Abstract
Apparatus and systems, as well as methods and articles, may operate to store a data field in a data file, wherein the data field is associated with one or more data packets received at a node on a first network, and to transfer the data file between the node on the first network and a node on a second network. The data file may be transferred across a wired communications link utilizing a file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack.
Claims23
A method, including:
- receiving at least one data packet from a first network at a first device coupled as a network node on the first network;
- decoding the at least one data packet to isolate a data field;
- creating a data file comprising the data field in a selected storage location on the first device;
- monitoring the selected storage location to detect that the data file has been created;
- transferring the data file from the first device to a second device comprising a node on a second network, across a wired communications link coupling the first device to the second device, utilizing an error-corrected file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack;
- and
- storing the data file on the second device.
A method, including:
- storing in a data file a data field associated with at least one data packet received at a node on a first network;
- and
- transferring the data file between the node on the first network and a node on a second network across a wired communications link utilizing a file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack.
An article including a machine-accessible medium having associated information, wherein the information, when accessed, results in a machine performing:
- storing in a data file a data field associated with at least one data packet received at a node on a first network;
- and
- transferring the data file between the node on the first network and a node on a second network across a wired communications link utilizing a file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack.
An apparatus, including:
- a sender module to transfer a stored data file, including a data field associated with at least one data packet received at a node on a first network, between the node on the first network and a node on a second network utilizing a file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack;
- a filter coupled to the sender module to isolate the data field from at least one protocol element associated with the at least one data packet;
- and
- a receiver module coupled to the sender module to receive the data file.
A system, including:
- a sender module to transfer a stored data file, including a data field associated with at least one data packet received at a node on a first network, between the node on the first network and a node on a second network utilizing a file transfer protocol not associated with a network protocol stack;
- a filter coupled to the sender module to isolate the data field from at least one protocol element associated with the at least one data packet;
- a receiver module to receive the stored data file;
- and
- a wired communications link to couple the sender module to the receiver module.
