Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a network are disclosed. One method can comprise receiving data having information identifying a first path to a destination, wherein the information facilitates transmission of the data to a next-hop of the first path. A congestion state of the first path can be determined. If the first path has a congested state, a second path to the destination can be determined, wherein the second path has a non-congested state. The information of the data can be updated to identify the second path to the destination, wherein the updated information facilitates transmission of the data to a next-hop of the second path.

Abstract: A sending node may send a network message to a multicast IP address. The sending node and a recipient node may be in communication via a plurality of intermediary nodes. The recipient node may receive a number of copies of the network message that corresponds to a number of equal cost paths between the sending node and the recipient node. The recipient node may send a reply to each of the copies of the network message to the sending node. The sending node may provide the replies to a collector module, which may use the replies for network analytics, network monitoring, machine learning, and the like.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining traffic information for devices along one or more routes are described. A content server may send a message to a plurality of devices along a route. The message may comprise an indication requesting each of the devices to send, to the content server, status information regarding the respective device. Intermediary devices may receive the message, respond with the requested information, and forward the message through the route. The message may comprise a stateless messaging protocol message such as an ICMP or UDP packet.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for monitoring and control of a network traffic in a cloud server environment is disclosed. The method includes receiving network traffic at a cloud service account that includes a corresponding local security enforcement module configured to enforce security policies for data processed by the cloud service account and forwarding a part of the network traffic from the cloud service account to a centralized security monitoring hub that includes a hardware-based security component. The method also includes detecting, by the hardware-based security component, offending traffic that includes traffic from an unwanted source or with malicious content.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for requesting, at a service configured on a server, a public key infrastructure (PKI) generated certificate using a PKI agent, where the PKI agent stores a private key and the generated certificate in a key management service (KMS). An application layer security controller communicatively coupled to the server registers the service to enable the application layer to inspect packets. The PKI agent transmits version information for the certificates to the application layer security controller, and the PKI agent updates the certificates and keys in the KMS. The service and an application layer datapath component change the routing of packets using an overlay network and inspect at least one of the packets. The application layer datapath component decapsulates at least one packet by using the private keys and certificates retrieved from the KMS, and performs application inspection of the decapsulated packet.

Abstract: A network connectivity system identifies potential connection mechanisms between datacenter entities (e.g., between service instances) on the cloud platform. The network connectivity system provides recommendations including one or more connectivity paths that are preferred with respect to one or more indicators, for example, cost, latency, or security. Specifically, the network connectivity system receives a request to configure a network connection between a first service instance and a second service instance on the cloud platform. The first service instance and the second service instance may reside within the same or different datacenters, different geographical locations, and the like. A network connectivity system identifies, from network connectivity information, one or more connectivity mechanisms for establishing connection between a first datacenter entity (e.g., first service instance) and a second datacenter entity (e.g., second service instance).

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods may provide for robust and autonomous provisioning of routing nodes and/or server stacks within a network. For instance, each routing node and/or server stack may perform self-discovery (e.g., determines its own identity and where it has been placed in the network), and determine its role (e.g., how to route packets) within the network.
