Abstract:
An apparatus and method is disclosed for segment routing (SR) over label distribution protocol (LDP). In one embodiment, the method includes a node receiving a packet with an attached segment ID. In response, the node may attach a label to the packet. Thereafter, the node may forward the packet with the attached label and segment ID to another node via a label switched path (LSP).
Abstract:
Presented herein is a Client Network Information Service (CNIS). The CNIS is configured to determine client network information for a communication from a client to at least one application running in a cloud infrastructure environment. The client network information is delivered to instances of the application and to a router associated with the application in order to enable the application to adjust service for the client.

Abstract:
A method provided in a network including edge devices to collect data from data producers connected to the edge devices and to communicate with cloud-based prosumers connected with the edge devices. Data analytics tasks are identified. The data analytics tasks are used to process data collected from a data producer among the data producers to produce a result for consumption by one or more of the cloud-based prosumers. For each data analytics task it is determined whether a computational complexity of the data analytics task is less than or equal to a predetermined computational complexity. Each data analytics task determined to have a computational complexity less than or equal to the predetermined computational complexity is assigned to an edge device among the edge devices. Each data analytics task determined to have a computational complexity that exceeds the predetermined computational complexity is assigned to a prosumer among the prosumers.

Abstract:
Various systems and methods for determining whether to allow or continue to allow access to a protected data asset are disclosed herein. For example, one method involves receiving a request to access a protected data asset, wherein the request is received from a first user device; determining whether to grant access to the protected data asset, wherein the determining comprises evaluating one or more criteria associated with the first user device, and the criteria comprises first information associated with a first policy constraint; and in response to a determination that access to the protected data asset is to be granted, granting access to the protected data asset.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure pertain to activating in-band OAM based on a triggering event. Aspects of the embodiments are directed to receiving a first notification indicating a problem in a network; triggering a data-collection feature on one or more nodes in the network for subsequent packets that traverse the one or more nodes; evaluating a subsequent packet that includes data augmented by the data collection feature; and determining the problem in the network based on the data augmented to the subsequent packet.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for forwarding packets through a network domain that contains nodes that are label distribution protocol (LDP) enabled and nodes that are segment routing (SR) enabled. In one embodiment, the method may include a network node receiving a packet with a label attached thereto. The node swaps the label with a segment identifier (ID). The node then forwards the packet to an SR node. In another embodiment, the method may include a network node receiving a packet with a segment ID attached thereto. The node swaps the segment ID with a label. The node then forwards the packet to an LDP enabled node.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a controller device in a computer network domain learns border gateway protocol (BGP) egress peering segments from one or more border routers of the domain, and determines a selected flow to segment route via a particular egress peering segment, the selected flow from a given routing device within the domain to a given destination of a remote domain. As such, the controller device may then instruct the given routing device to segment route the selected flow via the particular egress peering segment. In another embodiment, an egress border router shares its BGP egress peering segments, and receives a flow to segment route. The egress border router may determine, from a segment route contained within the flow, to which particular egress peering segment of the border router to segment route the flow, and forwards the flow out of the domain via the particular egress peering segment.
