Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, an asset inventory service executed by one or more devices receives telemetry data collected passively by a sensor application regarding a node in a network. The asset inventory service requests, after receiving the telemetry data, that the sensor application perform active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service receives active discovery data collected by the sensor application via active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service generates, based on the telemetry data and the active discovery data, an identity profile for the node.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention facilitates address resolution protocol (ARP) resolution in an extended subnet. A gateway of a first segment of the extended subnet can determine that a layer-2 address corresponding to a layer-3 destination address of a packet is locally unavailable. The gateway can then determine whether a respective egress interface of an ARP request for the layer-3 destination address is associated with a layer-2 subnet extension from the first segment to a second segment of the extended subnet. The extension can provide a common layer-2 broadcast domain comprising the first and second segments with a same default gateway layer-3 address. If the egress interface is associated with the extension, the gateway can insert a layer-3 address of a first endpoint associated with the extension as a source protocol address in the ARP request. The gateway can send the modified ARP request via the egress interface.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to method and a system for managing a decentralized access to a resource. A user of a client device having a third-party application installed therein request to join the mesh network based on invite received from the owner of the IoT gateway. The mesh network comprises one or more IoT gateway. One gateway is identified based on the topology of the client device, and an optimal connection between the client device and the identified gateway is determined. The third-party application may send a resource access request for accessing a resource of the mesh network and access the requested resource through the optimal connection route thus determined. Thus, the disclosure enables a peer-to-peer mesh network infrastructure that allows secure access to the resource by a third-party application without using a cloud server to route the resource access request from the client device to the gateway.

One or more datasets with words used during past conversations between a chatbot and a set of users with known maturity metrics are generated. A machine learning model is trained by applying machine learning to the one or more datasets such that the machine learning model is trained to output maturity metrics based on words received as inputs. A set of words or phrases spoken or written by the user during a conversation is fed to the machine learning model to determine a maturity metric of the user. A response is identified based on the determined maturity metric, and the response is presented during the conversation with the user. Words and phrases of a user conversing with a chatbot are used to determine the user's age or another maturity metric to generate responses that enhance the user experience.

The first FAS agent increment a state identifier associated with the configuration of the first network device to a new state identifier associated with the new configuration. The first FAS agent may then transmit a control packet that includes the new state identifier. A second FAS agent executing on the second network device may receive the control packet and execute the command to update the configuration of the second network device to the new configuration.
