    Abstract: A method is performed at one or more entities configured to configure and provide assurance for a service enabled on a network. The service is configured as a collection of subservices on network devices of the network. A definition of the service is decomposed into a subservice dependency graph that indicates the subservices and dependencies between the subservices that collectively implement the service. Based on the subservice dependency graph, the subservices are configured to record and report subservice metrics indicative of subservice health states of the subservices. The subservice metrics are obtained from the subservices, and the subservice health states of the subservices are determined based on the subservice metrics. A health state of the service is determined based on the subservice health states. One or more of the subservices are reconfigured based on the health state of the service.

    Abstract: A method for routing a request for content from a content provider through an IPv6 network is described, the IPv6 network being an information centric network (ICN) in which content is directly addressed using at least a portion of an IPv6 address. The method includes receiving, at an IPv6 network, a request for content, determining that the request does not comprise an ICN address. The method further includes intercepting the request, and translating the request into an IPv6 address in which at least a portion of the address is directed to or associated with the piece of content. Systems and methods described herein address problems arising from the interaction between IP and ICN networking models.

    Abstract: A system and methods are provided for verifying proof of transit of network traffic through a plurality of network nodes in a network. In one embodiment, each network node reads a first value and a second value from in-band metadata of packet, and generates, using a cryptographic key that is unique to each respective network node, an encryption result based on the first value. An updated second value is generated based on the second value read from the packet and the encryption result. Each network node writes the updated second value to the in-band metadata of the packet, and forwards the packet in the network. In another embodiment, a secret sharing scheme is employed by each network node computes a portion of verification information using a unique share of a secret and based on the packet specific information.

    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms to enable a Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) Echo function to be used for IP multi-hop paths using IP encapsulation. A source device may encapsulate one or more BFD Echo packets as payloads in IP packets. The resulting IP packets may then be sent from a source device to a destination device over a multi-hop path such that one or more intermediary devices forward the IP packets onto the destination device. Upon receiving the IP packets, the destination device may echo back the one or more BFD Echo packets in the forwarding plane to indicate connectivity of the forwarding path between the devices. However, if the BFD Echo packets are not echoed back to the source device, the source device may determine that the multi-hop path has experienced a fault, and that traffic is to be rerouted through other paths.

    Abstract: Content distribution system cache management may be provided. First, a sync packet may be received by a cache server from a first server. The sync packet may include a list indicating a cache server where a chunk is to be stored and the address for the chunk. Next, an address for the chunk may be obtained by the cache server by parsing the sync packet. The cache server may then determine that the chunk is not stored on the cache server by using the address for the chunk. Next, in response to determining that the chunk is not stored on the cache server, a connection may be opened between the first server and the cache server. The cache server may then receive the chunk over the connection and cache the chunk on the cache server.
