Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network receives metrics regarding a node in the network. The device uses the metrics as input to a machine learning model. The device determines, using the machine learning model and based on the metrics, an indication of abnormality of the node oscillating between using a plurality of different routing parents in the network. The device provides a results notification based on the indication of abnormality of the node oscillating between using the plurality of different routing parents.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a wireless network receives a request from a node in the network requesting electrical power. The device determines one or more power transmission parameters for the node. The device determines a power transmission schedule for the node. The device sends wireless network communications to the node in response to the request and based on the determined one or more power transmission parameters and transmission schedule for the node. The node converts the wireless network communications into stored electrical power.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a supervisory device in a network forms a virtual access point (VAP) for a node in the network. A set of access points (APs) in the network are mapped to the VAP as part of a VAP mapping and the node treats the APs in the VAP mapping as a single AP for purposes of communicating with the network. The supervisory device receives measurements from the APs in the VAP mapping regarding communications associated with the node. The supervisory device identifies a movement of the node based on the received measurements from the APs in the VAP mapping. The supervisory device adjusts the set of APs in the VAP mapping based on the identified movement of the node.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a supervisory device in a network assigns different access points in the network to different access point groupings. Each of the different access point groupings uses a different network path to communicate with a given endpoint in the network. The supervisory device selects at least one of the access points in each of the different access point groupings for mapping to a virtual access point (VAP) for a node in the network as part of a VAP mapping. The supervisory device instructs the selected access points to form a VAP for the node. The node treats the access points in the VAP mapping as a single access point for purposes of communicating with the network.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network receives a notification from a neighbor of the device indicative of a child node of the device requesting a parent change from the device to the neighbor. The device updates an existing routing path from the device to the child node to be routed through the neighbor, in response to receiving the notification from the neighbor. The device receives an instruction to remove the updated routing path from the device to the child node through the neighbor. The device removes the updated routing path from the device to the child node, in response to receiving the instruction to remove the updated routing path.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a wireless network receives a request from a node in the network requesting electrical power. The device determines one or more power transmission parameters for the node. The device determines a power transmission schedule for the node. The device sends wireless network communications to the node in response to the request and based on the determined one or more power transmission parameters and transmission schedule for the node. The node converts the wireless network communications into stored electrical power.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network determines whether a destination address of a packet received by the device is within a neighbor discovery (ND) cache of the device. The device determines whether the destination address is not in a set of addresses used to generate an address lookup array or possibly in the set of addresses used to generate the address lookup array, in response to determining that the destination address of the packet is not within the ND cache. The device performs address resolution for the destination address of the packet, in response to determining that the destination address of the packet is possibly in the set of addresses used to generate the address lookup array.
