Abstract:
An example method is provided in one example embodiment and may include gathering current wireless local area network (WLAN) data for a WLAN, wherein the WLAN data comprises network data, Radio Frequency (RF) data, and transmission data for a plurality of user equipment (UE) operating within the WLAN; generating a plurality of color maps; merging the plurality of color maps to generate a combined color map; and calculating a predicted application score for at least one UE operating within the WLAN based, at least in part, on application of the combined color map to a trained statistical model that represents linking relationships between the WLAN data gathered for the WLAN and a plurality of possible application scores for the plurality of UE. The plurality of color maps can include an RF color map, a transmission color map, and a Quality of Service color map.
Abstract:
Methods, logic, apparatus, and systems are provided to support cross cluster directory number (DN) extension mobility (EM) using dynamic network distributed dial-peer updates in a communication networks, which includes a plurality of clusters or systems and each of the plurality of clusters including a call control agent (CCA). Identification data corresponding to an identity of an associated user is received into a first cluster of a multiple cluster telecommunication network. A directory number and associated first telecommunication device corresponding to the user are registered with a first call control agent of the first cluster in accordance with received identification data. Registration data corresponding to the registered directory number is communicated to at least a second cluster of the telecommunications network. An incoming connection request associated with the registered directory number is routed directly to the first CCA without redirection to any other CCAs within the multiple cluster telecommunication network.
Abstract:
A system and method are provided for generating a pairwise transient key security association (PTKSA) by: providing a first media access control (MAC) address that is shared by multiple access points (APs), the first MAC address corresponding to an infrastructure comprising the multiple APs, and each AP of the multiple APs having a respective AP MAC address; providing a second MAC address to a station (STA); and establishing a secure link between the STA and the infrastructure using the first MAC address and the second MAC address to derive a pairwise transit key (PTK) for the secure link, wherein the secure link is between the STA and the multiple APs.
Abstract:
Backscatter Device (BKD) onboarding may be provided. BKD onboarding may begin with an AP receiving an identifier associated with a BKD. The AP may determine to onboard the BKD and transmit to the BKD an onboarding excitation signal to request data from a memory bank of the BKD. The AP may then receive a response to the onboarding excitation signal from the BKD. The AP may verify the BKD is valid based on the identifier and the response. Finally, the AP may onboard the BKD based on verifying the BKD is valid.
Abstract:
Group identity assignment and policy enforcement may be provided. A User Defined Network Identifier (UDN ID) defining a group of client devices may be received. Next, a client identifier (ID) associated with a source client device that is associated with the group of client devices may be received. The UDN ID and the client ID may be encoded in an Extended Local Identifier (ELI) Media Access Control (MAC) address associated with the source client device. A source MAC address of a packet received from the source client device may then be substituted with the ELI MAC address. Then the packet may be forwarded.
