Filed:

Nov 10, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/267955

Inventors:

Jian Lin - Pleasant Hill CA, US
Zheng Yuan - San Jose CA, US

Assignee:

Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709227

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a remote access session may be established between a first computer and a second computer. In response to detecting a device in low-level local communication with the first computer via a first local communication port of the first computer, the low-level local communication at the first local communication port may be intercepted and transmitted to the second computer via the remote access session. Then, the low-level local communication may be injected to a second local communication port of the second computer, wherein the second computer responds to the low-level local communication as though the device were located at the second local communication port of the second computer. For example, the device may be configured to autoconnect with the second computer via the remote access session when the device is connected to the first computer.

Abstract:

In an embodiment, a hosted-on-premises meeting exchange server operates seamlessly with web meeting servers. For example, one computer-implemented method comprises receiving a request from a client computer to join a web meeting; determining whether the client computer is coupled to a local network which includes an on-premises-meeting exchange server; in response to determining that the client computer is coupled to the local network, joining the client computer to the web meeting at the on-premises-meeting exchange server when the on-premises-meeting exchange server has sufficient capacity, and otherwise joining the client computer to the web meeting at an off-premises-meeting exchange server; and in response to determining that the client computer is not coupled to the local network, joining the client computer to the web meeting at the off-premises-meeting exchange server.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709227

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a device is connected to a first computer via a first local communication port of the first computer. If the device is configured to autoconnect with a second computer upon connection of the device to the first computer, a remote access session is established between the first computer and the second computer. Low-level local communication from the device is intercepted at the first local communication port of the first computer. The low-level local communication is transmitted from the first computer to the second computer via the remote access session. The low-level local communication is injected to a second local communication port of the second computer to thereby provide an autoconnection of the device to the second computer.

US Classification:

709204, 709226

Abstract:

In one embodiment, an attendee device detects interest to join an online collaborative computing session, and determines a list of distributed servers for the online collaborative computing session in a computer network. The attendee device may then measure a round trip time (RTT) to each distributed server from the attendee device, such that the attendee device may select a distributed server for the online collaborative computing session based on the RTT. Accordingly, the attendee device many then join the online collaborative computing session through the selected distributed server (e.g., which may cascade communication for the session from a hosting distributed server).
