US Classification:
70223, 709203, 709217, 709224, 370352, 370389, 370401
Abstract:
A network element having centralized TCP termination with multi-service chaining is described herein. According to one embodiment, a network element includes a switch fabric, a first service module coupled to the switch fabric, and a second and a third service modules coupled to the first service module over the switch fabric. In response to packets of a network transaction received from a client over a first network for access a server of a data center having multiple servers over a second network, the first service module is configured to terminate a TCP connection of the packets. The TCP terminated packets are transmitted to the second and third service modules over the switch fabric. The second and third service modules are configured to perform different application network services on the TCP terminated packets without having to perform a TCP process again. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709227
Abstract:
A highly scalable application layer service appliance is described herein. According to one embodiment, a network element includes a plurality of application service modules (ASMs), each providing one or more application services to network traffic, including layer 5-7 services, a lossless data transport fabric (LDTF), a network service module (NSM) coupled to each of the ASMs over the LDTF. In response to a packet of a network transaction received from a client over for accessing a server of a datacenter, the NSM is configured to perform layer 2-5 processes on the packet, generating a data stream. The NSM is configured to route the data stream to at least two ASMs over the LDTF to allow the ASMs to perform layer 5-7 services on the packet. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Layers 4-7 Service Gateway For Converged Datacenter Fabric

View page
US Patent:
8180901, May 15, 2012
Filed:
Apr 11, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/101867
Inventors:
Nagaraj Bagepalli - San Jose CA, US
Prashant Gandhi - San Jose CA, US
Abhijit Patra - San Jose CA, US
Kirti Prabhu - San Jose CA, US
Anant Thakar - Cupertino CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709227
Abstract:
Layer 4 gateway for a converged datacenter fabric is described herein. According to one embodiment, a packet of a network transaction is received from a client over a first network for accessing a server of a datacenter having a plurality of servers over a second network. One or more network services are performed on the packet including terminating a TCP (transport control protocol) connection associated with the network transaction and generating a data stream. The data stream without TCP information is routed to the server via a converged I/O interface over the second network if the second network is a converged fabric network. The data stream with TCP information is routed via a TCP connection to the server if the second network is an Ethernet. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Layer-4 Transparent Secure Transport Protocol For End-To-End Application Protection

US Patent:
8295306, Oct 23, 2012
Filed:
Apr 11, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/101862
Inventors:
Nagaraj Bagepalli - San Jose CA, US
Prashant Gandhi - San Jose CA, US
Abhijit Patra - San Jose CA, US
Kirti Prabhu - San Jose CA, US
Anant Thakar - Cupertino CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technologies, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04J 3/16
US Classification:
370469
Abstract:
Techniques for providing layer 4 transparent secure transport for end-to-end application protection are described herein. According to one embodiment, a packet of a network transaction is received from a client over a first network, where the packet is destined to a server of a data center having a plurality of servers over a second network. The packet includes a payload encrypted without encrypting information needed for a layer 4 of OSI (open system interconnection) layers of network processes. The layer 4 process is performed on the packet without having to decrypting the payload to determine whether the packet is eligible to access the destined server over the second network based on the unencrypted layer 4 information. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
