Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that, in various embodiments, improve chart performance by data filtering. In one aspect, the disclosed techniques allow all visible local maxima and minima to be rendered without having their values altered. In another aspect, the disclosed techniques filter data by skipping points evenly. In some embodiments, every horizontal pixel contains two points, so the line is visually uniform. This can dramatically enhance visualizations where data point intervals are uneven (e.g., having “mixed frequency”). Using a two point per pixel approach, the disclosed techniques ensure that a resulting simplified line looks almost identical to the original line by drawing at the limit of the screen resolution. The disclosed techniques allow for an algorithmic complexity of O(n), which is significantly faster than existing solutions.

The system location clusters the map markers based on the location within a cluster. The system then groups the clustered map markers based on the associated attribute, where each grouped marker retains the corresponding characteristic. The system then positions the grouped map markers within the corresponding cluster.

Abstract: A tile visualization has a window with a swim lane area and a panel area for displaying tiles that represent hierarchical data items. Tiles may be styled as cards. The swim lane displays an active tile and its immediate ancestors in a row or column. The active tile may be identified by a visual indicator. The panel displays one or more levels of the active tile's descendants. The descendants may be arranged in a matrix, or in columns each headed by an immediate descendant. The swim lane and panel are scrollable. A user can navigate up in the hierarchy by activating a tile in the swim lane, or down by activating a tile in the panel. Users may select one or more tiles without activating them.

Abstract: Techniques include quickly establishing a maximum transmission unit (MTU) for a network path, such as a network tunnel. In one example, data representative of the MTU is included in a header of a packet. If the MTU indicated in the packet is larger than a downstream network interface of a network device, the network device updates the data of the header to indicate the MTU of the downstream network interface, and an egress network device sends the packet back to an ingress network device. In another example, network devices fragment packets, if necessary, such that the fragments satisfy the MTU of the downstream network interface. The egress network device then determines the MTU for the path based on a largest received fragment, reassembles the fragments into a single packet, and returns the reassembled packet to the ingress network device. The packets may comprise echo packets of generic routing encapsulation (GRE).

Abstract: A grid-based visualization displays icons representing data entities in grid cells corresponding with the data entities' attribute values. The grid-based visualization enables users to zoom in or maximize the size of a selected grid cell, row of grid cells, column of grid cells, or any other selection of grid cells in a grid-based visualization. When zooming on a single row, the other rows are reduced in height and the selected row is enlarged to occupy the remaining space. When maximizing a single column, the other columns are reduced in width and the selected column is enlarged. When maximizing one or more cells, the unselected cells are minimized in height and/or width, and the selected cells are enlarged. Icons may be dynamically sized to fit within their assigned cells. An overflow indicator, zooming, and scrolling may be used to view sets of icons that cannot fit within their assigned cells.

Abstract: In general, techniques are described to dynamically adjust a session detection time defined by a timer in accordance with a bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) protocol. The techniques utilize existing hardware and BFD software infrastructure. An example network device includes a memory, programmable processor(s), and a control unit configured to execute a timer, receive one or more packets provided by the BFD protocol, detect, based on the received one or more packets, a congestion condition associated with a link via which the network device is coupled to a network, adjust, based on the detected congestion condition, a session detection time defined by the timer, and in response to a failure to receive a packet provided by the BFD protocol within the session detection time defined by the timer, detect a failure associated with the link.

Abstract: Techniques are described to reduce false alarms in network devices utilizing keepalive messaging schemes. In order to potentially avoid false alarms, a transmitting network device adjusts quality of service QOS/TOS settings in keep-alive probe packets that are sent later in a current detection interval such that the keep-alive probe packets have escalating priorities. In addition, for keep-alive probe packets that are sent later in the current detection interval, the network device may also insert host-level preferential indicator within each of the packets to request preferential treatment at both itself and the peer network device.

The system then changes the underlying data model based on the visual indicator modification.
