  • Distributed wireless gateway
    Patent number: 12096337
    Abstract: A distributed wireless gateway comprises several switches. Each switch is coupled to a respective set of wireless access points. When a given switch receives a packet from one of its wireless access points, it creates a mapping between that access point and the host that sent the packet to the access point. The given switch advertises to other switches in the distributed wireless gateway reachability information that maps that host to the switch, enabling the other switches to identify the given switch as the next hop when they receive a packet destined for that host.

  • Packet forwarding between hybrid tunnel endpoints
    Patent number: 12057966
    Abstract: In a virtual extensible local area network (VxLAN) that includes a deployment of aggregation VxLAN tunnel endpoints (VTEPs) and access point (AP) VTEPs, packet processing by the aggregation VTEPs includes distinguishing between Type 1 VTEPs and Type 2 VTEPs. When the source of an ingress packet and the next hop destination are both Type 1 VTEPs, the ingress packet is dropped.
