  • Patent number: 11805045
    Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively transmitting routing information between separated local area network (LAN) interfaces are disclosed. In exemplary embodiments, a network appliance to update a local routing table with IP subnet, neighbor type, source type, and community identifier of a second network appliance; based at least on the local routing table, receive a customized routing policy and subnet exporting policy that permits the network appliance to export a subset of IP addresses from the local routing table to a permitted community of network appliances, wherein the customized routing policy and subnet exporting policy are configured by a network administrator of the network appliance; match the permitted community of network appliances to a new community identifier of a third network appliance; and export the subset of IP addresses of the local routing table to the third network appliance based on the customized routing policy and subnet exporting policy.

  • Patent number: 11419011
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for dynamically selecting network paths for data transmission in a virtual overlay network created and maintained across multiple communication networks managed by service providers. The simple creation and management of network overlays is accomplished via a network orchestrator manager, allowing for automation of configuration of connected network devices throughout an entire organization's network, regardless of the physical location of each device. Further, error correcting information can be transferred across a different network path than a plurality of data packets, in accordance with a designated bonding policy.

  • Patent number: 11336553
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for the dynamic monitoring of network health characteristics via a visualization platform. The platform receives collected information regarding network health characteristics and applies a rule set defining at least one threshold to classify each of the network health characteristics for each network component over a time period. The classifications can be represented visually on a graphical user interface to a network administrator, allowing the administrator to quickly discern which aspects of the network are operating properly and which aspects are not.

  • Patent number: 11212210
    Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively advertising routing information by a network appliance to a neighboring computing device are disclosed. In exemplary embodiments, customized export policies are created based on source type for each neighboring computing device to a network appliance. A source type for routing information is determined by the network appliance. The routing information is exported by the appliance to the neighboring computing device, such as a BGP router, based on the customized export policy associated with the source type.
