the routing device and the final destination. A second IP packet having a second IP header and a second IP data field is generated. The second IP data field is a copy of the first IP data field, and a destination IP address field in the second IP header includes an IP address of a next hop on the network route. The second IP packet does not include an IP address of the final destination in the second IP header.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

US Classification:

713153

Abstract:

This disclosure is directed to techniques for providing communication between devices in different networks wherein the communication must first pass through an encryption mechanism and the devices do not have the stand-alone capability to encrypt or decrypt the communication. According to these techniques, an adapter may determine certain fields in a data packet that remain unencrypted when the data packet passes through the encryption mechanism. The adapter may then process those fields in such a way that, when the data packets are received by a second adapter, the second adapter may read those fields and obtain information.
