    Abstract: A network device obtains measurement data for one or more device attributes or environmental factors, and compares the measurement data to respective ranges specified for the device attributes or the environmental factors. Different ranges for the device attributes or the environmental factors are associated with different operating regions (OREs) classified for the device. The operating state of the network device corresponds to a first ORE of the different OREs, and various tasks performed by the device in the operating state are based on configurations specified by the first ORE. Based on comparing the measurement data, the network device identifies a second ORE that includes ranges for the device attributes or the environmental factors that match the measurement data. The network device transitions the operating state to correspond to the second ORE, and adjusting the tasks performed by the device according to configurations specified by the second ORE.

    Abstract: A packet to be forwarded over a computer network to a destination is received. A group of multiple network paths is available to forward to the packet to the destination. One or more path selection factors are determined to be used to identify a specific network load balancing algorithm to select a specific network path from the group of multiple network paths. The one or more path selection factors include at least one path selection factor determined based at least in part on a dynamic state of the computer network or a network node in the computer network. In response to selecting, by the specific network load balancing algorithm, the specific network path from among the group of multiple network paths, the packet is forwarded over the specific network path.

    Abstract: Link data is stored in a distributed link descriptor memory (“DLDM”) including memory instances storing protocol data unit (“PDU”) link descriptors (“PLDs”) or cell link descriptors (“CLDs”). Responsive to receiving a request for buffering a current transfer data unit (“TDU”) in a current PDU, a current PLD is accessed in a first memory instance in the DLDM. It is determined whether any data field designated to store address information in connection with a TDU is currently unoccupied within the current PLD. If no data field designated to store address information in connection with a TDU is currently unoccupied within the current PLD, a current CLD is accessed in a second memory instance in the plurality of memory instances of the same DLDM. Current address information in connection with the current TDU is stored in an address data field within the current CLD.
