DYNAMIC, USER-CONFIGURABLE VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240022544 titled 'DYNAMIC, USER-CONFIGURABLE VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for managing communications between an origin and a destination using configurable virtual private networks (VPNs). The system allows for the creation of multiple VPNs, each defining a different data path between the origin and the destination.

Key points of the patent/application:

  • The system allows for the creation of multiple VPNs with different data paths.
  • Each packet sent across a VPN follows the same data path for that VPN.
  • The transition between VPNs is seamless, ensuring uninterrupted communication between the origin and the destination.
  • The system can be configured by end-users and/or administrators.
  • The system ensures that packets are sent across the VPNs in the order they were received.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Secure communication between different branches or offices of a company.
  • Remote access to a private network for employees working from home.
  • Secure communication between a company and its clients or partners.
  • Secure communication for IoT devices within a network.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures secure and uninterrupted communication between the origin and the destination.
  • Allows for the creation of multiple data paths, providing flexibility and redundancy.
  • Simplifies the management and configuration of VPNs for end-users and administrators.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced security and privacy for communication.
  • Improved reliability and redundancy through multiple data paths.
  • Simplified configuration and management of VPNs.
  • Seamless transition between VPNs, ensuring uninterrupted communication.


Original Abstract Submitted

some embodiments described herein relate managing communications between an origin and a destination using end-user and/or administrator configurable virtual private network(s) (vpn(s)). a first vpn that defines a first data path between an origin and a destination can be defined at a first time. a second vpn that defines a second, different data path between the origin and the destination can defined at a second time. each packet sent across the first vpn and each packet sent across the second vpn can follow the same data path for that vpn, such each packet can be sent across the first vpn or the second vpn in the order it was received, and the transition between the first vpn and the second vpn can be “seamless,” and communications between the origin and the destination are not disrupted between the first time period and the second time period.
