    Abstract: A network management system (NMS) is configured to control roaming in a wireless network using a variable mobility threshold. For a first wireless device associated with a current location, the NMS obtains at least one performance metric of a first wireless signal received by the first wireless device at the current location from a first AP of a plurality of APs, compares the at least one parameter of the first wireless signal to at least one performance metric of a second wireless signal received by at least one other wireless device at the current location from a second AP of the plurality of APs, and triggers a roaming operation of the first wireless device from the first AP to the second AP if the comparison satisfies a mobility threshold that varies based on the at least one performance metric of the first wireless signal.

    Abstract: In general, techniques are described for performing network segmentation for container orchestration platforms. A network controller comprising a memory and processing circuitry may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may be configured to store a request, conforming to a container orchestration platform, to configure a new pod of a plurality of pods with a primary interface to communicate on a virtual network to segment a network formed by the plurality of pods. The processing circuitry may be configured to configure, responsive to the request, the new pod with the primary interface to enable communications via the virtual network.

    Abstract: A disclosed apparatus may extend hold-up times for computing devices with redundant power supply units (PSUs). For example, an apparatus may include a plurality of PSUs and a controller. In one example, the PSUs may be configured to convert power from at least one AC input into a direct current (DC) output and to provide the DC output to a computing device. In this example, the controller may be configured to detect a loss of the AC input and a failure of a first PSU included in the plurality of PSUs. The controller may also be configured to extend a hold-up time of a second PSU included in the plurality of PSUs by boosting an undervoltage lockout signal monitored by the computing device in response to detecting the loss of the AC input and the failure of the first PSU. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

    Abstract: In an example, systems and methods enable automatic implementation of intent-based security policies in a network system, such as a software-defined wide area network system, in which network segment prefixes for network segments at one or more sites are dynamically learned. A service orchestrator controller translates an intent-based security policy input by a user to a security policy for a first site. The security policy for the first site specifies a segment-specific queryable resource associated with a second site. To implement the security policy, a device associated with the first site queries the segment-specific queryable resource associated with the second site, and updates one or more forwarding tables of the device with the network segment prefixes associated with one or more network segments at the second site received in response to the query. The first site forwards network traffic to the second site based on the updated forwarding tables.

    Abstract: A network device may receive new network device software and may receive an option to wait a predetermined period of time for confirmation of installation of the new network device software. The network device may determine, based on the option, whether the confirmation of installation of the new network device software is received prior to expiration of the predetermined period of time. The network device may selectively perform an automatic rollback to previous network device software based on failing to receive the confirmation of installation of the new network device software prior to expiration of the predetermined period of time, or utilize the new network device software based on receiving the confirmation of installation of the new network device software prior to expiration of the predetermined period of time.
