Methods and devices for processing packets are provided. The processing device may include an input interface for receiving data units containing header information of respective packets; a first module configurable to perform packet filtering based on the received data units; a second module configurable to perform traffic analysis based on the received data units; a third module configurable to perform load balancing based on the received data units; and a fourth module configurable to perform route lookups based on the received data units.

Systems and methods for processing packets

Systems, methods, and software for monitoring and controlling a security system for a structure are provided herein. An exemplary method may include receiving sensor data from at least one first peripheral, the sensor data associated with at least one of activity inside and activity outside of a structure; determining a critical event based in part on the sensor data; creating an alert based in part on the critical event; getting user preferences associated with at least one of a user and a base unit; determining a response based in part on the alert and user preferences; and activating at least one of a second peripheral and a service based in part on the response.

Filtering and route lookup in a switching device

A portable, interactive display device is disclosed. The device presents to a user the graphical interface of a host computer. The host is separate from the display device and sits in a fixed location. The invention allows a user to carry with him the user interface capability of the host, limited only by the capabilities of a wireless communications channel to the host. The host provides processing, storage, and access to its own peripheral devices. The display device need only provide the amount of processing necessary to communicate with the host, to run the client side of the hosting software, and to provide security functions. The host provides a docking station that accommodates the display device. When in the docking station, the display device continues to operate but communicates with the host through the docking station rather than through the wireless channel. This allows for a higher quality video connection.

Methods and systems for a portable, interactive display device for use with a computer

A system and method for providing IP services. A packet is received at a line interface/network module and forwarded to a virtual routing engine The virtual routing engine determines if the packet requires processing by a virtual services engine. If the packet requires processing by the virtual services engine, the packet is routed to the virtual services engine for processing.

Service processing switch

A routing apparatus includes a plurality of routing units and function units. The routing unit receives a packet from each port, and uses header information contained in the packet to judge whether the packet should be transmitted to the function unit. In the case where the packet should be transmitted to the function unit, the routing unit adds a first identifier to the packet and transmits it to a transmission unit. The function unit receives the packet containing the first identifier from the transmission unit, and executes a predetermined processing for the packet. The function unit adds a second identifier to the packet and transmits it to the transmission unit.

Packet routing apparatus and a method of routing a packet

A packet routing apparatus has a plurality of routing units, connected by a first connecting mechanism. The plurality of routing units comprise a first routing unit, connected to at least one port, and a second routing unit, connected to an extended function processor. The first routing unit transmits a packet, received from the port, to another first routing unit and/or a second routing unit. The second routing unit transmits the packet, received from the first connecting mechanism, to the extended function processor.

A read cache and a write cache are made up of two kinds of nonvolatile memories whose characteristics are different. For example, nonvolatile memory whose write endurance is high is assigned to the write cache, nonvolatile memory whose write endurance is low is assigned to the read cache, and the management tables of data in these caches are stored in the nonvolatile memory whose write endurance is high. Alternatively, nonvolatile memory that has a fast write speed but has a slow read speed is adopted for the write cache and nonvolatile memory that has a fast read speed but has a slow write speed is adopted for the read cache.

A labor of disconnecting many cables is omitted even when carrying a file basestation with an external storage loaded together with a main body. An information processing unit comprises: a main body having a CPU, a keyboard and a display unit; a file basestation with an external storage, such as an FD•D or a CD-ROM•D, loaded; and a portreplicator with many connectors loaded. Removal of the main body alone from the portreplicator or removal of the main body and the file basestation can omit the labor of disconnecting many cables connected to the portreplicator.

Information processing unit and information processing related units

Embodiments of the present invention provide a simplified authentication transaction for reconnecting a storage device to a host apparatus that has completed authentication in the past. According to one embodiment, an authentication log is recorded in the host. Plural units of this log information are recorded in the storage device. At the time of transferring a content decryption key and usage rules between the host and the storage device, the decryption key and usage rules are recorded into the host as a log for the transfer. The used authentication log is recorded into the storage device as RAPDI. If RAPDI indicates the authentication log in the simplified authentication transaction, recovery transaction is permitted. The host device deletes/invalidates or holds the log for the transfer in accordance with non-permission/permission. In the case of permission, the key and usage rules are recovered by using a log for the transfer prior to the simplified authentication transaction.
