Wide-area data communications utilize regional networks transporting IP-over-Ethernet on fiber. For certain Layer 2 services, a regional implementation of the network makes limited use of spanning tree protocol on a backbone ring. Learning bridge operations in switches on associated access rings involve a short default for an aging timer. For use of Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), the connection of each access ring to the backbone ring uses a pair of routers with dual links therebetween. One of these links is bonded to the backbone (OSPF Area ), whereas the other link is bonded to the Area of the respective access ring. Also, certain routers within each regional network form a mini-autonomous system, for boundary gateway protocol (BGP). The mini-autonomous systems of the regional networks form a confederation. The network utilizes route reflectors in the mini-autonomous systems.

The disclosed technique, apparatuses and devices enable a mobile device to act as a pointing device equipped with integrated search tools, to define a virtual beam within which to search and discover information associated therewith. The user of the mobile device does not have to type, speak or otherwise specify keywords as search criteria. The search criteria can be merely the virtual beam itself. Search results are generated at a remote server system and communicated back to the mobile device, and then presented to its user via graphical, audio and/or other format.

A system for automatically installing and managing devices in a home network implements automated configuration and maintenance of devices and peripherals. A service platform facilitates automated discovery and deployment of home networks and devices that interact with the network. The system includes a monitoring and learning processes for automatic issue detection and alerting. Activity of users and devices within the home are monitored, usage patterns are learned and applied back to the system to improve the digital performance of the home. This system leverages data center, service node, and agent software in the devices to access a knowledge base storing data regarding home entities. A hierarchical index model is used to assign intelligence levels to these entities based on certain parameters. The indices are used to direct alert messages, take an action, and implement a targeted facility for providing communications from network managers or service providers.

An automated service level manager (SLM) provides operations support for wide-area data communication services offered via regional IP-Over Ethernet on fiber networks. The SLM comprises a suite of software components and associated hardware running the software, to communicate with agents throughout the networks, to accumulate various network operations data for reports and alarms and to provide instructions to control network operations. The SLM preferably offers a web server type user interface. This interface enables access by technical personnel of the carrier, for example from a network operations center. This interface also offers access to customers having or seeking service through the network.
