Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining whether communications are encrypted, determining a communication type for the communications according to sensitivity criteria, encrypting the communications according to the communication type to generate encrypted communications, and transmitting to a second network device the encrypted communications. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a network device of a neighborhood network that determines that data is directed to a group of recipient devices positioned in a service area of the neighborhood network, determines a second network device according to a neighborhood routing scheme that limits delivery of the data to recipient devices within the service area, and transmits the data. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, generating first traffic for transmitting along a network path to a recipient device and transmitting the first traffic along the network path to remove traffic patterns associated with a premises. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a first network device receiving from a second network device a software, the first network device adjusting operations at the first network device according to the software, the first network device providing a digital signature to the software to generate an adjusted software where the digital signature indicates that the first network device has received the software, and the first network device transmitting, to a third network device, the adjusted software. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a network device that accesses internet protocol addresses associated with a group of end point devices where the network device is a closest network device to the group of end point devices, and transmitting data to another network device responsive to a determination that an internet protocol address associated with the data from an end point device is one of the internet protocol addresses associated with the group of end point devices. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving, from a second waveguide system, electromagnetic waves at a physical interface of a transmission medium that propagate without utilizing an electrical return path where the electromagnetic waves are guided by the transmission medium and where the electromagnetic waves have a non-optical frequency range, and authenticating the second waveguide system according to an authentication protocol based on authentication information contained in the electromagnetic waves. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, accessing a profile including an expected fingerprint of expected parameters for received signals associated with a network path comprising a wired connection between network devices, comparing a fingerprint with the expected fingerprint where the fingerprint is generated from parameters measured from a signal, and authenticating a network device along the network path associated with the transmitting of the signal according to the comparing. Other embodiments are disclosed.
