Abstract: In general, in one aspect, embodiments relate to receiving, by a system comprising one or more network devices, a first client authentication information comprising a first indication that a first client device was successfully authenticated by a first authentication server based on credentials provided by the first client device, and forwarding, by the system, the first client authentication information to a second authentication server without determining that the client device was already successfully authenticated by the first authentication server based on the credentials provided by the first client device. The operations further include receiving, by the system from the second authentication server, a second indication that the first client device was successfully authenticated, and based on the second indication received by the system from the second authentication server, granting, by the system, network access to the first client device.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the invention, a memory apparatus is disclosed. The memory apparatus includes a memory array, a block read/write controller, and a random access read memory controller. The memory array is block read/write accessible and random read accessible. The block read/write controller is coupled between the memory array and an external interconnect. The block read/write controller performs block read/write operations upon the memory array to access blocks of consecutive memory locations therein. The random access read memory controller is coupled between the memory array and the external interconnect in parallel with the block read/write access controller. The random access read memory controller performs random read memory operations upon the memory array to access random memory locations therein.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and a network device for controlling DHCP pool exhaustion in dynamic network environments. Specifically, a network device determines that a client device is assigned an Internet Protocol (IP) address by a DHCP server. The network device detects that the client device is disconnected from a network associated with the IP address, for example, by receiving a de-association message from the client device; determining that a session or an entry corresponding to the client device has timed out; determining that the client device has failed to respond to one or more messages transmitted to the client device; determining that the client device has connected to another network different than said network; etc. In response, the network device then generates a DHCP release message on behalf of the client device, and transmits the DHCP release message to the DHCP server.

Abstract: A command from an application is received to access a data structure associated with one or more virtual addresses mapped to main memory. A first subset of the virtual addresses for the data structure having constituent addresses that are mapped to the symmetric memory components and a second subset of the virtual addresses for the data structure having constituent addresses that are mapped to the asymmetric memory components are identified. Data associated with the virtual address from the first physical addresses and data associated with the virtual addresses from the second physical addresses are accessed. The data associated with the symmetric and asymmetric memory components is accessed by the application without providing the application with an indication of whether the data is accessed within the symmetric memory component or the asymmetric memory component.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and network device for using mobile devices with validated user network identity as physical identity proof. Responsive to successfully authenticating a client device for network access, a system generates a network credential for the client device and transmits the network credential to the client device. Further, the system detects that the client device is within a range of a short range wireless device that is associated with a particular physical action. Consequently, the system validates the network credential that the client device possesses. Based on the network credential, the system determines that the client device has permissions for performing the particular physical action, and causes performance of the particular physical action.

Abstract: Main memory is managed by receiving a command from an application to read data associated with a virtual address that is mapped to the main memory. A memory controller determines that the virtual address is mapped to one of the symmetric memory components of the main memory, and accesses memory use characteristics indicating how the data associated with the virtual address has been accessed, The memory controller determines that the data associated with the virtual address has access characteristics suited to an asymmetric memory component of the main memory and loads the data associated with the virtual address to the asymmetric memory component of the main memory. After the loading and using the memory management unit, a command is received from the application to read the data associated with the virtual address, and the data associated with the virtual address is retrieved from the asymmetric memory component.
