Dynamic Graph Node Allocation For Vector Packet Processing Workers Operating In A Mobile Network User Plane, Harish Kumar Krishnamurthy
Defensive Publications Series
In a Vector Packet Processing (VPP) environment, such as may be implemented for a mobile network Control and User Plane Separation (CUPS) mobile gateways, each VPP worker executes the same code, typically operating as graph nodes. Some graph nodes, such as session queue nodes (typically used for Lawful Intercept (LI) Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) processing), Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) encryption nodes (typically used for Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) processing), Transport Layer Security (TLS) related graph nodes, or the like, can involve Central Processing Unit (CPU) intensive operations. For example, if LI or IPsec is enabled, all workers will have these …

In a Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), when a central control plane is installed it ideally first establishes Transport Layer Security (TLS) tunnels with edge devices and then forms data plane tunnels, such as Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) tunnels, which provide end-to-end connectivity between the edge devices. It is conventionally considered that the end-to-end connectivity provides more efficiency, but this may not be true for all types of traffic. For example, there may be scenarios in which tunnels can be formed between edge devices that are not performance efficient; thereby, causing exhaustion of central processing unit (CPU) resources, memory resources, …

Language Agnostic Call-Graph Instrumentation, Ashutosh Goel, Prabish Kumar Tattari Prakasan
Defensive Publications Series
Currently, in the space of Application Performance Monitoring (APM), instrumentation agents for different languages capture stack-traces, as well as additional information indicating how functions are called, how these calls are related to each other, and how much time each function call takes, which can be represented using call-graphs. However, the underlying software (code) used to capture these call-graphs is often implemented in different programming language-specific agents (e.g., a Java-agent, a php-agent, a Python-agent, etc.), which results in code-logic-duplication and maintenance overhead. It would be beneficial to provide a capability for capturing call-graphs in a language agnostic manner. Techniques presented herein …

Robust Data Sending In Printer Telemetry, Hp Inc
Defensive Publications Series
Large Format Printers are IoT devices that send data to the cloud on event basis. The type of data sending is, for example, the total ink consumed by the printer up to this day or information about the cartridges. Data is sent based on a data schema. Data schemas are a common interface for communication between printer and cloud data platforms. Printer could be operating under certain modes not supported by the schema. This causes data schema validation to fail, provoking data quality issues. The solution proposed creates a second schema, tagging the files which do not have the minimum …
Smart Alert To Recommend The Capacity Of The Supplies That A User Should Buy Using Printer Usage Information Before Supplies Are Empty, Hp Inc
Defensive Publications Series
Large Format Printers are IoT devices that send data to the cloud periodically. Data being sent includes the total ink consumed by the printer up to that day or information about cartridge consumptions. Ink cartridges for large format may be bought online, but delay is expected between the moment the cartridge is bought and the moment the ink supply arrives to the customer. This means that some previsions must be considered when buying another supply or there is the risk that the printer will not be able to print. In addition, ink inside supplies has an expiration date. This means …

Multi-Factor Authentication In Wireless Networks, Sachin D. Wakudkar, Ugo Campiglio
Defensive Publications Series
Wireless networks employ many forms of single and multiple authentication techniques (many of which may be combined) to support both different types of devices and strong authentication methods. However, there are times when such strong methods may not be used (when, for example, devices such as Internet of things (IoT) devices, voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phones, etc. do not allow user input or the installation of a certificate) and a weaker method (such as a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK)) may be selected. In such cases, Multi-factor authentication (MFA), leveraging out-of-band (OOB) communication, could be employed to increase …

Large enterprises typically have a global footprint spanning multiple geographical regions and often desire a Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SDWAN) for such multi-region deployments. A hierarchical SDWAN solution provides a simple, feature rich and scalable option for such deployments by dividing a network into regions and providing inter-region connectivity via border routers (BRs). However, SDWAN deployments typically enforce a strict hierarchy such that all inter-region traffic must flow through the border routers. Presented herein are techniques that address such challenges by providing for the ability to offload only critical traffic over a premium backbone, thereby keeping operational costs low. Further, …

Oam Linked Sr-Te Policy To Prevent Longer Explicit Path Due To Network Failure, Anonymous
Defensive Publications Series
SR-TE policies are used for Traffic Engineering (TE) in Segment Routing (SR) networks. SR-TE provide ways to define traffic engineered paths by means of “Explicit Candidate paths” and “Dynamic Candidate paths”. With the former, operator can determine the paths and configure them as Segment List (SID-list) at head-end. Currently, the candidate path selection method specified by SR policy architecture defined by IETF is based on preference. The proposed approach factors in hop-count along with preference as best path selection criteria. A head-end can determine the hop-count of an explicit path by running IGP SPF based on its topology database. However, …
