US Patent:
6606650, Aug 12, 2003
Filed:
Aug 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/385389
Inventors:
Earnest E. Hughes - San Antonio TX

Lewis T. Donzis - San Antonio TX
Assignee:
Nortel Networks Limited - St. Laurent
International Classification:
G06F 15167
US Classification:
709213, 709238, 709250
Abstract:
A technique for providing a device referred to as a transparent bump between a local area network and a router. The device is inserted with minimal intrusion to the devices on the LAN to provide a certain operation, such as web caching. The device initializes at start-up in the promiscuous mode to learn the MAC address of the router and subsequently accepts data packets destined to the router for internal processing. Accesses to a web page are checked in the device to determine if cached data is present, so that redundant accesses are reduced. The device initializes and performs its intended function transparently to a user on the local area network.

Internet Connection User Communications System

US Patent:
2012017, Jul 5, 2012
Filed:
Jan 2, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/342144
Inventors:
Henry M. Donzis - San Antonio TX, US
Lewis T. Donzis - San Antonio TX, US
Rodney D. Frey - San Antonio TX, US
John A. Murphy - San Antonio TX, US
Jonathan E. Schmidt - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
G06F 15/173
US Classification:
709224
Abstract:
A method for communicating in real-time to users of a provider of Internet access service, without requiring any installation or set-up by the user, that utilizes the unique identification information automatically provided by the user during communications for identifying the user to provide a fixed identifier which is then communicated to a redirecting device. Messages may then be selectively transmitted to the user. The system is normally transparent to the user, with no modification of its content along the path. Content then may be modified or replaced along the path to the user. For the purposes of establishing a reliable delivery of bulletin messages from providers to their users, the system forces the delivery of specially-composed World Wide Web browser pages to the user, although it is not limited to that type of data. These may be displayed permanently, temporarily, or in separate pop-up browser windows, according to policies set by the provider irrespective of the user's intended browsing destination.

System And Method For Providing Redirections

US Patent:
2010016, Jun 24, 2010
Filed:
Dec 22, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/340863
Inventors:
Lewis T. Donzis - San Antonio TX, US
Henry M. Donzis - San Antonio TX, US
Peter W. Baron - San Antonio TX, US
John A. Murphy - San Antonio TX, US
Jonathan E. Schmidt - San Antonio TX, US
Assignee:
PERFTECH, INC. - San Antonio TX
International Classification:
G06F 15/16, G06F 15/173, G06F 7/06, G06F 17/30
US Classification:
709205, 709242, 709224, 707E17014
Abstract:
A redirection of a URL page request may be performed by monitoring an upstream path from a subscriber to the internet through an ISP. When a URL page request is detected from a subscriber for whom a redirection is required, a redirection device generates a single TCP packet response that mimics a response from the intended destination server. The single TCP packet includes a set FIN bit that closes any active session with the destination server to prevent the subscriber from accepting packets from the destination server.

Modifying Message Size Indications In Communications Over Data Networks

US Patent:
6973097, Dec 6, 2005
Filed:
Sep 22, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/668786
Inventors:
Lewis T. Donzis - San Antonio TX, US
Earnest E. Hughes - San Antonio TX, US
Assignee:
Nortel Networks Limited - St. Laurent
International Classification:
H04J003/16
US Classification:
370470, 37039552
Abstract:
A communications system includes a data network that is coupled to an access system, which enables access to the data network by a client system. The client system issues requests through a router and the access system, with the requests specifying a server system as the destination. The server system sends response messages back to the client system through the data network and the router. The router is capable of modifying an indication of the maximum size of at least a portion of a message. This ensures that response messages communicated by the server system are not too large that the access system is unable to handle the response messages.
