Abstract: Devices and methods are discussed herein to track networked electronic devices during the course of their lifecycles. Each electronic device may be provided with a “green passport” by its manufacturer which contains all relevant information concerning the operation of the device during its lifetime. When a new electronic device is coupled to a network, it may emit a uniform resource identifier (URI) which may be received by a server that may operate as a manager for the green passports of devices within its purview. The manager may download the green passport from the manufacturer's server. The manager may verify the authenticity of the URI and/or the green passport to avoid security threats. The manager may monitor the electronic device and issue notifications throughout its lifecycle. At the end-of-life of the electronic device, the manager may issue sustainable disposable information for the device.

Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to automatically generating standard network device configurations. In one example, one or more groups of network device configuration blocks may be obtained. An analysis of the one or more groups of network device configuration blocks may be performed, including identifying respective frequencies associated with respective network device configuration blocks of the one or more groups of network device configuration blocks. Based on the respective frequencies, one or more network device configuration blocks of the one or more groups of network device configuration blocks may be automatically aggregated into a standard network device configuration.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for Selective Tracking of Acknowledgments (STACKing) to improve buffer utilization and traffic shaping for one or more network devices. A network device can identify a first flow that corresponds to a predetermined traffic class and a predetermined congestion state. The device can determine a current window size and congestion threshold of the first flow. In response to a determination to selectively track a portion of acknowledgments of the first flow, the device can track, in main memory, information of a first portion of acknowledgments of the first flow. The device can exclude, from one or more buffers, a second portion of acknowledgments of the first flow. The device can re-generate and transmit segments corresponding to the second portion of acknowledgments at a target transmission rate based on traffic shaping policies for the predetermined traffic class and congestion state.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises detecting, by an apparatus, establishment of a stateful application session between a mobile endpoint device and a stateful virtualized application executed by a first virtualization host in a data network, the mobile endpoint device establishing a network connection with the stateful virtualized application via a first wireless connection with a first network access point; generating, by the apparatus, a connection container comprising a connection identifier uniquely identifying the network connection, connection metadata describing the network connection, and application state metadata describing execution of the stateful virtualized application for the mobile endpoint device; and outputting, by the apparatus, the application state metadata for continuous execution of the stateful virtualized application by a second virtualization host associated with a second network access point, based on determining the mobile endpoint device connecting with the second network access point and disconnecting from the first network access point.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a proxy for a network obtains a traffic flow. The proxy determines whether a security policy in a whitelist for the traffic flow is active. If it is determined that the security policy for the traffic flow is active, the proxy selectively decrypts the traffic flow to produce one or more traffic flow attributes and, based on the one or more traffic flow attributes, determines whether the traffic flow is potentially malicious.
