Abstract:

A Totally Stubby Edge (TSE) participates in a cloud under the condition that the TSE may select paths for frames that the TSE introduces to the cloud, but may not transit frames between nodes in the cloud. The edge submits, to an administrator of the cloud, a request to join the cloud. If the administrator allows the request, then the edge is given access to the address tables that define the structure of the cloud, and may insert itself into the structure. The edge may use the address tables to select paths for frames that the edge introduces to the cloud. Normally path decisions are made by devices that the administrator trusts and controls. However, since the TSE selects paths for its own frames but does not transit frames between other nodes in the cloud, the TSE may select paths even if it is untrusted by the administrator.

US Classification:

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer media for loading initial maximum transmission unit (MTU) information and determining a destination host PMTU are provided. PMTU is the maximum data unit size that can be transmitted from a source host to a destination host because of a limiting component located somewhere in the path. Initial MTU values are determined from local and network sources, including a central repository, and loaded. A PMTU is then determined for a path between a source host and destination host by selecting an MTU value from the available values. If no MTU values are available for a destination host, a default value is used.

Inventors:

Jeffrey Allen Jensen - Marysville WA, US

International Classification:

E04H 4/08

Abstract:

A hot tub cover consists of an impermeable exterior shell and at least one multilayered insulative and structural core. Each multilayered insulative and structural core may further have multiple core layers layered adjacent to each other in various configurations, providing superior protection from heat losses from within the hot tub as well as structural strength and durability.
