Abstract:
Techniques are provided herein for establishing at a network management server a presence on a network. A presence associated with one or more managed devices on the network is detected. An instant messaging (IM) session is established with the one or more managed devices. The IM session forms a virtual chat room for performing a management function on the one or more managed devices, and IM messages are sent that are configured to perform the management function on the one or more managed devices. Techniques are also provided herein for establishing on a network an enriched presence by a network management server that is configured to perform a management function via a presence function of a messaging and presence protocol.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided herein for enabling a virtual private network (VPN) using a bidirectional, full duplex transport channel configured to send and receive application layer data packets. At a source network device that hosts a VPN client, the VPN client is configured with a bidirectional, full duplex transport channel that is configured to send and receive Open Systems Interconnection application layer data packets. The VPN client is also configured with a virtual network interface that operates to virtually link the VPN client with the transport channel.
Abstract:
A context-driven publication option is received over a network at an adaptive publish subscribe broker from a publishing network device. The context driven publication options are presented over the network to a subscribing network device. A selection of a context-driven subscription is received over the network at the adaptive publish/subscribe broker from the subscribing network device. A publication configured for network management and operations is received at the adaptive publish/subscribe broker. Publications are filtered at the adaptive publish/subscribe broker for the subscribing network device according to the selection of the context-driven subscription.
