    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate, in one aspect, to a computing device. The computing device may include a timing engine and a location engine. The timing engine may obtain reset information associated with a plurality of computing devices located at a plurality of locations, wherein each computing device comprises a timer. The timing engine may also obtain timer values of the timers of the plurality of computing devices. The location engine may determine, based at least on the reset information and the timer values, the location of at least one of the plurality of computing devices.

    Abstract: Techniques related to network switch flooding are described. in one aspect, a network switch may receive a plurality of node identifiers. The node identifiers may identify nodes reachable via a port of the switch. Flooding on the port may be disabled. Traffic destined for nodes reachable via the port may be sent on the port.

    Abstract: A method and a system for reserving a device for a system are provided herein. The method includes accessing a reserved device, where a basic input/output system (BIOS) uses the reserved device. The method includes initializing a register, via the BIOS firmware, to disable a port that connects to the reserved device. The method includes disabling the port that connects to the reserved device. The disabling may occur before the BIOS firmware transfers control of the system to an operating system. The disabling may hide the reserved device from the operating system and reserve the reserved device for the BIOS firmware without interference from the operating system.

    Abstract: Techniques to inspect packets to determine a destination node are provided. In one aspect, a Wake on Lan (WOL) packet may be received at a switch. A destination node of the WOL packet may be determined. An indication of the determined destination node may be sent to a management controller. The management controller may cause the destination node to awaken.
