Abstract: A device may generate a first polynomial and a second polynomial, and may generate, based on the first polynomial, a primary path from a first network device to a second network device via a first set of intermediate network devices. The device may generate, based on the second polynomial, a secondary path from the first network device to the second network device via a second set of intermediate network devices, and may assign a point of the first and second polynomials to the device, to each of the first set of intermediate network devices and of the second set of intermediate network devices. The device may cause the primary path to be provided from the first network device to the second network device, and may cause the secondary path to be provided from the first network device to the second network device.

Abstract: A node may receive, from a quantum key-distribution (QKD) device, a first message that includes an identifier associated with a key. The node may send, to another node, a second message that includes the identifier and a request to perform at least one task. A node may receive, from the other node, a third message that includes information associated with performance of the at least one task by the other node and information indicating a time of performance. The node may receive, from the QKD device, a fourth message that includes the key and information indicating a time window associated with the quantum key; wherein the fourth message is received after expiration of the time window. The node may process, based on the fourth message, the third message to determine whether the third message is valid and thereby cause one or more actions to be performed.
