A network device in a network may determine a tentative network address for a network interface of the network device and may determine whether the tentative network address is duplicative of any one of the network addresses in the network. If the tentative network address is duplicative of a network address assigned to another network interface in the network, the network device may store an indication of the other network interface. In response to receiving an indication that a new network address is assigned to the other network interface, the network device may re-determine whether the tentative network address is duplicative of any one of the network addresses in the network. If the network device determines that the tentative network address is not duplicative of any one of the plurality of network addresses in the network, the network device may assign the tentative network address to the network interface.

Techniques herein facilitate a device address rotation management protocol that may be implemented for a wireless local area network (WLAN), which can be used to influence when wireless client devices or stations may rotate their Media Access Control (MAC) addresses, how to perform such rotations, and/or the like. In one example, a method may include providing, by an access point (AP), a first communication indicating that the AP supports a MAC address rotation management protocol; obtaining, by the AP, a second communication from a wireless station (STA) indicating that the STA intends to perform a MAC address rotation; and transmitting, by the AP, a third communication to influence the MAC address rotation of the STA, the third communication comprising a rotation status indicator and timing information.

A communication apparatus includes a processor and a memory. The processor executes computer-readable instructions stored in the memory. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to establish a first network including the communication apparatus and a first device. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to establish a second network including the communication apparatus and a second device. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to determine a target IP address. Determining the target IP address includes identifying a particular IP address, which is an IP address of the communication apparatus used in the second type network. Determining the target IP address includes generating the target IP address to be within a particular range using the particular IP address. The particular range is a range of IP addresses that are not available in the second type network. The instructions instruct the communication apparatus to assign the target IP address to the first device.

An embodiment of the present invention is directed to analyzing historical network capacity allocations, using machine learning to predict future capacity needs and automating network capacity management activities such as allocations and de-allocations.

Detection of squatting domains is disclosed. A set of new fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) is received. The set of new FQDNs is analyzed to detect domain squatting by identifying a subset of the new FQDNs as candidate squatting domains. The candidate squatting domains are distributed to a security device/service.

A method of configuring a storage system includes the steps of: sending a command to one or more units in the electronic system to enter into an address setting mode; generating a signal for a user to identify units that have entered the address setting mode; and setting up an address for a unit based on an input received from the user.

An information processing device includes a virtualizer configured to operate as a proxy of hardware on the hardware, at least one virtual machine configured to function as a part of a process control system on the virtualizer, an address duplication determiner configured to determine duplication of an address on an external network when the external network is connected to the hardware, and an address duplication manager configured to cut a connection between the virtual machine and the external network when the duplication of the address is detected.
