Application: Egress handling for networks with public internet protocol (IP) address (Patent ID: US20230421478A1)
The patent filed by Zscaler Inc. relates to systems and methods for egress handling in networks using public IP addresses. The disclosure involves identifying the use of public IP addresses on private networks, performing traceroutes to edge nodes, and making location API calls to obtain egress and tunnel information. If no tunnel is present, a continuous network path is provided from the client to the destination. The patent also covers scenarios where the egress may not respond to the traceroute, in which case a hop before the edge node is identified as the egress.
The patent further details the use of different types of tunnels such as GRE and IPSEC, as well as the methods for identifying public IP addresses on private networks. The traceroute process is based on ICMP, TCP, or UDP protocols. The patent encompasses a non-transitory computer-readable medium, a method, and a cloud-based system for implementing these egress handling techniques in private networks utilizing public IP addresses. Overall, the patent aims to provide efficient and accurate methods for obtaining egress information in such network configurations to ensure smooth and secure data transmission.
