    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network inserts a profile tag into an address request sent by an endpoint node in the network to a lookup service. The lookup service is configured to identify one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate based on a profile for the endpoint node associated with the inserted profile tag. The device receives an address response sent from the lookup service to the endpoint node that indicates the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device determines whether a communication between the endpoint node and a particular network address is authorized using the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device blocks the communication based on a determination that the particular network address is not in the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate.

    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: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for multi-destination TCP communications using bit indexed explicit replication (BIER). In some examples, a system can generate a TCP packet associated with a TCP session involving a set of destination devices, and encode an array of bits into the TCP packet to yield a TCP multicast packet. The array of bits can define the destination devices as destinations for the multicast packet. The system can transmit the TCP multicast packet towards the destination devices through a BIER domain. The system can receive acknowledgements from a first subset of the destination devices. Based on the acknowledgements, the system can determine that the first subset of the destination devices received the multicast packet and a second subset of the destination devices did not receive the multicast packet. The system can then retransmit the multicast packet to the second subset of the destination devices.

    Abstract: Embodiments include technologies for creating a manifest for a conferencing event in a network, adding a name tag identifying the conferencing event to the manifest, receiving an interest packet including one or more parameters indicating a named flow being produced at a source node, adding content metadata of the named flow to the manifest, and sending the manifest to the source node. Further embodiments include adding, to the manifest, session-level metadata associated with a user of the source node. Embodiments include receiving a second interest packet with one or more second parameters identifying a user of a client node, where the second interest packet indicates a request to authorize the user of the client node to subscribe to the conferencing event. In further embodiments, session-level metadata associated with the user is added to the manifest if the user is authorized to subscribe to the conferencing event.
