Abstract
A device for a virtual phone in a virtual network may be provided. A data packet may be received by the device, the device being in a personal-area-network (PAN) with a peer, the data packet containing information defining a characteristic of a software application. The data packet may be profiled, the data packet comprising information about the software application. An SLA table stored on the device may be seeded with the information in the data packet. A routing table may be populated with an address for forwarding the information to the peer.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a device for a disaggregated phone, the device comprising a peer, the peer being in a personal area network (PAN), the device comprising a memory storage and a processing unit disposed in a station, the processing unit in data communication with the memory storage, wherein:
- the memory storage stores a service-level agreement (SLA) table and a routing table;
- and
- the processing unit is operative to receive a data packet containing information defining a characteristic of a software application, profile the data packet, seed the SLA table with the information in the data packet, and populate a routing table with an address for forwarding the information to another device across which application traffic will pass in the PAN.
A method comprising:
- receiving a data packet by a device, the device being in a personal-area-network (PAN), the device comprising a peer, the data packet containing information defining a characteristic of a software application;
- processing the data packet, the data packet comprising information about the software application;
- seeding an SLA table stored on the device with the information in the data packet;
- and
- populating a routing table with an address for forwarding the information to the peer.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a set of intransient instructions which when executed perform a method executed by the set of instructions comprising:
- receiving a data packet by a device, the device being in a personal-area-network (PAN) with a peer, the data packet containing information defining a characteristic of a software application;
- processing the data packet, the data packet comprising information about the software application;
- seeding an SLA table stored on the device with the information in the data packet;
- and
- populating a routing table with an address for forwarding the information to the peer.
