The present disclosure generally relates to the support of optical connection setup. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a technique of supporting provision of a connection via a data communication network of an optical network between packet network islands. A method embodiment comprises establishing a Border Gateway Protocol-Link State, BGP-LS, connection via the DCN between a first edge node of the first packet network island and a BGP-LS node in the optical network.

In some examples, a software-defined network (SDN) controller determines a link aggregation (LAG) configuration for a node in the SDN that is controlled by the SDN controller. The LAG configuration is based on hardware capability information and dynamic network traffic information of the SDN. The SDN controller can further instruct the node to forward traffic in accordance with the LAG configuration.

A method of processing one or more packets includes receiving, at a first processing unit, a first packet including first information bits. The first information bits indicate a first control parameter. The method also includes determining whether the first control parameter will be utilized to process the first packet in at least a second processing unit and, at least partially in response to determining that the first control parameter will not be utilized to process the first packet in at least the second processing unit, replacing one or more bits of the first information bits in the first packet with second information bits. The second information bits indicate a second control parameter. The method also includes providing the first packet including the second information bits to the second processing unit.

An apparatus can include an optical transceiver having a body with a first end at which a circuitry interface is located to facilitate transfer of data between a network appliance and the optical transceiver. The apparatus further includes a four-cable interface at a second end of the body. The four-cable interface releasably receives four independently releasable connectors for transfer of optical signals between the optical transceiver and respective ferrules of the four independently releasable connectors. In some examples, a carrier may be provided that is releasably connected with the four-cable interface and that includes four sockets for respectively independently receiving the four independently receivable connectors so as to facilitate collective insertion and removal of the four independently releasable connectors relative to the four-cable interface.

A method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer readable storage medium for communication between private networks are provided. An embodiment of the method may include: receiving a communication request sent by a first sub-instance provided in a first private network, the first sub-instance being created based on that the first private network initiates a network registration request to a master instance; determining a second private network as a destination based on the communication request; and sending the communication request to the second private network through a second sub-instance provided in the second private network, the second sub-instance being created based on that the second private network initiates a network registration request to the master instance, wherein the first private network, the second private network, and a cloud enterprise network provided with the master instance forms a star topology centered on the cloud enterprise network.

A wireless communication device (alternatively, device, WDEV, etc.) includes a processing circuitry configured to support communications with other WDEV(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. In some examples, the device includes a communication interface and a processing circuitry, among other possible circuitries, components, elements, etc. to support communications with other WDEV(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. A WDEV generates an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) frame that includes OFDMA symbol(s) that include a set of pilots based on an OFDMA sub-carrier plan. The WDEV transmits the OFDMA frame to other WDEV(s) for use by the other WDEV(s) to perform estimation of communication pathway(s) between the WDEV and the other WDEV(s) using the set of pilots. The OFDMA sub-carrier plan includes multiple OFDMA sub-carrier sub-plans of different sized RUs including pilots.

In a network service provider environment, the service provider infrastructure is protected by separating internet routing from the default context and placing it within a virtual private network context. Packets received from the public internet are encapsulated for transit through the service provider infrastructure based on the packet source being the public internet. MPLS VPN technology may be used in the encapsulation technique. The architecture removes the public part of the underlay network and tunnels it through a new overlay. The result is that internet traffic is contained in a separate routing domain, hiding the network infrastructure from that untrusted service traffic that transits the network.

A physical pipeline network is decomposed into multiple subnetworks. The subnetworks include upstream subnetworks and at least one downstream subnetwork. A network solver is executed on the upstream subnetworks in parallel to obtain a set of boundary conditions and a set of control device settings. The set of boundary conditions and a set of control device settings are then used to execute the network solver on the downstream subnetwork and obtain a result having another set of control device settings. The network solver may repeat executions until convergence is achieved. When convergence is achieved, the result is presented.
