20090240645 | System and method for identifying conflicting network access rules and creating a resolved consequence - A method of selectively identifying conflicting network access rules within a knowledge base containing a plurality of network access rules, each rule having a condition portion and a consequence portion, and creating a corresponding resolved consequence, including the steps of comparing the condition portions of the rules, determining conflicting rules to be rules with matching condition portions and differing consequence portions, and analyzing the consequence portions of each of the conflicting rules to define the resolved consequence to be executed when the condition portion in any of the conflicting rules is executed. | 09-24-2009 |
20100153327 | DECLARATIVE NETWORK ACCESS CONTROL - A system and method for declarative network access control are provided. The system includes an interpreter, a rules engine, a storage device, and a processor. The interpreter transforms sentences in a declarative network access control language to rules. The rules engine evaluates the rules to produce actions for providing access control to a network at a point of access. The storage device stores instructions for the interpreter, the rules and the rules engine and the processor executes those instructions. | 06-17-2010 |
20110107091 | Secure communication between client device and server device - A user is enabled to select one or more client devices from a number of client devices and to select one or more server devices from a number of server devices. Secure communication is to occur between each selected client device and each selected server device. For each unique pair of a selected client device and a selected server device, a validation of a security configuration of the selected client device and a security configuration of the selected server device is performed, to determine whether secure communication can occur between the selected client device and the selected server device. Where the validation has failed, reconfiguration of one or more of the selected client device and the selected server device is performed so that secure communication can occur between the selected client device and the selected server device. | 05-05-2011 |
20120110461 | HEADLESS APPLIANCE - A headless appliance includes a network chassis management interface determiner configured to determine a network chassis management interface. The headless appliance is configured to be disposed in a network chassis. The headless appliance also includes a management interface command mapping configured to associate commands of the network chassis management interface to commands of a headless appliance management interface. | 05-03-2012 |
20130041999 | DETERMINING INFORMATION ABOUT A COMPUTING SYSTEM - In a method for determining information about a computing system, a designated process in the computing system is monitored. A determination whether a selected event has occurred in the designated process is made. State information and configuration information regarding the computing device is collected in response to a determination that the selected event has occurred. Meta information associated with the designated process is determined in response to a determination that the selected event has occurred. The state information, the configuration information and the meta information is recorded in an accessible file. | 02-14-2013 |
