Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a centralized service discovery management (CSDM) system and method for distributing service discovery records to access points (APs). The CSDM system receives a service discovery record from a source AP of a plurality of APs deployed in an information technology (IT) infrastructure. The CSDM system is deployed outside the IT infrastructure. The service discovery record comprises information about an application server. Further, the CSDM system generates a neighbor AP group for the application server based on nearness between the source AP and the rest of the plurality of APs, wherein the neighbor AP group includes a set of neighbor APs identified from the plurality of APs. Moreover, the CSDM system transmits the service discovery record to the set of neighbor APs so that the application server is discoverable by client devices connected to the set of neighbor APs.

Abstract: Examples include receiving, from a VoIP server, identification information of the virtual meeting and information of a plurality of client devices participating in the virtual meeting, associating each client device of the plurality of client devices to a network device in a set of network devices based on the identification information of the virtual meeting and capabilities of the set of network devices, and creating a proxy agent in each network device in the set. The proxy agent is configured to receive, from the VoIP server, VoIP streaming data of the virtual meeting. Additionally, examples include, configuring the proxy agent to replicate and transmit the VoIP streaming data to the plurality of client devices.

Abstract: Examples described herein provide network service discovery in a network. Examples herein include receiving, from a network device in the network, a set of records corresponding to a set of service advertisements indicative of capabilities of services hosted by respective host devices connected to the network device. Examples herein include determining, a set of neighbor network devices corresponding to the network device, based on radio frequency (RF) data in the network and a predefined set of policies associated with each of the set of records. Examples herein further include sending the set of records to the set of the neighbor network devices, where each of the set of neighbor network devices is to serve service discovery requests based on the set of records.

Abstract: In embodiments described herein, a chatbot is provided for engaging in a chatbot session with one or more computing devices. The chatbot session can be for providing technical support to or for a system or device. Data is collected from networking devices such as access points and, in turn, processed to obtain context data. The context data that is relevant to a chatbot session is provided to the chatbot and, in turn, the chatbot customizes its communications based on the context data.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to network deployment of devices. For example, a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by a processing resource can determine a plurality of deployment thresholds of a plurality of devices, wherein the plurality of deployment thresholds are associated with a type of the plurality of devices. The instructions can cause the processing resource to monitor deployment data associated with the plurality of devices to identify a device with a deployment outlier. The device with the deployment outlier is a device with deployment data that is outside a deployment threshold of the device. The instructions can cause the processing resource to adjust the deployment threshold of the device based on the monitoring.
