Abstract: In one embodiment, a device classification service receives data indicative of network traffic policies assigned to a plurality of device types. The device classification service associates measures of policy restrictiveness with the device types, based on the received data indicative of the network traffic policies assigned to the plurality of device types. The device classification service determines misclassification costs associated with a machine learning-based device type classifier of the service misclassifying an endpoint device of one of the plurality device types with another of the plurality of device types, based on their associated measures of policy restrictiveness. The device classification service adjusts the machine learning-based device type classifier to account for the determined misclassification costs.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods of enhancing prefetch operations. One potential method comprises fetching an object from a page on a web server. The method may further include storing, at a proxy server, caching instructions for the fetched object. The proxy server may be connected with the client and the object is cached at the client. Furthermore, the method may include identifying a prefetchable reference to the fetched object in a subsequent web page and using the caching instructions stored on the proxy server to determine if a fresh copy of the object will be requested by the client. Further, the method may include, based on the determination that the object will be requested, sending a prefetch request for the object using an If-Modified-Since directive, and transmitting a response to the If-Modified-Since directive prefetch request to a proxy client.

Abstract: A networked electronic device produces a data object comprising content and assigns a location-independent application-level name to the data object. The location-independent application-level name is independent of any network location at which the content is available. The networked electronic device maps the location-independent application-level name to an IP address, generates a DNS resource record specifying the mapping of the location-independent application-level name to the IP address, and provides the DNS resource record to a DNS network node.

Abstract: Filtering based containerized virtual machine networking is disclosed. For example, a host has a processor, a memory, and a network interface (NIC), and a hypervisor executes on the host. A container with a filtering module executes on the host with a virtual machine (VM) with a virtual network interface (VNIC) executing on the container. The VNIC receives a message for transmission over a network. The filtering module determines whether an internet protocol (IP) address in the message matches a validation IP address configured in the filtering module. In response to determining that the IP address in the message is invalid, transmission of the message is canceled and the message is sent to a remediation service. In response to determining that the IP address in the message valid, the container forwards the message to the hypervisor, which transmits the message to the network using the IP address via the NIC.

Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for automatically assigning individual topological addresses to network switches includes obtaining first individual topological addresses each of which includes one identifier of a hierarchical level and N?1 non-hierarchical identifier(s) of the network switch with which it is associated, N?2. It further includes the transcoding of each first individual topological address by subdividing the N?1 non-hierarchical switch identifier(s) as a function of a value of the hierarchical level identifier into one or more sub-topology identifiers separated from one another by at least one first separator character, forming a first character string, and into one or more switch identifier(s) separated from one another by at least one second separator character, forming a second character string. A second hierarchical individual topological address is thus constituted by concatenation including the first and second character strings, as well as a third separator character therebetween.
