Abstract: Techniques are presented herein for provisioning network devices based on device type. In one example, a packet core gateway of a cellular core network identifies a device type of a network device and obtains an indication to provision the network device. In response to obtaining the indication to provision the network device, the packet core gateway provisions the network device with one or more network resources based on the device type of the network device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a proactive indication of a disruption of a network session. In one example, a network session is established between a first endpoint and a second endpoint based on a connection-oriented protocol. One or more network attributes associated with the network session are stored in a persistent storage. The one or more network attributes may be obtained from the persistent storage when the network session is disrupted. A proactive indication that the network session has been disrupted may be provided to the second endpoint based on the one or more network attributes.

Abstract: Provisioning site specific policies in wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) deployments may be provided. First, a master computing device may receive a discovery request and data associated with neighbor access devices learned by a first access device. Then a Radio Frequency (RF) continuity space may be determined based on the received data associated with the neighbor access devices learned by the first access device. Next, a site tag associated with the determined RF continuity space may be determined. Then the site tag associated with the determined RF continuity space may be assigned to the first access device. For the first access device, a worker computing device having the site tag may be selected.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives update recovery data from a neighbor of the device in the network. The device monitors the neighbor during installation of a software update by the neighbor. The device detects an installation failure of the software update by the neighbor. The device causes recovery of the neighbor using the update recovery data, in response to detecting the installation failure of the software update by the neighbor.
