    Abstract: Enhanced network level information for power control is described. The enhanced network level information enables network connected electronic devices to enter and exit standby modes based on system level information. The network level information also enables the use of a respective network connected device in a seamless manner from the perspective of the user, while decreasing the amount of energy consumed by the device when not in active operation. In some examples, a Network Monitoring Application (NMA) classifies electronic devices into power control categories, monitors a physical environment associated with the plurality of connected electronic devices, and provides a power control signal to the various electronic devices upon detection of a change in the physical environment.

    Abstract: An epoch scheme for Station (STA) privacy and, specifically, a structured Media Access Control (MAC) address rotation schedule for STAs may be provided. Providing an epoch scheme for STA privacy can include determining epoch parameters for a STA, the epoch parameters comprising a minimum epoch period duration and a maximum epoch period duration. The epoch parameters are sent to the STA, wherein the STA is operable to rotate a MAC address each epoch period at a time between the minimum epoch period duration and the maximum epoch period duration. A mapping of the STA and the MAC address can be updated each epoch period.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for detecting deviations from an expected power profile of a device. The method comprises: retrieving a manufacturer usage description (MUD) associated with the device. The MUD includes a power profile associated with the device. An expected power consumption parameter can be determined from the power profile. The method may further comprise monitoring an actual power consumption parameter of the device and comparing the expected power consumption parameter to the actual power consumption parameter. The method may further comprise determining a deviation between the power consumption parameter and the expected power consumption indicated in the power profile, and outputting a notification when the deviation is equal to or greater than a threshold value.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device registers with a controller for a mesh of overhead access points. The device receives, from the controller, a communication schedule for the device. The device generates a message to be sent to the mesh of overhead access points. The device transmits, according to the communication schedule, the message as a beam cone directed substantially upward relative to the device towards the mesh of overhead access points. The message is received and relayed by one or more particular access points in the mesh without the device previously performing a wireless association exchange with those one or more particular access points.

    Abstract: A wireless client device communicates, to an access point over a secure channel, a mapping of a dynamic device address to a stable device address. By communicating the mapping, the access point is able to determine that packets received from two different device addresses originate from a common device. The access point is then able to maintain an association between the originating device and other network resources assigned or allocated to the originating device, such as IP addresses or infrastructure station address, which is used to identify the originating device to other devices outside the network in some embodiments.

    Abstract: A method for establishing a VPN with a client device is provided. In the method, an AP can receive an access request directed to an OpenRoaming (OR) Service Set Identifier (SSID) from the client device. The AP can send the access request to an OR connector. In response to the access request, the AP may receive an access response from the OR connector. The access response can include an attribute indicating an address to connect to a company Virtual Private Network (VPN) headend. The AP may then use the attribute to establish the VPN connection with the company VPN headend.
