Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory device for a software defined networking (SDN) fabric predicts a failure in the SDN fabric using a machine learning-based failure prediction model. The supervisory device identifies a plurality of traffic flows having associated leaves in the SDN fabric that would be affected by the predicted failure. The supervisory device selects a subset of the identified plurality of traffic flows and their associated leaves. The supervisory device disaggregates routes for the selected subset of traffic flows and their associated leaves, to avoid the predicted failure.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device configures a plurality of subinterfaces for each of a plurality of physical ports of a software defined network (SDN). The device allocates a fixed amount of bandwidth to each of the subinterfaces. The device forms a plurality of midlays for the SDN by assigning subsets of the plurality of subinterfaces to each of the midlays. The device assigns a network slice to one or more of the midlays, based on a bandwidth requirement of the network slice.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory device for a software defined networking (SDN) fabric predicts characteristics of a new traffic flow to be admitted to the fabric, based on a set of initial packets of the flow. The supervisory device predicts an impact of admitting the flow to the SDN fabric, using a heatmap-based saturation model for the SDN fabric. The supervisory device admits the flow to the SDN fabric, based on the predicted impact. The supervisory device uses reinforcement learning to adjust one or more call admission control (CAC) parameters of the SDN fabric, based on captured telemetry data regarding the admitted flow.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a multicast listener device floods a path lookup request to search for a multicast tree, and may then receive path lookup responses from candidate nodes on the multicast tree, where each of the path lookup responses indicates a unicast routing cost from a respective candidate node to the multicast listener device, and where each of the candidate nodes is configured to suppress a path lookup response if a total path latency from a source of the multicast tree to the multicast listener device via that respective candidate node is greater than a maximum allowable path latency. The multicast listener device may then select a particular candidate node as a join point for the multicast tree based on the particular node having a lowest associated unicast routing cost to the multicast listener device from among the candidate nodes, and joins the multicast tree at the selected join point.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives a plurality of packets from one or more neighbors of the device. Each of the packets has a scheduled delivery time interval according to a deterministic communication schedule. The device determines an amount of clock drift for each of the one or more neighbors of the device by comparing arrival times of the received packets to their scheduled delivery time intervals according to the deterministic communication schedule. The device calculates a clock adjustment based on the amount of clock drift for each of the one or more neighbors. The device adjusts a clock of the device using the calculated clock adjustment.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a virtual firewall is installed on a port of a device that communicates across a zone boundary within an industrial network. The virtual firewall is then configured based on operation of the industrial network, such that the port may then communicate via the firewall to a remote virtual firewall of a remote port of a remote device across the zone boundary.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a supervisory device in a network receives from a plurality of access points (APs) in the network data regarding a network availability request broadcast by a node seeking to access the network and received by the APs in the plurality. The supervisory device uniquely associates the node with a virtual access point (VAP) for the node and forms a VAP mapping between the VAP for the node and a set of the APs in the plurality selected based on the received data regarding the network availability request. One of the APs in the mapping is designated as a primary access point for the node. The supervisory device instructs the primary AP to send a network availability response to the node that includes information for the VAP. The node uses the information for the VAP to access the network via the set of APs in the VAP mapping.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a server instructs one or more networking devices in a local area network (LAN) to form virtual network overlay in the LAN that redirects traffic associated with a particular node in the LAN to the server. The server receives the redirected traffic associated with the particular node. The server determines a node profile for the particular node based in part on an analysis of the redirected traffic. The server configures the particular node based on the determined node profile for the particular node.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives a path computation agent configured to determine a path in the network that satisfies an objective function. The device executes the path computation agent to update state information regarding the network maintained by the path computation agent. The device selects a neighbor of the device in the network to execute the path computation agent based on the updated state information regarding the network. The device instructs the selected neighbor to execute the path computation agent with the updated state information regarding the network. The device unloads the path computation agent from the device after selecting the neighbor of the device to execute the path computation agent.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives information regarding one or more traffic flows in the network. The device identifies a particular one of the one or more traffic flows as a seasonal traffic flow based on the information regarding the one or more traffic flows. The device determines whether a service level agreement associated with the seasonal traffic flow is met. The device causes a time-based path for the seasonal traffic flow to be provisioned, in response to a determination that the service level agreement associated with the seasonal traffic flow is not met.
