Abstract: A device is configured to support one or more virtual networking functions at a branch in a network. The device receives from a central control entity a command to deploy a particular virtual networking function, the command including or accompanied by a deployment file that identifies an external port at which the particular virtual networking function is accessed externally at the device. The device maps the external port to an internal port on an internal management network of the device, and stores a portmapping entry for the particular virtual networking function based on the mapping. The device sends to the central control entity a notification containing portmapping information that indicates the internal port to which the external port is mapped.

Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for enabling the zero touch deployment of devices having an integrated wireless wide area network (WWAN) interface. In one example, a method includes initializing a device with a WWAN interface such that the device attaches to a WWAN, receiving, via the WWAN interface of the device, a data message that includes encrypted bootstrap configuration information, obtaining a key stored in a subscriber identification module (SIM) card of the WWAN interface, decrypting the encrypted bootstrap configuration information using the key, establishing communication with a remote server using the bootstrap configuration information and obtaining configuration data from the remote server, and performing self-configuration of the device using the configuration data.
