Abstract: According to an example, an application initiating a communication session may be identified via a mapping of the application information with a pattern of interest included in a DNS server response corresponding to the application. Information regarding the communication session may be obtained and a determination may be made as to whether the communication session includes media data. If the communication session includes media data, control of the application and the communication session may be enabled via an interface.

Abstract: A network system and the method is described that splits media identification logic and media classification and/or general data session processing/management logic into separate controllers (e.g., between the local controllers and a service controller). By separating media identification logic and media classification logic (or general media processing/management logic), the system and method allows for greater flexibility and scalability in a network system employing a service controller. In particular, by allowing the local controllers to perform media identification and to construct a single packet that characterizes/describes a media session, the system avoids the need to transmit multiple data packets of a media session to the service controller for classification of the session.

Abstract: Examples relate to managing network traffic. In one example, a computing device may: receive voice network traffic from each of a plurality of voice clients; enqueue the received voice network traffic into a voice Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) queue; determine a measure of WMM queue utilization based on data queued in the voice WMM queue; determine a measure of radio congestion for a surrounding area; and determine, based on the measure of WMM queue utilization and the measure of radio congestion, to: stop prioritization of newly received voice traffic from new voice clients, or transition at least one of the plurality of voice clients to a neighboring computing device.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more hardware processors, causes performance of operations including: determining a location associated with a client device, assigning a priority to packets, received from the client device or targeted for the client device, based at least on the location associated with the client device, and processing packets based on the priority assigned to the packets.

Abstract: Various techniques and systems are provided for executing call admission control in a cluster deployment including the sharing of call and capacity information between controllers in a cluster to make call capacity decisions for an access point.
