Abrégé

A method is disclosed wherein a device registers with a Secure Service Edge (SSE) upon VPN client startup to receive a policy configuring the client as a forwarding agent. The policy designates a Domain Name System (DNS) and data packet route. A tunnel is established between an Application Connector (ACA) agent and an Application Connector Gateway (ACG). Upon receiving a data packet via the ACG containing a request with an application destination, the device checks for an existing flow at the ACG. If none exists, the device identifies the ACA in the Application Connector Gateway Group (ACAG), replacing the packet's IP address with the ACA's. The device routes the packet through the tunnel to the identified ACA, which directs it to the application. This method optimizes routing efficiency and ensures seamless connectivity between devices and applications.

Abrégé

The current technology involves a process of determining the likelihood of a received electronic communication to a first user being malicious by a content inspection service. If the communication is deemed suspicious, it will be directed to a generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool for engagement. All subsequent communications in the same thread will also be directed to the AI tool unless the first user explicitly requests control over the thread. The AI tool will then respond to the suspicious communication while posing as the first user, but without revealing any confidential information. This process helps to prevent potential attacks by remvoing the thread of malicious communications.

Abrégé

The present disclosure provides techniques for reporting of granular information related to a station device's uplink power headroom (UPH) in trigger-based transmissions. A client device identifies one or more power limit reasons that constrain a maximum transmit power of the client device. The client device determines an UPH based on a difference between the maximum transmit power and a current transmit power of the client device. The client device transmits a message to an access point (AP), including the UPH and the one or more power limit reasons. Based on the received information, the AP determines a target RSSI for the client device. The client device receives the target RSSI and an AP transmit power level from the AP, and defines an uplink transmit power as a function of the AP transmit power level and the target RSSI.

Abrégé

Operational machine components of an information technology (IT) or other microprocessor- or microcontroller-permeated environment generate disparate forms of machine data. Network connections are established between these components and processors of data intake and query system (DIQS). The DIQS conducts network transactions on a periodic and/or continuous basis with the machine components to receive disparate data and ingest certain of the data as entries of a data store that is searchable for DIQS query processing. The DIQS may receive queries to process against the received and ingested data via an exposed network interface. In one example embodiment, the DIQS receives a query identifying data to be processed, dynamically generates a query processing scheme based on the state of the data to be processed, such as streaming or at rest, and dynamically communicates the query processing scheme to a query executor based on the state of the data to be processed.

Abrégé

Devices, systems, methods, and processes for dynamic power management in network devices are described herein. Power consumption in network devices may fluctuate due to varying load conditions, leading to inefficiency if all power supply units (PSUs) in these network devices remain active all the time. To address this, a network device is provided with a power management logic that dynamically tunes a count of active PSUs in the network device based on a load demand handled by various PSUs in the network device. The power management logic may receive, from the PSUs, one or more load status signals indicating the load demand handled by the PSUs. Based on the one or more load status signals, the power management logic may determine whether to increase or decrease the count of active PSUs. Dynamically adjusting the count of active PSUs may enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs, and promote sustainability.

Abrégé

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for validating multiple paths used for routing network traffic in a network. In one aspect, a network controller can identify one or more intermediate nodes on each of multiple paths in a network, wherein the multiple paths begin at a first network node and end at a last network node. The network controller can further generate a data packet with a label at the first network node, forward the test data packet from the first network node, along each of the one or more intermediate nodes, to the last network node, and perform a data plane validation process for validating packet forwarding from the first network node to the last network node based on the label(s) by determining if a number of the multiple paths equals to a number of packets received at the last network node.

Abrégé

Techniques for tunneling Layer 2 ethernet frames over a connection tunnel using the MASQUE protocol are described herein. The MASQUE protocol may be extended to include a new entity, configured to proxy ethernet frames using a MASQUE proxy connection, and an associated CONNECT method, CONNECT-ETH. Using the extended MASQUE protocol, an Ethernet over MASQUE (EoMASQUE) tunnel may then be established between various networks that are remote from one another and connected to the internet. An EoMASQUE tunnel, established between separate remote client premises, and/or between a remote client premise and an enterprise premise, may tunnel ethernet packets between the endpoints. Additionally, a first EoMASQUE tunnel, established between a first client router provisioned in a first remote client premise and an EoMASQUE proxy node, and a second EoMASQUE tunnel, established between a second client premise and the EoMASQUE proxy node, may tunnel ethernet packets between the first and second client premise.

Abrégé

A system and method are provided for faster convergence with multihoming using internet protocol (IP) performance measurement (PM) sessions to report, to a transmitting provider edge (PE), a state of health of a connection between a multihomed node and a receiving (PE). The state of health can be the liveness of the connection. The receiving PE locally monitors the state of health of its connection to the node, and encodes information of the state of health in a field of the PM session messages sent to the transmitting PE. For example, while the PM session messages indicate the connection is live, traffic from the transmitting PE to the node is routed through the receiving PE. Upon the PM session messages indicating the connection is no longer live, the transmitting PE instead routes traffic to the node through another receiving PE with which the node is multihomed.
