Abstract: A processing system implementing techniques for parallelized authentication encoding is provided. In one embodiment, the processing system includes an accumulator, a register representing a pipeline stage and a processing core coupled to the accumulator and to the register. The processing core is to split an input message into a first input stream and a second input stream. For each input stream, the processing core is further to add, to the accumulator, a data block from the input stream. Contents of the accumulator multiplied by a squared nonce value are stored in the register and a result of applying a modulo reduction operation to the contents of the register is stored in the accumulator. Thereupon, an authentication tag for the input message is generated based on the result stored in the accumulator and the contents of the register.

Abstract: Wireless access points detect neighboring wireless access points in different subnets. Upon connecting with a wireless client, a wireless access point determines predictive roaming information for the wireless client. Predictive roaming information identifies the wireless client; its home network subnet; and includes connection information associated with the wireless client. The wireless access point forwards the predictive roaming information associated with a wireless client to neighboring wireless access points while the wireless client is still connected with the wireless access point. Neighboring wireless access points store received predictive roaming information. Upon connecting with a wireless client, a neighboring wireless access point determines if the wireless client matches the stored predictive roaming information.
