Abstract: In one embodiment, a service receives administration traffic data in a network associated with a remote administration session in which a control device remotely administers a client device. The service analyzes the administration traffic data to determine whether any portion of the administration traffic data is resulting from an administration session involving a trusted administrator. The service flags a first portion of the administration traffic data as authorized when the first portion of the administration traffic data is determined to result from an administration session involving a trusted administrator, and a second portion of the administration traffic data is non-flagged. The service assesses the second portion of the administration traffic data using a machine learning-based traffic classifier to determine whether the second portion of the administration traffic data is malicious.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile node having a first radio and a second radio applies stateless offline dictionary compression to an uncompressed stream of packets, to form a compressed stream of packets. The first radio of the mobile node communicates with a first access point of a wireless network and the second radio of the mobile node communicates with a second access point of the wireless network.

Abstract: In an example method, a network administrative device receives an indication that a multicast data flow is experiencing traffic loss. The administrative device transmits instructions to a last hop to begin monitoring incoming traffic, if the last hop is receiving expected traffic, the last hop sends it location to the administrative device. If the last hop is not receiving expected traffic, it sends instruction to a next upstream device to start monitoring incoming traffic. Based on receiving a message indicating the location of the last hop, the administrative device determines a network fault is occurring at a location of the last hop. Based on receiving a message indicating a location of an upstream device, the administrative device determines a network fault is occurring at the location of the upstream device.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for implementing a network component, such as a software-defined wide area network, a firewall, a router, or a load balancer. The network component can be an embedded network edge device that is implemented, e.g., in software, in circuitry, or using hardware acceleration (e.g., a data processing unit (DPU), a smart network interface card (SmartNIC), etc.). The system can include multiple dataplanes, including a primary dataplane and a shadow dataplane. A packet dispatcher relays received data packets to a primary dataplane and the shadow dataplane. The primary dataplane applies a current version of the network component to data packets, and the secondary dataplane applies a new version of the network component to identical replicas of the data packets. A control plane agent compares performance data gathered from the respective dataplanes to perform verification testing on the new version of the network component.

Abstract: Seamless client roaming for Multi-Link Device (MLD) clients may be provided. First, a Traffic Identifier (TID)-to-link map may be established by an Upper Service Access Point (U-SAP) of a multi-AP MLD entity that assigns subsets of TIDs to at least two links of the entity. For example, a client device logically associates with the U-SAP, while the client device physically connects to a first and second AP of the entity on a respective first and second link, where the first and second AP include first and second Lower Service Access Points (L-SAPs) and are non-collocated. Next, using the map, data received at the U-SAP is directed over one of the two links for transmission to the client device. Further, frame aggregation and block acknowledgment functions may be performed by one of the first or second L-SAP based on whether data transmission is over the first or second link.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory device in a network forms a virtual access point (VAP) for a node in the network. A set of access points (APs) in the network are mapped to the VAP as part of a VAP mapping and the node treats the APs in the VAP mapping as a single AP for purposes of communicating with the network. The supervisory device receives measurements from the APs in the VAP mapping regarding communications associated with the node. The supervisory device identifies a movement of the node based on the received measurements from the APs in the VAP mapping. The supervisory device adjusts the set of APs in the VAP mapping based on the identified movement of the node.

Abstract: An enterprise device identity proxy between an SMF and an Enterprise's device profile store supports N7 protocol for enterprise policy delivery between a central management service (CMS) and an enterprise policy service. In particular, when a user equipment (UE) requests a data service, the enterprise device identity proxy receives AAA transactions from the SMF running the enterprise policy service over a secondary authentication interface, stores the results in a data store, and uses business rules set forth by the CMS to transform Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) Attribute Value Pairs (AVPs) into a valid N7 response to the SMF. The enterprise device identity proxy enables an enterprise to treat a device with cellular connectivity using the same rules that would apply to other access/connection types without the complexity and cost of deploying a 3GPP policy service to support N7 protocol for policy delivery.
