    Abstract: Systems, methods, and software to implement network configuration updates in a computing network. In one implementation, a method includes identifying a threat related to an internet protocol (IP) address, wherein the IP address corresponds to a computing node in the computing network. After identifying the threat, the method further includes generates one or more routing update packets that indicate a block request for at least the IP address. Once generated, the method also provides communicating the one or more routing update packets to one or more routers in the computing network.

    Abstract: Techniques for dynamically provisioning and/or deprovisioning physical hosts in a hyperconverged infrastructure based on cluster priority in hyperconverged infrastructures are disclosed. In one embodiment, a user maps physical hosts in a host pool to respective clusters in the hyperconverged infrastructure. Further the user sets one or more resource utilization threshold limits for each cluster by the user. A management cluster then periodically obtains resource utilization data at a cluster level for each cluster. The management cluster then dynamically provisions and/or deprovisions one or more physical hosts to one or more clusters in the hyperconverged infrastructure using the mapped physical hosts in the host pool based on the obtained resource utilization data and the set one or more resource utilization threshold limits.
