In some embodiments, generated reports include one or more of: i) message header information, e.g. resource unit (RU) allocation and/or use information and/or BSS color information, ii) collision reports, iii) received signal strength indicator (RSSI) reports, signal to noise ratio (SNR) reports, iv) interference reports; v) power information; vi) access point measurement information; and vii) access point control information.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for controlling basic service set (BSS) configuration of an access point (AP) in a multi-AP network. The multi-AP network may include a first AP that manages a first basic service set (BSS) and a second AP that manages a second BSS. The first BSS and the second BSS may share one or more wireless channels or may have overlapping coverage areas. A multi-AP controller may determine a BSS configuration policy (such as a maximum transmission opportunity (TXOP) duration) for the second BSS based on a type of traffic in the first BSS. This disclosure includes techniques for sharing traffic characteristics, determining the BSS configuration policy, communicating the BSS configuration policy, and controlling the BSS configuration policies for multiple BSSs so that one of the BSSs can provide a quality of service (QoS) for one or more stations (STAs).

Abstract: A network platform manages the provisioning of a UE with a dominant identity profile and a recessive identity profile. The dominant profile is associated with a user's existing wireless data plan and the recessive profile corresponds to a data plan of a provider of device, or machine-to-machine, services to the UE. The UE uses the two profiles to transmit separate data contexts on separate respective bearers. When managing two separate bearers, the UE always uses the dominant profile first for managing a handoff to a stronger cell. The UE reports that the new cell that now serves the dominant context is the only cell that has enough strength to support the recessive context, even if other cells near the UE have signals strong enough. This necessarily causes the recessive context to always be handed off to the same cell to which the dominant context has already been handed off.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for performing application-based tagging. An example method is performed by a virtual socket of a device.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method includes, in response to detecting available memory of a destination node of a packet flow of nodes to the destination node being below a particular threshold, marking the destination node as being in a backpressure state. The destination node, in the backpressure state, sends a signal indicating a condition of packet backpressure to the nodes of the packet flow, and initiates a timer for a particular time period. The method further marks, at the end of the particular time period, the destination node as being in a bad actor state if the available memory is below the particular threshold, and as being in a good actor state if the memory is above the particular threshold. The method, in response to marking the destination node as being in a bad actor state, sends a signal to the nodes causing the nodes to drop packets directed to the destination node.
