    Abstract: In one embodiment, a server instructs one or more networking devices in a local area network (LAN) to form a virtual network overlay in the LAN that redirects traffic associated with a particular node in the LAN to the server. The server receives the redirected traffic associated with the particular node. The server trains a machine learning-based behavioral model for the particular node based on the redirected traffic. The server controls whether a particular redirected traffic flow associated with the node in the LAN is sent to a destination of the traffic flow using the trained behavioral model.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a networking device in a local area network (LAN) receives an instruction from a server to form a virtual network overlay in the LAN that redirects traffic associated with a particular node in the LAN to the server for analysis. The networking device establishes the virtual network overlay in the LAN to redirect traffic associated with the particular node to the server. The networking device determines that at least a portion of the traffic associated with the particular node should be processed locally within the LAN and not via redirection to the server and adjusts the virtual network overlay to process the at least a portion of the traffic associated with the particular node locally within the LAN and not via redirection to the server.

    Abstract: A particular fat tree network node stores default routing information indicating that the particular fat tree network node can reach a plurality of parent fat tree network nodes of the particular fat tree network node. The particular fat tree network node obtains, from a first parent fat tree network node of the plurality of parent fat tree network nodes, a negative disaggregation advertisement indicating that the first parent fat tree network node cannot reach a specific destination. The particular fat tree network node determines whether the first parent fat tree network node is the only parent fat tree network node of the plurality of parent fat tree network nodes that cannot reach the specific destination. If so, the particular fat tree network node installs supplemental routing information indicating that every parent fat tree network node except the first parent fat tree network node can reach the specific destination.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network inserts a profile tag into an address request sent by an endpoint node in the network to a lookup service. The lookup service is configured to identify one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate based on a profile for the endpoint node associated with the inserted profile tag. The device receives an address response sent from the lookup service to the endpoint node that indicates the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device determines whether a communication between the endpoint node and a particular network address is authorized using the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device blocks the communication based on a determination that the particular network address is not in the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a cloud-based service instructs one or more networking devices in a local area network (LAN) to form a virtual network overlay in the LAN that redirects traffic associated with a particular node in the LAN to the service. The service receives multicast or broadcast traffic sent by the particular node in the LAN and redirected to the service via the virtual network overlay. The service identifies a group of nodes in the network that are to receive the traffic sent by the particular node, based in part by profiling the traffic associated with the particular node. The service sends the traffic sent by the particular node to at least one networking device in the LAN with an indication of the identified group of nodes in the network that are to receive the traffic sent by the particular node. The at least one networking device forwards the traffic sent by the particular node to the nodes in the identified group.

    Abstract: Theft detection in data center networks may be provided. First, a first leaf switch may create an entry in a first distributed secure cache in response to an endpoint appearing on the first leaf switch. The entry may correspond to the endpoint and may be marked as having a tentative state. Then a request message may be sent to a plurality of leaf switches. The request message may comprise data identifying the endpoint. Next, a reply message may be received in response to the request message from a second leaf switch within the plurality of leaf switches. The tentative state may then be removed from the entry in response to the reply message indicating that the endpoint is valid.
