Abstract: Described herein are devices, systems, methods, and processes for managing roaming actions in a wireless network. The embodiments utilize a machine learning model to generate roaming recommendations based on a plurality of roaming-related metrics. The metrics include data about the current network conditions, the station's previous roaming experiences, and the capabilities of potential roaming target candidates. The roaming recommendations can be provided to a station by an access point (AP). The station can then attempt to perform a roaming action based on the recommendations. After the attempt, the station transmits a roaming feedback to the AP, which includes data about the success or failure of the roaming action and any additional relevant data. In case the station rejects the roaming recommendations, the station may also provide a feedback indicating the rejection. The feedback is utilized to update the machine learning model, thereby improving the accuracy of future roaming recommendations.

Abstract: A first access point of a wireless network minimizes Media Access Control (MAC) address collisions in the wireless network. The first access point receives an association request from a first wireless device. The association request identifies a first MAC address of the first wireless device. The first access point determines whether a second wireless device is associated with the wireless network using the first MAC address. Responsive to a determination that the second wireless device is associated with a second access point of the wireless network, the first access point obtains a virtual MAC address for the first wireless device. The first access point translates between the first MAC address and the virtual MAC address for network traffic of the first wireless device.

Abstract: A method for teleprotection over a segment routed network comprises receiving network requirements for communication between a first teleprotection relay and a second teleprotection relay, the first teleprotection relay associated with a first router of the segment routed network, and the second teleprotection relay associated with a second router of the segment routed network, identifying a primary path from the first router to the second router satisfying the network requirements, determining a congruent reverse of the primary path satisfies the network requirements, sending, to the first router, the primary path, the first router routing traffic from the first teleprotection relay to the second teleprotection relay using the primary path, and sending, to the second router, the congruent reverse of the primary path, the second router routing traffic from the second teleprotection relay to the first teleprotection relay using the congruent reverse of the primary path.
