    Abstract: In embodiments of the present disclosure, there is provided a solution for managing a USB connection between a USB device and a host device. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a USB management server receives, from a USB management client at a host device, USB ID information for identifying a USB device that is plugged into the host device. Whether the USB ID information is valid is determined based on an authentication policy for authenticating the USB device. If the USB ID information is valid, the USB management client is instructed to permit a connection between the USB device and the host device. Accordingly, the connection may be managed by the USB management server. Embodiments of the present disclosure present an effective way for managing USB connections in a centralized way, which provides various flexible authentication policies and requires less manual operations.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to multi-connection access points. For example, an access point can include instructions to: establish a first connection to a first controller, wherein the access point receives configuration data from the first controller to generate a first virtual access point with the first controller; and establish a second connection to a second controller, wherein the access point receives configuration data from the second controller to generate a second virtual access point with the second controller.

    Abstract: A first switch port receives a first control packet, a header having a source media access control (MAC) address of a first MAC of a first interface of a sending device and a payload containing a second MAC of a second interface of the same sending device. The first and second interfaces form a bonded interface for failover purposes on the sending device. A second switch port receives a second control packet, a header having the second MAC as its source MAC and a payload containing the first MAC. The switch associates the first and second MAC addresses as related MAC addresses associated with the bonded interface. The switch facilitates failover between the secure interfaces via multiple uplinks while maintaining the port security on the switch by allowing transmission of data from either the first or second MAC address, associated as related MAC addresses, without triggering a port security violation.

    Abstract: Systems are methods are provided for implementing load balancing of IPsec security associations (SAs) SAs between different heterogeneous cores, for example in a multiple controller systems. The balancing of IPsec SAs are performed using software implementations of IPsec offloading and/or hardware implementations of IPsec offloading. By balancing the processing functions related to orchestration of IPsec SAs between hardware (e.g., IPsec hardware accelerator) and software (e.g., IPsec software accelerator), the methods realize increased optimization, improved user experience, and enhanced product performance in networks using IPsec. For example, an IPsec session is initiated, and it is determined whether a resource limitation for a hardware-based IPsec accelerator has been reached. If the limitation for the hardware-based IPsec accelerator has been reached, processing for the IPsec SA for the initiated IPsec session is offloaded to a software-based IPsec accelerator.

    Abstract: An example access point may comprise a processing resource; and a memory resource storing machine-readable instructions to cause the processing resource to: perform a management system search using a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP); determine, in view of the management system search, whether a management system discovered is a controller; and select one of a first role within a centralized local area network and a second role within a distributed local area network based on determining whether the management system is the controller, wherein the first role within the centralized local area network is selected when the management system is the controller.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing a coexistence coordinator in an access point (AP) operating in a Internet of Things (IoT) network. The coexistence coordinator coordinates transmission of both IoT-related data from an IoT radio and WiFi data from a WiFi radio, the IoT radio and the WiFi radio coexisting in the AP. The coexistence coordinator synchronizes time between the WiFi radio and the IoT radio so that times during which IoT-related data is to be sent from the IoT radio (in accordance with Time-Division Multiple Access (TDMA) channel access method) can be determined. Operation of the WiFi radio is suspended during those times when the IoT-related data is transmitted from the IoT radio.
