A domain name service (DNS) resolver returns Internet protocol (IP) addresses. A connection with an Internet application or device receives domain name resolution requests that originate outside of the Internet. A direct DNS resolver identifies IP addresses without referring to the Internet or using other DNS resolvers. An address store includes a predetermined list of domain names and corresponding IP addresses specified from a point remote to the DNS resolver. The DNS resolver processes the domain name resolutions for the (predetermined list of domain names differently than domain name resolutions for other domain names not on the predetermined list of domain names. At least part of the predetermined list is pushed to a destination upon receiving a resolution request for a domain name in the predetermined list of domain names, the request being of a type other than an authoritative resolution request to be performed by the direct DNS resolver, 1.

Preparing a plurality of computer nodes to boot in a multidimensional fabric network is provided. The method includes a fabric processor (FP) generating a plurality of DHCP discovery packets using a baseboard management controller (BMC) MAC address, and placing them into the multi-host switch. A dedicated connection directly connects the BMC and the FP. All ports of the multi-host switch broadcast DHCP discovery packets into the fabric network. The BMC, FP, and switch are all within the node. A designated exit node inside the fabric connects to a provisioning node not part of the fabric. The exit node relays DHCP traffic from the fabric. A location-based IP address uniquely identifies the nodes' physical location in the fabric. The IP address is calculated based on inventory records describing physical location information about the nodes. The FP calculates a host MAC address using its IP address and configures it onto the switch. 1.

A system that enables end-user devices that operate within different enterprise networks to exchange data with one another. In particular, the disclosed system uses unique IP addresses that are dedicated solely to supporting a predefined communication service between enterprise computer networks, in order to identify and route each data packet according to the communications service. As part of the communications service, the data packets are transmitted, for example, from a first local service provider network hosting a first enterprise network, through a participating backbone service provider network on the public Internet and based on deterministic routing, and to a second local service provider network hosting a second enterprise network. In handling the data packets in this way, the disclosed system creates an Internet wide-area-network (WAN): the data packets are transmitted over the Internet and conceivably over a large geographic distance between enterprise networks.

A user equipment (UE) may perform authentication procedures using an alternative identity (e.g., a privacy mobile subscriber identity (PMSI)) instead of an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) to protect the privacy of the user. If the UE does not have a PMSI, it may include a request for a PMSI initialization in an attach request. In some cases, the PMSI may be used once, and a new PMSI may be generated for the next attachment procedure. In some cases, a universal subscriber identity module (USIM) of the UE may not support storage of a PMSI. So a privacy module of the UE may communicate with the USIM according to the USIM's capabilities and may maintain a PMSI separately for communication with the network. 1. A method for wireless communication at a device , comprising:transmitting an attach request comprising an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) and an initialization request for an additional mobile subscriber identity;receiving an authentication request in response to the attach request based at least in part on the initialization request for the additional mobile subscriber identity, wherein the authentication request comprises the additional mobile subscriber identity;identifying one or more encryption keys for initialization based at least in part on receiving the authentication request; andtransmitting an acknowledgement for the additional mobile subscriber identity in response to the authentication request.2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:identifying an absence of the additional mobile subscriber identity, wherein the attach request is transmitted based at least in part on the absence of the additional mobile subscriber identity.3.

A terminal network apparatus performs wireless communication with a user terminal apparatus. The terminal network apparatus receives a registration request which is transmitted from the user terminal apparatus, and assigns a node name to the user terminal apparatus. The terminal network apparatus receives a reregistration request from a user terminal apparatus which has moved from a wireless service area of another terminal network apparatus, and assigns a new node name to the user terminal apparatus. The terminal network apparatus transmits a notification that includes an old node name and the new node name to the terminal network apparatus that had assigned the old node name. When the terminal network apparatus receives the notification, the terminal network apparatus generates an entry, in which the old node name and the new node name are correlated, in a node name pair table.

Overhead of sending data from one application to another by doing input and output processing can be costly. The present invention provides a method of transmitting data with a low overhead between applications in a multi-tenant runtime environment. The multi-tenant runtime detects a connection between tenants, and then performs low-overhead data transmission mechanisms by cloning data from one tenant space to another tenant space, while keeping the data isolated for two tenants.

Disclosed methods for network modernization include obtaining a list of end-to-end circuits carried in a circuit-switched network, calculating, for each circuit, an early retirement credit (ERC) score and a circuit load factor (CLF) score, selecting, dependent on the ERC and CLF scores, a circuit to migrate to a new network, adding the selected circuit to a circuit migration sequence, and removing the circuit from the list. The ERC score represents the number of circuit-switching units on which no circuits would be carried and that would remain in the network following its removal. The CLF score represents an average number of circuits that would be carried on each circuit-switching unit currently traversed by the circuit following its removal. When two circuits have the highest ERC score, the circuit with the lowest CLF score is selected for migration. The method is repeated until the list is empty. 1.

A system may include a platform for an application to support processing flows for a service provider, such as ordering, sales, support, service delivery, and related process flows. The system may provide a limited set of application programming interfaces (APIs) that map to an application's user-experience page flows. The APIs may always appear to the application that the interaction process completed successfully—even if human intervention is required—to allow the application to complete the transaction. The system may have the ability to recognize the same user, and leverage that user's behavior across interactions with multiple sales channels. The system may thus provide, in one aspect, an enhanced user experience for ordering and maintaining complex service and equipment offerings.
