    Abstract: In a network Fault Management (FM) model, network equipment (160) maintains a ManagedElement object (12). The ManagedElement object contains one or more ManagedFunction objects (14, 22, 24, 26) with each ManagedFunction object (16) comprising an FMControl object specifying the capabilities of the ManagedFunction objects to produce, report, and log fault reports, a Fault Type List object (18) listing the various types of faults the ManagedFunction object can detect, report, and log, and a currentFaultList object (20) listing the current faults and associated fault information. The FMControl object further includes several attributes that are set by a Management System (30) to control the reading of fault reports as well as the sending of the fault reports to other interested network nodes (190).

    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for connecting one or more vehicles to a software defined wide area network (SD-WAN). The method deploys an edge router to operate in the vehicle, and configures the edge router to connect to several wireless network links (e.g., 5G cellular links) operating in the vehicle. In some embodiments, the different wireless network links are different mobile hotspot links provided by different telecommunication network providers (e.g., AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Orange, etc.). The method configures the edge router to forward several data message flows from a device operating in the vehicle (e.g., a computer located in the vehicle or a machine (e.g., virtual machine, Pod, container, etc.) executing on a computer located in the vehicle) to the SD-WAN using the several telecommunications network links.
