In an aspect, the present disclosure includes a method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium for wireless communications for initiating, by a provisioning system, a provisioning procedure to configure and update a device that initiates an initial connection to a wireless network based on a unique identifier of the device; and establishing, by the provisioning system, a secure socket with the device based on the provisioning procedure.

A system is provided for streaming media content in a vehicle. The system includes a personal media streaming appliance system configured to connect to a media delivery system and receive media content from the media delivery system at least via a cellular network. The media delivery system is configured to link a user media streaming account with a particular personal media streaming appliance to provide personalized media content to the appliance. Media contexts are assigned to multiple preset settings automatically so that the personal media streaming appliance system is configured to output personalized media content upon first use.

Embodiments of a device and method are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method of network device name management involves at a cloud server, determining a device name of a network device to be deployed at a customer site based on site survey result information of the customer site, at the cloud server, receiving network device information of the network device after the network device is deployed at the customer site, and at the cloud server, associating the device name of the network device with the network device information of the network device.

A method for automatically configuring router and a routing system are provided. The method is operated in a routing system including a router, a user equipment and an analysis platform, and the method includes the following steps. The router collects related data used by the user equipment to connect to the Internet, and stores the data in a memory. When each time the router determining that a first event meets a first preset condition, the router uploads the data to the analysis platform. The analysis platform uses a computational model to analyze the data, and stores an analysis result in the analysis platform. When the analysis platform each time determines that a second event meets a second preset condition, the analysis platform forms a configuration file, and loads the configuration file into the router, so that the router performs a configuration work according to the configuration file.

Systems and methods for provisioning system components to execute jobs are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving a request to provision system components for executing a job. Aggregate latencies for computing units may be calculated based on startup latencies for jobs executing on the computing units. A particular computing unit may be selected from among the plurality of computing units based on the aggregate latencies, and system components may be provisioned from the computing unit.

Reliability-based service chain instance selection in a 5G network includes evaluating, for a service chain provided in a 5G network, the service chain comprising a series of network functions with processing hand-offs and take-overs therebetween, reliability of each service chain instance of a plurality of available service chain instances of the service chain, obtaining a service request for processing in the 5G network, the service request to be serviced by the service chain, selecting a service chain instance of the plurality of available service chain instances to process the service request, the selecting being based on the evaluated reliabilities of the plurality of available service chain instances, and invoking processing of the selected service chain instance to process the service request.

A centralized manager in a network deployment is configured to perform periodic automated rotation of secrets used in the network and customer devices in the deployment. The centralized manager is further configured with intelligence to automatically install the rotated secrets onto the deployed devices. The centralized controller can provide high frequency rotations to improve network security.

A method for automatic configuration of a communication network includes: generating a request message, the request message including a communication address associated; transmitting the generated request message as a broadcast message to a plurality of computing devices using a predefined user datagram protocol (UDP) port, the message being broadcast with a predetermined time to live; receiving agreement messages from computing devices transmitted by the respective computing device using the predefined UDP port, each agreement message including a communication address associated with the respective computing device and a specified transmission control protocol (TCP) port; identifying at least one of the one or more agreement messages for establishment of communication; and establishing a communication connection to the computing device associated with each identified agreement message using the specific TCP port.

Systems and methods for receiving information on network firewall policy configurations are disclosed. Based on the received firewall configuration information, a configuration of a firewall and/or subnet of network devices is automatically provisioned and/or configured to control network traffic to and from the subnet.

Techniques for improving computing device operations are provided. A system can include an organizational database that stores a centralized set of organizational data having a plurality of device objects and a plurality of employee objects. The system can receive a notification associated with the first employee object. Additionally, the system can determine, using the organizational database, that the first device object is associated with the first employee. Moreover, the system can access a device policy for the first device object. Furthermore, the system can evaluate the device policy based at least in part on data associated with the first employee object and the notification. The evaluation of the device policy includes running a query expression against the centralized set of organizational data to return a query result. Subsequently, the system can execute an action based on the query result. The action can be associated with the first computing device.
