Abstract: Methods and systems proxy address resolution protocol processing in a distributive local area network is described. The method for proxy address resolution protocol processing includes sending, by a first subscriber device, an address resolution protocol processing broadcast to obtain a second subscriber device address, wherein the first subscriber device and the second subscriber device are in isolated routing prefix domains within a routing prefix, receiving, by the first subscriber device from a gateway, a second subscriber device proxy address for the second subscriber device, and communicating, between the first subscriber device and the second subscriber device via the gateway, using the second subscriber device proxy address.

Abstract: A method for collecting duplicated packets from a plurality of nodes provided on a network includes receiving a traffic profile which includes one or more parameters of packets which are to be captured by the plurality of nodes. The method further includes transmitting the traffic profile to each of the plurality of nodes provided on the network and receiving duplicated packets from the plurality of nodes. The duplicated packets correspond to packets which have been duplicated from packets which are captured by the plurality of nodes and satisfy the traffic profile.

Abstract: Methods and systems for flexible nodal layer 3 overlay of layer 2 traffic is described. A network includes an access device for receiving layer 2 traffic from user devices, a packet inspection device for inspecting the layer 2 traffic, and a layer 3 tunnel instantiation device for encapsulating the layer 2 traffic into layer 3 traffic. The layer 3 tunnel instantiation device provides a first tunnel endpoint for a layer 3 tunnel, which is connected to a second tunnel endpoint instantiated at a network gateway. The layer 3 tunnel instantiation device establishes a moveable demarcation between a layer 2 domain and a layer 3 domain with respect to the packet inspection device, where the access device and the packet inspection device operate in the layer 2 domain. The layer 3 traffic is transmitted over the layer 3 tunnel.
