    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for auto-configuring a network communication port such as an Ethernet port to which a network device is connected in a manner that eliminates or otherwise dramatically mitigates the manual effort required for port configuration, while at the same time, ensuring that network security is maintained by authenticating the device during the auto-configuration process. Various auto-configuration processes are described that include varying levels of verification processing to ensure that the network device connected to the port to be configured is a device that is authorized to connect to the network. In this manner, the threat of device spoofing is eliminated or otherwise substantially reduced. Auto-configuration of network ports in connection with switching a known network device to a new port or connecting a previously unknown network device to a network port are described.

    Abstract: A network controller may include a memory and a processor. The memory may include instructions executable by the processor to receive a message from an access point. The message may comprise an interference event detected on a particular channel, wherein the particular channel is part of a particular channel list associated with the access point and stored at the network controller in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The memory may further include instructions executable to remove the particular channel from the particular channel list associated with the access point. The memory may further include instructions executable to determine a channel plan for a plurality of access points in the WLAN based on a corresponding plurality of channel lists including the particular channel list and deploy the channel plan to the plurality of access points.

    Abstract: A method related to selecting a channel bandwidth may include partitioning the plurality of networks into a plurality (P) of local radio environments and identifying, for the P local radio environments, an available channel bandwidth set comprising a plurality of channel bandwidth values. The method may also relate to determining whether the plurality of channel bandwidth values provide a frequency reuse distance that is greater than a threshold frequency reuse distance, wherein the frequency reuse distance is estimated based at least on the pathloss measurement and, based on a determination that at least one of the plurality of channel bandwidth values provides the frequency reuse distance that is greater than the threshold frequency reuse distance, configuring a channel plan for the plurality of networks with a channel bandwidth value from the at least one of the plurality of channel bandwidth values.

    Abstract: A system for facilitating auto-formation of link aggregations is provided. During operation, the system can obtain information associated with connectivity between a first device and a second device. The system can remotely provide network configurations to the first and second devices via a network. If the connectivity includes a plurality of links, the system can identify a subset of links of the plurality of links that can be configured as a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) based on a set of grouping criteria for selecting a respective link for the LAG. The system can then generate respective configuration commands executable at the first and second devices for generating the LAG based on the information associated with connectivity. Subsequently, the system can send the respective configuration commands to the first and second devices. The configuration commands can facilitate the formation of the LAG at the first and second devices.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a dynamic radar detection threshold for stateful dynamic frequency selection (DFS). An embodiment of a storage medium includes instructions to operations including estimate a duty time of transmission of wireless signals by an access point, the access point to provide Wi-Fi communication, the wireless signals being communicated on a DFS channel of the access point, adapt, based at least in part on the duty time of transmission, a threshold of radar signals to indicate detection of a radar signal at the access point on the DFS channel, and perform analysis of received wireless signals on the DFS channel at the access point to detect the radar signal using the adapted threshold of radar signals.

    Abstract: A method of authorizing an access point includes receiving a first transmission signal from a first access point. The first transmission signal comprises identifying information of the first access point that includes a first token. The method includes receiving a second transmission signal from a client device. The second transmission signal includes a second token that is received by the client device from an un-provisioned access point. When a match is determined between the first token and the second token, the first access point is identified as the un-provisioned access point. The method includes transmitting the identifying information of the first access point and a request to the client device to authorize the un-provisioned access point. The method includes receiving a third transmission signal from the client device that includes an authorization verification of the un-provisioned access point that authorities the un-provisioned access point to connect to a cloud-managed network.
