    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an OSPF hello message including an attestation token from a second network apparatus, determining that the attestation token is valid for the second network apparatus at a current time, establishing an adjacency to the second network apparatus in response to the determination, computing, based at least on the attestation token, a trust level for a first link from the first network apparatus to the second network apparatus and a trust level for first prefixes associated with the first link, and sending an LSA comprising the trust level for the first link and the trust level for the first prefixes to neighboring network apparatuses, where the trust level for the first link and the trust level for the prefixes are used by the network apparatuses in the network to compute a routing table of the network.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes activating a first network apparatus within a network and determining, by the first network apparatus, that a Scalable Group Tag (SGT) Exchange Protocol (SXP) is configured on the first network apparatus. The method also includes costing out the first network apparatus in response to determining that the SXP is configured on the first network apparatus. Costing out the first network apparatus prevents Internet Protocol (IP) traffic from flowing through the first network apparatus. The method further includes receiving, by the first network apparatus, IP-to-SGT bindings from an SXP speaker, receiving an end-of-exchange message from the SXP speaker, and costing in the first network apparatus in response to receiving the end-of-exchange message. Costing in the first network apparatus allows the IP traffic to flow through the first network apparatus.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, method includes receiving, by a first network apparatus, a first multicast message from a second network apparatus. The first multicast message includes attestation-capability information associated with the second network apparatus and an attestation token. The attestation token is for proving that the second network apparatus is in a known safe state. The method also includes determining, by the first network apparatus, that the attestation-capability information satisfies a pre-determined attestation capability requirement and determining, by the first network apparatus, that the attestation token is valid for the second network apparatus at a current time. The method further includes establishing, by the first network apparatus, an adjacency to the second network apparatus.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes one or more processors and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to the one or more processors. The one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media include instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to perform operations including receiving a first type-length-value (TLV) associated with a winning flexible algorithm definition (FAD) from a first element of a network. The operations also include determining a security level for the winning FAD based on the TLV. The operations further include determining a data transmission route through a plurality of elements of the network based on the security level for the winning FAD.
