    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to consumption monitoring device and method for changing a client for its use of a networked resource. The consumption monitoring device may receive information regarding an out-of-band (OOB) performance parameter from a manageability controller corresponding to a networked resource subscribed by the client. The consumption monitoring device may determine a resource consumption metric corresponding to the networked resource for the client based at least on the information regarding the OOB performance parameter received from the manageability controller. The client may be charged based on the resource consumption metric.

    Abstract: Some examples relate to controlling network traffic pertaining to a domain name based on a Domain Name System-Internet Protocol address (DNS-IP) mapping, An example includes receiving, in a cloud computing system, a local DNS-IP mapping for a domain name from respective Access Points (APs) in a virtual local area network (VLAN) along with geographical information of respective APs; generating a global DNS-IP mapping database comprising the local DNS-IP mapping for the domain name received from respective APs in the VLAN along with geographical information of respective APs, in the cloud computing system; and determining appropriate APs to distribute the global DNS-IP mapping, based on location information of respective APs.

    Abstract: Systems are methods are described which allow for “zero-touch” provisioning (ZTP) to be used to seamlessly bring up devices such as Gateways/Access Points/Switches or any other networking devices connected over different uplink types such as aggregated links (Static LAG, LACP), trunk ports, and the like. Provisioning is adapted specifically for trunk and/or LACP ports in order to maintain the automation and optimization benefits typically provided by ZTP. A method can include transmitting a discover message, and receiving a response message based on the discover message. Then, determining whether a pre-defined extension is included in the response message that indicates a port type and a virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration. Automatic configuration of one or more ports and a VLAN can be performed as indicated by the pre-defined extension. Thus, ZTP can be restarted in accordance with the configuration of the network device.

    Abstract: Composable computing architectures with an interconnection fabric to provide high availability and fault tolerance are described. An interconnection fabric routes packets between compute resources, memory resources, and input/output (I/O) resources. A fabric manager is coupled with the interconnection fabric to receive an I/O or memory requirement for a compute workload for a host device, and to map individual I/O or memory resources from the plurality of I/O resources to individual compute resources from the plurality of compute resource and to dynamically map individual I/O resources from the plurality of I/O resources based on received resource requests.

    Abstract: One embodiment can provide a method and a system for performing multiple radio frequency allocation. During operation, the system including a controller can receive, a Wi-Fi channel allocation and a filter bank configuration associated with a Wi-Fi radio transceiver. The system can determine one or more Internet of things (IoT) radio transceivers operating with the Wi-Fi radio transceiver. For a respective IoT radio transceiver, the system can perform the following operations: determining a set of scores based on a set of constraints associated with an application type for the IoT radio transceiver; and computing a weighted average score based on the set of scores; and determining a channel allocation for the IoT radio transceiver based on the weighted average score and the Wi-Fi channel allocation.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to a method comprising receiving a data packet originating from a first device and intended for a second device, wherein the first device and the first access device belong to a first branch of a Wide Area Network (WAN) using a MPLS overlay and the second device belongs to a second branch of the WAN. The method includes encapsulating the data packet in VXLAN including a VXLAN label identifying a role type and transmitting the data packet to a first core device. The method includes determining an MPLS label corresponding to the role type and transmitting the data packet over the MPLS overlay to a second core device belonging to the second branch of the WAN. The method includes translating the MPLS label into the VXLAN label and transmitting the data packet including the VXLAN label to a second access device for an enforcement action.

    Abstract: Some examples relate to selection of a rendezvous point in an IP multicast network managing multicast group traffic. An example includes transmitting, from a controller in a cloud computing system, messages to a source device and a host device in an IP multicast-capable network, which may include two peer network devices that are virtualized to function as one virtual device. Based on the response to the messages, the controller may determine that the source device is present in OSI layer 3 and the host device is present in OSI layer 2. The controller may determine that the peer network are located downstream in relation to the determined layer of the source device. The controller may select a non-peer network device as a rendezvous point in the IP multicast-capable network. Further to the selection, the controller may synchronize an active-active configuration between the peer network devices.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to a host electronic device and a method of establishing a thermal contact with a removable electronic device by a cooling component of the host electronic device. The host electronic device includes a housing, the cooling component, and a plurality of flexible arms. The cooling component is movably coupled to the housing. The plurality of flexible arms extend towards an internal cavity of the housing to hold the cooling component in a first position (retracted position). Further, the plurality of flexible arms are displaceable from the internal cavity by a movement of the removable electronic device into the host electronic device, to allow the cooling component to drop down to a second position (extended position) for establishing the thermal contact with a heat generating component of the removable electronic device.
