摘要: In general, this disclosure describes an IoT access control exchange for IoT devices. Verifiable credentials can be generated and used to grant access to IoT devices definitively identified using a Decentralized Identifier (DID). DIDs for IoT devices are registered by the IoT exchange hub acting as an Identity Hub. An organization interested in obtaining data from a collection of devices, the IoT Access Customer, contacts the IoT device owner agent via their mutual agents and obtains a verifiable credential with a request for access. The access request is submitted to the IoT exchange hub. The IoT exchange hub either enforces the access request itself if the devices do not have enough resources or submits the verifiable credential with the access request to the devices for them to enforce access. The IoT access customer agent, IoT device owner agent, and IoT exchange hub similarly identify themselves and prove authentication using DIDs.

摘要: The techniques described in this disclosure provide resilient and reactive on-demand Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) mitigation services using an exchange. For example, an exchange comprises a first virtual network for switching mixed traffic (including dirty (DDoS) traffic and clean (non-DDoS) traffic)) from one or more networks to one or more DDoS scrubbing centers; and a second virtual network for switching the clean traffic from the one or more DDoS scrubbing centers to the one or more networks, wherein the exchange is configured to receive the mixed traffic from the one or more networks and switch, using the first virtual network, the mixed traffic to a selected DDoS scrubbing center of the one or more DDoS scrubbing centers, and wherein the exchange is configured to receive the clean traffic from the selected DDoS scrubbing center and switch, using the second virtual network, the clean traffic to the one or more networks.

摘要: Techniques for tenant-driven dynamic resource allocation in network functions virtualization infrastructure (NFVI). In one example, an orchestration system is operated by a data center provider for a data center and that orchestration system comprises processing circuitry coupled to a memory; logic stored in the memory and configured for execution by the processing circuitry, wherein the logic is operative to: compute an aggregate bandwidth for a plurality of flows associated with a tenant of the data center provider and processed by a virtual network function, assigned to the tenant, executing on a server of the data center; and modify, based on the aggregate bandwidth, an allocation of compute resources of the server executing the virtual network function.

摘要: In one example, a method comprises receiving, by a computing device, configuration data defining: an external virtual domain for a network function, the external virtual domain connected to a public network and managed by a provider for the computing device; a virtual domain for the network function, the virtual domain separate from the external virtual domain, configured with a secure tunnel interface, connected to a customer network, and managed by a customer of the provider for the computing device; forwarding, by the external virtual domain implementing a route-based virtual private network, encrypted network traffic, received from the public network via a secure tunnel, to the secure tunnel interface configured in the virtual domain; decrypting, by the virtual domain, the encrypted network traffic to generate network traffic; and forwarding, by the virtual domain, the network traffic to the customer network.

摘要: This disclosure describes techniques for verifying virtualized network functions (VNFs) using Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs). For example, a system includes an orchestrator configured to obtain, using a Decentralized Identifier (DID) that is associated with a virtualized network function (VNF) image for a VNF, a DID document associated with the DID, verify, based on the DID document associated with the DID, the VNF image, and deploy the VNF image as a VNF instance on a Network Functions Virtualization infrastructure (NFVi). The system also includes one or more consensus networks that store the DID document associated with the VNF image in a distributed ledger.

摘要: Techniques for virtualized network functions (VNFs) that provide for domain isolation of networks coupled to the VNF are described. A virtual network function (VNF) includes a cloud virtual domain coupling the VNF to a cloud service, a management virtual domain coupling the VNF to a management service, and an external virtual domain having a public Internet Protocol (IP) address. The external virtual domain receives an authentication request providing access credentials for a VNF customer from a cloud client device, provides the authentication request to the management service via the management virtual domain, receives an authentication response from the management service, and, in response to determining that the VNF customer access credentials are valid, initiates application of a policy that allows the cloud client device to configure the cloud virtual domain or the cloud service and disallows configuration of the external virtual domain and the management virtual domain.
