Abstract:
Techniques for providing network traffic security in a virtualized environment are described. A threat aware controller uses a threat feed provided by a threat intelligence service to establish a threat detection engine on virtual switches. The threat aware controller and threat detection engine work together to detect any anomalous or malicious behavior of network traffic on the virtual switch and established virtual network functions to quickly detect, verify, and isolate network threats.

Abstract:
Secure network segmentation using logical subnet segments is described. A single network segment or subnet provided by a third party is mapped into multiple layer-3 virtual or logical segments without requiring separate subnets. This mapping is accomplished by using virtual routing functions (VRFs) per logical subnet segment while retaining a single subnet across the segments. The logical subnet segments interact with the single network segment provided by the third party (ISP). The layer-3 VRF instances are created without the need for separate IP subnet pools per layer-3 segment. Each VRF instance for the various logical subnet segments is mapped to an identifier and tag.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method for the prioritized transmission of messages includes monitoring a network link of a mobile device to determine performance characteristics of the network link, establishing a network association between the mobile device and a routing network node, receiving a connection request from an application that is directed to a connection between the mobile device and a destination server, determining a relative priority of the connection, mapping the connection to a stream of the network association that is associated with the relative priority of the connection and identifies the destination server, and transmitting messages for the stream to the routing network node interlaced with messages of other streams of the network association based on the performance characteristics of the network link and the relative priority associated with the stream in comparison to relative priorities associated with the other streams of the network association.
