20090190470 | TRAFFIC SHAPING METHOD AND DEVICE - There are provided a distribution unit for classifying traffics into group/user/class units, a transmission point-in-time processing unit for calculating available frame rate from peak-frame-rate/minimum-frame-rate/weight set for each user, and managing a transmission schedule point-in-time, a scheduling control unit for controlling a scheduling in accordance with the transmission schedule point-in-time, a user/group/line's each peak-frame-rate control unit for performing a shaping of the traffics at each peak frame rate of the user/group/line, and a priority-control processing unit for carrying out an inter-groups priority control. | 07-30-2009 |
20090316714 | PACKET RELAY APPARATUS - In a packet relay apparatus equipped with a hierarchical bandwidth control function, a queuing unit of a bandwidth controller for controlling a bandwidth of a packet to be transmitted recognizes user information for identifying a user from VLAN ID of a received Tag-VLAN packet, acquires queue information representative of a queue position by referring to a priority mapping table by using a user priority order in the packet, and queues the packet to the queue identified by the user information and queue information. Bandwidth control can therefore be performed without searching a QoS information management table. | 12-24-2009 |
20100085980 | RECEIVER DEVICE, TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, AND PACKET TRANSMISSION METHOD - In a transmission system of transferring a packet input from a first device to a second device via a network, a receiver device comprises a storage module configured to successively accumulate received packets, which are transferred over a multiple transmission paths, in correlation to each of the multiple transmission paths, a packet selector configured to sequentially perform a packet selection process with respect to each of the received packets accumulated in the storage module, where after elapse of a predetermined time period since a receipt time of a first packet received by the receiver device, the packet selection process respectively reads out one packet for each of the multiple transmission paths among the received identical packets, which are accumulated in correlation to each of the multiple transmission paths, and selects one packet with higher reliability out of the read-out packets, and an output module configured to output the packet selected by the packet selector to the second device. | 04-08-2010 |
20100189129 | BANDWIDTH CONTROL APPARATUS - A bandwidth calculation section calculates a usable bandwidth from a communication amount of each user or a session connection time stored in a statistic management memory and minimum bandwidth information and maximum bandwidth information recorded in a bandwidth setting memory. The bandwidth calculation section allocates a large usable bandwidth to a user with a small communication amount or a short session connection time. A transmission control section performs transmission scheduling of packet information stored in a packet buffer based on a transmission scheduled time calculated from the usable bandwidth stored in a transmission scheduled time memory. | 07-29-2010 |
20110063978 | TRAFFIC SHAPING METHOD AND DEVICE - A packet relay device comprises a distribution processing unit classifying traffics into groups and users based on header information of packets received; a calculation unit calculating available frame rate of each user from peak frame rate, minimum frame rate, and weight information set for each user; a scheduling control unit updating a transmission schedule point-in-time calculated based on the available frame rate of each user, and judging which packet should be transmitted in accordance with the transmission schedule point-in-time updated; and a shaping unit updating a transmission schedule point-in-time calculated based on the peak frame rate of each user, and performing a shaping of packets at the peak frame rate on each user basis in accordance with the transmission schedule point-in-time updated; and a priority-control processing unit performing a strict priority control over transmission of packets of each group in correspondence with degree of priority of each group. | 03-17-2011 |
20110176554 | PACKET RELAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF RELAYING PACKET - The packet relay apparatus is provided. The packet relay apparatus includes a receiver that receives a packet; and a determiner that determines to drop the received packet without storing the received packet into a queue among the multi-stage queue. The determiner determines to drop the received packet at a latter stage, based on former-stage queue information representing a state of a queue at any former stage which the received packet belongs to and latter-stage queue information representing a state of a queue at the latter stage which the received packet belongs to. | 07-21-2011 |
20120033550 | PACKET RELAY DEVICE AND CONGESTION CONTROL METHOD - A packet relay device is equipped with a buffer memory including a plurality of queues for temporarily storing packets, and a storage unit for storing the first queue lengths indicating the respective queue length of each of the queues and a second queue length indicating a value according to a total of the plurality of first queue lengths. When the packet relay device receives packets, it discerns the queue to which the received packet belongs from among the plurality of queues, and temporarily stores the packet in relation to the discerned queue within the buffer memory. Then, the first queue length and the second queue length are updated, and a determination is made of whether or not to send a congestion notification to the packet sending source according to the first queue length corresponding to the discerned queue, and to the second queue length. | 02-09-2012 |
20120155254 | PACKET RELAY APPARATUS - A packet relay apparatus of the type that can virtually use in the interlocking arrangement a plurality of apparatuses includes a link optimization adjustment part and a packet analyzing unit, automatically judges the mode of flow of communication and traffic and optimizes the line that is mainly operated, to manage the traffic flowing through a control port and make up for band insufficiency of the control port. | 06-21-2012 |
