Abstract: In one embodiment, a device of a software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) predicts characteristics of a new traffic flow to be admitted to the SD-WAN, based on a set of initial packets of the flow. The device predicts an impact of admitting the flow to the SD-WAN, based in part on extrinsic or exogenous data regarding the SD-WAN. The device admits the flow to the SD-WAN, based on the predicted impact. The supervisory device uses reinforcement learning to adjust one or more call admission control (CAC) parameters of the SD-WAN, based on captured telemetry data regarding the admitted flow.

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: Systems and methods may include sending, to a network registrar, an extended duplicate address request (EDAR) message including a first nonce generated by a host computing device, and receiving, from the network registrar, an extended duplicate address confirmation (EDAC) message including a second nonce, the second nonce being signed by the network registrar via a private key of a first public key infrastructure (PM) key pair of the network registrar via a first signature. The method further includes sending a first neighbor advertisement (NA) message to the host computing device including the second nonce. The second nonce and the private key of the network registrar verifies the first signature from the network registrar, the verification of the first signature indicating that the router is not impersonating the network.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device configures a plurality of subinterfaces for each of a plurality of physical ports of a software defined network (SDN). The device allocates a fixed amount of bandwidth to each of the subinterfaces. The device forms a plurality of midlays for the SDN by assigning subsets of the plurality of subinterfaces to each of the midlays. The device assigns a network slice to one or more of the midlays, based on a bandwidth requirement of the network slice.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a service receives a feature availability report indicative of which telemetry variables are available at a device in a network and resource costs associated with data features that the device could compute from the telemetry variables. The service selects at least a subset of the data features for input to a machine learning model, based on their associated resource costs and on their respective impacts on one or more performance metrics for the machine learning model. The service trains the machine learning model to evaluate the selected data features. The service sends the trained machine learning model to the device. The device computes the selected data features from the telemetry variables available at the device and uses the computed data features as input to the machine learning model.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory device for a software defined networking (SDN) fabric predicts characteristics of a new traffic flow to be admitted to the fabric, based on a set of initial packets of the flow. The supervisory device predicts an impact of admitting the flow to the SDN fabric, using a heatmap-based saturation model for the SDN fabric. The supervisory device admits the flow to the SDN fabric, based on the predicted impact. The supervisory device uses reinforcement learning to adjust one or more call admission control (CAC) parameters of the SDN fabric, based on captured telemetry data regarding the admitted flow.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory service receives a registration message broadcast by a first vehicle and captured by a RSU in the network of RSUs. The supervisory service registers the first vehicle by validating a signature of the registration message without registering a media access control (MAC) address of the first vehicle and without causing to send a registration response to the first vehicle. The supervisory service receives a message broadcast by a second vehicle addressed to the first vehicle and captured by at least one RSU in the network of RSUs. The supervisory service selects one or more RSUs in the network of RSUs to re-broadcast the message. The supervisory service controls the one or more RSUs to re-broadcast the message.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a first actuator in a network of sensors and actuators executes a walker agent configured to adjust an actuation setting of the first actuator. The actuation setting controls an area of coverage of the first actuator when actuated. The executing agent on the first actuator receives one or more sensor measurements from one or more of the sensors that are in communication range of the first actuator. The executing agent also controls, based on the received one or more sensor measurements, the area of coverage of the first actuator by adjusting its actuation setting, in an attempt to optimize coverage of the sensors in the network by the areas of coverage of the actuators. The first actuator unloads the executing walker agent after adjusting the actuation setting of the first actuator and propagates the agent to another one of the actuators in the network for execution.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives a query walker agent configured to query information from a distributed set of devices in the network based on a query. The device executes the query walker agent to identify the query. The device updates state information of the executing query walker agent using local information from the device and based on the query. The device unloads the executing query walker agent after updating the state information. The device propagates the query walker agent with the updated state information to one or more of the distributed set of devices in the network, when the updated state information does not fully answer the query.
