Systems and methods are disclosed for synchronizing sequence numbers in a packet flow. One such method includes receiving a sequence number synchronization request from a redundancy peer. The sequence number synchronization request is associated with a packet flow. The method also includes incrementing by a fixed amount a packet sequence number for the packet flow, after the sequence number synchronization request. The method also includes transmitting a next packet including the incremented packet sequence number to the communication peer.

Systems and methods of redundancy for real time communications are disclosed. One such system includes a first device and a second device, where the first device includes a redundant tunneled services element (RTSE) and the second device includes a redundant tunnel services control function (RTSCF). The RTSCF is in communication with the RTSE and is operable to establish a redundant secure tunnel to the RTSE. The RTSE is operable to redundantly convey a first stream of media packets over the redundant secure tunnel to the RTSCF. The RTSCF is operable to redundantly convey a second stream of media packets over the redundant secure tunnel to the RTSE.

A network device has an input configured to receive a message relating to a given user attempting to forward one or more packets across a computer network. The message has given user information relating to the given user. In addition, the routing device also has a selector, operatively coupled with the input, configured to select (after receiving the message) a given group routing policy from a plurality of group routing policies. Preferably, the selector is configured to select the given group routing policy as a function of the given user information. The routing device also has an output operatively coupled with the selector. The output is configured to cause routing of user communication across the network using link-layer routes specified by the given group routing policy.

Methods, devices, and systems for facilitation of communication between participants of an electronic marketplace involve receiving a message generated from a market participant and transmitting the message to other market participants. The facilitation also involves receiving responses to the message from the other market participants and transmitting the responses to the message originating market participant such that the transmitted response is imperceptible to the other market participants.

A packet routing method for directing packets of a session in an IP network causes an intermediate node to obtain a lead packet of a plurality of packets in a given session. The intermediate node has an electronic interface in communication with the IP network and obtains the lead packet through that same interface. The method maintains, in a routing database, state information relating to a plurality of sessions in the IP network. Each session includes a single stateful session path formed by an ordered plurality of nodes in the IP network, and the state information includes information about the ordered plurality of nodes in the sessions. The method further accesses the routing database to determine the state of a plurality of sessions, and forms a stateful given path for packets of the given session across the IP network as a function of the state information in the routing database.

An intermediate node obtains a lead packet of a plurality of packets in a session having a unique session identifier, modifies the lead packet to identify at least the intermediate node and also to identify source and destination port numbers assigned by the intermediate node for a possible forward association, and then forwards the lead packet toward the destination node though an intermediate node electronic output interface to the IP network. The intermediate node also may receive, through an intermediate node electronic input interface in communication with the IP network, a backward message from a next node having a next node identifier. Both the intermediate node and the next node form an association between the intermediate node identifier, the next node identifier, and the source and destination port numbers assigned by the intermediate node. This association is part of a forward association for the intermediate node and is part of a return associate for the next node.
