Abstract: Blockchain technology is used to provide distributed authentication, entitlements and trust among different virtual Radio Access Network (vRAN) elements. An enterprise blockchain with interfaces enables multi-vendor vRAN deployment across multiple service providers. In another embodiment, a method is provided for authenticating entities in a virtualized radio access network to ensure various entitles are in fact entitled to participate in various radio access network operations.

Abstract: Techniques for adaptive thresholding are provided. First and second data points are received. A plurality of data points are identified, where the plurality of data points corresponds to timestamps associated with the first and second data points. At least one cluster is generated for the plurality of data points based on a predefined cluster radius. Upon determining that the first data point is outside of the cluster, the first data point is labeled as anomalous. A predicted value is generated for the second data point, based on processing data points in the cluster using a machine learning model, and a deviation between the predicted value and an actual value for the second data point is computed. Upon determining that the deviation exceeds a threshold, the second data point is labeled as anomalous. Finally, computing resources are reallocated, based on at least one of the anomalous data points.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for configuring an edge router of a communication provider network, the edge router coupled to communicate with a plurality of media streaming playback devices. Based at least in part on an indication of characteristics associated with the plurality of media streaming playback devices, a first multicast join for the edge router is configured to the communication provider network such that one or more media servers delivers a first plurality of media streams to the edge router via the communication provider network. Based at least in part on an indication of a request for an additional media stream not included in the first plurality of media streams, a second multicast join for the edge router is configured to the communication provider network such that the one or more media servers delivers the additional media stream to the edge router via the communication provider network.

Abstract: A solution for selecting an optimal user Plane entity (with Control and User Plane Separation (CUPS)) per UE during seamless roaming. In one embodiment, a method is provide that is performed by a control plane entity in a mobile core network that supports inter public land mobile network (PLMN) roaming among two or more PLMNs. The method includes obtaining a create session request from an entity in a second PLMN to which a user equipment has roamed from a first PLMN; selecting a particular user plane entity among a plurality of user plane entities based on one or more user equipment related parameters; and establishing a session with the particular user plane entity to serve user plane traffic in the mobile core network for the user equipment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for using real time network traffic for validating policy configuration(s) of containers, virtual machines, bare-metals, etc. In one aspect of the present disclosure a method includes receiving, at a controller, an incoming data packet destined for one or more containers; replicating, at the controller, the incoming data packet for validating at least one non-production container to yield a replicated data packet; sending the replicated data packet to the at least one non-production container; and dropping any data packet received from the at least one non-production container at a corresponding incoming port of the controller.

Abstract: Techniques are provided that leverage inband metadata techniques for use in a mobile core network in order to create relevant third generation 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) control plane interfaces between virtual control plane and virtual user plane elements that can be used to instruct the virtual entities to perform various functions, collect telemetry and other data from the virtual entities and signal maintenance messages between control plane and user plane entities. One control plane interface can be used to perform holistic performance analysis functionalities and identify the better performing path and accordingly use primary path and warm paths for control plane exchanges.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to a system that authenticates the identity of a user trying to access a service. The system comprises an authentication provider configured to communicate authentication requirements to a continuous multifactor authentication device and the continuous multifactor authentication device configured to receive authentication requirements, to fuse multiple identification factors into an identification credential for a user according to the authentication requirements, and to send the authentication credential to the authentication provider. After receiving the identification credential meeting the authentication requirements, the authentication provider is configured to instruct a service provider to initiate a session.

Abstract: A system is provided that includes one management cluster to manage network function virtualization infrastructure (NFVI) resources lifecycle in more than one edge POD locations, where resources include hardware and/or software, and where software resources lifecycle includes software development, upgrades, downgrades, logging, monitoring etc. Methods are provided for decoupling storage from compute and network functions in each virtual machine (VM)-based NFVI deployment location and moving it to a centralized location. Centralized storage could simultaneously interact with more than one edge PODs, and the security is built-in with periodic key rotation. Methods are provided for increasing NFVI system viability by dedicating (fencing) CPU core pairs for specific controller operations and workload operations, and sharing the CPU cores for specific tasks.
