COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18337345 titled 'COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The communication apparatus described in this patent application is designed to process and transmit packets of data between two communication lines. It includes several components such as an input unit, an output unit, a processing unit, a switching unit, a detection unit, and a changing unit.

  • The input unit receives packets of data from a first communication line.
  • The output unit sends the packets to a second communication line.
  • The processing unit handles the processing of the packets.
  • The switching unit can switch the path for outputting the packets between a normal path and a bypass path.
  • The normal path passes through an access point that the processing unit can access.
  • The bypass path does not pass through the access point.
  • The detection unit is responsible for identifying a specific packet that meets certain conditions.
  • This detection occurs when the path is switched to the bypass path.
  • The changing unit is used to modify the state of the communication apparatus when the specific packet is detected.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Network communication systems
  • Data centers
  • Internet service providers
  • Telecommunication networks

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient packet processing and transmission
  • Detection of specific packets meeting certain conditions
  • Flexibility in switching between different paths

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network performance and efficiency
  • Enhanced security and monitoring capabilities
  • Increased flexibility and control over packet routing


Original Abstract Submitted

A communication apparatus includes an input unit configured to be input a packet from a first communication line, an output unit configured to output the packet to a second communication line, a processing unit configured to process the packet, a switching unit configured to switch a path for outputting, from the output unit, the packet input from the input unit between a normal path passing through an access point that the processing unit can access and a bypass path not passing through the access point, a detection unit configured to detect a specific packet that satisfies a specific condition from among a plurality of packets in a state where the path is switched to the bypass path by the switching unit, and a changing unit configured to change a state of the communication apparatus in a case where the specific packet is detected.
