    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to a method comprising receiving, at a network device, an authentication message intended for a user from an authentication server. The network device may be registered with the authentication server as a source device for the user. The method may also include determining, by the network device, a management device for the user that is the intended recipient of the authentication message. The authentication server is not configured to securely connect to the management device directly. The method may also include transmitting the authentication message from the network device to the determined management device.

    Abstract: An example branch gateway (BG) of a local area network (LAN) includes processing circuitry and a memory. The memory includes instructions that cause the BG to determine that a network traffic load of the BG is greater than that of another BG. The instructions further cause the BG to determine that a first network traffic load skew between the BG and the other BG is greater than a first threshold. The instructions further cause the BG to select a first virtual local area network (VLAN) of a set of VLANs of the LAN, wherein network traffic of client devices of the first VLAN is routed through the BG based on a master role of the first VLAN being assigned to the BG. The instructions further cause the BG to transmit a message to the other BG that assigns the master role of the first VLAN to the other BG.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for redistributing virtual private network tunnels among a plurality of virtual private network concentrators. The method includes receiving, from each of the virtual private network concentrators, a respective utilization indicator; selecting a source one of the virtual private network concentrators according to the utilization indicators; selecting a destination one of the virtual private network concentrators according to the utilization indicators; selecting one of the virtual private network tunnels connected to the source one of the virtual private network concentrators; and transferring the selected one of the virtual private network tunnels from the source one of the virtual private network concentrators to the destination one of the virtual private network concentrators.
