    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for monitoring a connection state between a primary DHCP server and a secondary DHCP server, determining that a connection between the primary DHCP server and the secondary DHCP server has not been established within a first timeframe, establishing a partner-down operation state at one or more of the primary DHCP server and secondary DHCP server, and, during an established partner-down operation state, issuing/allocating short-term network address leases from one of the primary DHCP servers or secondary DHCP servers. Short-term network leases of the present disclosure may have a duration of between 1 second and 5 minutes.

    Abstract: An example branch gateway (BG) of a local area network (LAN) includes processing circuitry and a memory. The memory includes instructions that cause the BG to determine that a network traffic load of the BG is greater than that of another BG. The instructions further cause the BG to determine that a first network traffic load skew between the BG and the other BG is greater than a first threshold. The instructions further cause the BG to select a first virtual local area network (VLAN) of a set of VLANs of the LAN, wherein network traffic of client devices of the first VLAN is routed through the BG based on a master role of the first VLAN being assigned to the BG. The instructions further cause the BG to transmit a message to the other BG that assigns the master role of the first VLAN to the other BG.
