Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein provide private network driven hosted network device management that enables more robust management of private networks that include such equipment. For example, in some implementations, a method of private network driven hosted network device management includes receiving a fetch request from a compliant device, wherein the fetch request indicates demand for at least one of new and updated configuration data and instructions. In turn, the method further includes assessing whether or not the new and updated configuration data and instructions, for the requesting compliant device, will conflict with local customizations and indicate potential disruption to connectivity and services in an associated private network, in order to produce an assessment result. The method also includes selectively generating a new configuration file including a suitable set of new and updated configuration data and instructions based on the assessment result.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include systems, methods and apparatuses that involve a first device selecting a data tunnel for sending packets of a determined network traffic type to another device. For example, in some implementations, a method includes a first device receiving a first group of packets for forwarding to a second device. The method includes the first device retrieving packet-forwarding rules for forwarding the first group of packets, and selecting a first private network data tunnel from a plurality of private network data tunnels between the first device and the second device, for forwarding a first packet of the first group of packets, based on satisfaction of the retrieved packet-forwarding rules. A respective private network data tunnel is associated with a respective uplink of a plurality of uplinks of the first network device. The first private network data tunnel is associated with a first uplink of the first device.

Abstract: Previous solutions to the problem of maintaining up-to-date network device addressing, fail to provide systems or processes that efficiently share and obtain addressing information of networking devices in a given network. By contrast, and to that end, various implementations disclosed herein include systems, methods and apparatuses that generate a registry request message, where the registry request message includes a first portion characterized by a first write privilege and a second portion characterized by a second write privilege different from the first write privilege. The systems, methods and apparatuses convey the registry request message to a shared contact point network entity, and obtain a response message addressed from the shared contact point network entity, where the response message includes peer addressing information corresponding to one or more peer network devices associated with the aforementioned systems, methods and apparatuses.
