MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202441098111 A) filed by Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development Lp on December 11, 2024, for Time Synchronization For Virtual Networks.
Inventors include Venkatachalam Swaminathan; and Chandru Ds.
The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.
Abstract: In some examples, a first electronic device includes an interface to communicate over a plurality of virtual networks. A memory stores a mapping between virtual stream identifiers and respective interface-virtual network combinations, where a virtual stream identifier identifies a communication stream over a virtual network. As part of a time synchronization process over the virtual network, a first time clock perform a lookup of the mapping using a first virtual stream identifier to retrieve an identifier of the virtual network. The first time clock adds the identifier of the virtual network to a timing message, and sends, over the virtual network, the timing message to a second electronic device that includes a second time clock to which the first time clock of the first electronic device is to be synchronized over the virtual network according to the time synchronization process.
