    摘要: In one embodiment, a device in a computer network receives a particular packet associated with a transmission attempts value, the associated transmission attempts value indicative of a first number of times a transmitter has attempted to transmit the particular packet. In response, the device increases by one a stored successful attempts value stored at the device, the stored successful attempts value indicative of a second number of times the device has received the same particular packet. As such, a reachability rate of a link from the transmitter to the device may be determined based on comparing the associated transmission attempts value to the stored successful attempts value.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a quality of one or more links of a particular node in a communication network may be determined, and then whether the quality of the one or more links is below a threshold may also be determined. In response to determining that the quality of at least one of the one or more links is above the threshold, a select one of the at least one of the one or more links with quality above the threshold may be utilized for communication with the particular node. Conversely, in response to determining that the quality of each of the one or more links is below the threshold, multi-path forwarding over a plurality of links of the particular node may be utilized for communication with the particular node.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a security device receives one or more first unique identifications of packets sent by a first device to a second device for which a corresponding acknowledgment was purportedly returned by the second device to the first device. The security device also receives one or more second unique identifications of packets received by the second device from the first device and acknowledged by the second device to the first device. By comparing the first and second unique identifications, the security device may then determine whether acknowledgments received by the first device were truly returned from the second device based on whether the first and second unique identifications exactly match.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a node in a computer network detects a misbehaving node in the computer network based on the misbehaving node acting in violation of one or more rules. As such, the node communicates information regarding the misbehaving node to a network management system (NMS), and then may receive isolation instructions from the NMS regarding how to isolate the misbehaving node from the computer network. Accordingly, the node may perform the isolation instructions. In another embodiment, the NMS receives the communicated information regarding the misbehaving node, and determines whether the misbehaving node should be isolated based on the communicated information. If so, then the NMS determines isolation instructions regarding how to isolate the misbehaving node from the computer network, and transmits them to one or more nodes in the computer network, accordingly.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a particular field area router (FAR), in a local computer network (e.g., a mesh network) having a plurality of FARs, advertises a common subnet prefix assigned to the local computer network into a global computer network. Each of the plurality of FARs of the local computer network is configured to accept any traffic destined to the local computer network, and a tunnel overlay is built among the plurality of FARs. Upon receiving a packet at the particular FAR destined to a particular device in the local computer network, and in response to the particular FAR not having a host route to the particular device, it forwards the packet on the tunnel overlay to another of the plurality of FARs of the local computer network.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a wireless transmitting node in a frequency hopping wireless network may determine whether a packet can be transmitted within a particular timeslot of a frequency hopping sequence based on a length of the packet. If unable to transmit the packet within the particular timeslot, the transmitting node extends the particular timeslot into a subsequent timeslot to allow transmission of the packet within the extended timeslot at a frequency associated with the particular timeslot. Once the extended timeslot ends, the transmitting node and receiving node hop frequencies into the subsequent timeslot to synchronize with the rest of the network that already hopped at the conventional rate. In another embodiment, a wireless receiving node may also extend the particular timeslot into a subsequent timeslot to allow reception of a packet that would extend beyond the particular timeslot, and may hop frequencies upon expiration of the extended timeslot.
