发明名称 METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR OPTIMIZING TUNNELED TRAFFIC
摘要 A satellite communication system may be configured to establish multiple different tunnels between a first satellite modem and a second satellite modem in accordance with a protocol. The first satellite modem may receive a packet via a tunnel established in accordance with a different protocol, determine an endpoint identifier corresponding to the tunnel based on information from one or more headers included in the packet, identify one of the multiple different tunnels that corresponds to the tunnel, generate a corresponding packet omitting at least a portion of the information from the one or more headers and comprising at least a portion of data included in a payload of the packet and an information block comprising a tunnel index corresponding to the identified one of the multiple different tunnels, and transmit the corresponding packet to the second satellite modem via the identified one of the multiple different tunnels.

主权项 1. A system comprising: a first satellite modem comprising a communication interface configured to interface with a satellite link; and hardware comprising executable logic that when executed causes the first satellite modem to, responsive to determining that a packet was received via a tunnel established in accordance with a first protocol: determine, based on information from one or more headers included in the packet, an endpoint identifier corresponding to the tunnel established in accordance with the first protocol;identify, based on the endpoint identifier and from amongst a plurality of different tunnel indexes corresponding to a plurality of different tunnels established between the first satellite modem and a second satellite modem in accordance with a second protocol, a tunnel index for the packet, the second protocol being different from the first protocol;generate, for the packet, a corresponding packet, the corresponding packet omitting at least a portion of the information from the one or more headers and comprising at least a portion of data included in a payload of the packet and an information block comprising the tunnel index; andtransmit, via the communication interface and a tunnel, of the plurality of different tunnels, corresponding to the tunnel index, the corresponding packet to the second satellite modem.
