Various other embodiments are also provided.

A network device may obtain information concerning a virtual chassis that indicates that the network device and an additional network device are to be included in the virtual chassis. The network device may determine, based on the information concerning the virtual chassis, that the network device is connected to the additional network device, wherein the network device is connected to the additional network device via a link between a network interface of the network device and a network interface of the additional network device. The network device may cause the network interface of the network device to be converted to a virtual chassis interface and the network interface of the additional network device to be converted to a virtual chassis interface to enable the network device and the additional network device to be included in the virtual chassis to allow bootstrapping of the virtual chassis as a single logical device.

A system, method and apparatus for augmenting a building control system domain. A sensor network platform can be configured to collect data based on measurements from sensors outside of a legacy building control system domain, and to present information based on the collected data to a known interface supported by the legacy building control system. In one embodiment, the collected data can undergo customized processing by an operation center outside of the legacy building control system domain.

A network device may send, to a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, a request for an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address to be assigned to a management port of the network device, wherein IPv6 is disabled at the network device, and may receive a message that includes information associated with a network management system (NMS) and IPv6 configuration information for enabling IPv6 processing on the management port. In response to receiving the IPv6 configuration information, the network device may enable IPv6 processing on the management port of the network device and may register with the NMS based at least in part on the information associated with the NMS. The network device may, in response to receiving one or more configuration commands sent from the NMS to the management port of the network device, configure the network device according to the one or more configuration commands.

A method for zero-touch provisioning is disclosed. The method includes receiving a customer specification of network requirements exclusively specified for a CPE assigned to a specific customer at a specific customer premises. The CSNR includes information describing the premises and information describing an intended operation of the CPE. The method also includes storing a job assignment including a unique CPE identity and service information for the provisioning of the CPE. The identity is linked to the customer through the job assignment. The method also includes provisioning a class of service template exclusively for providing the intended operation of the CPE at the customer premises and paired with the CPE identity through the job assignment. The method also includes receiving a provisioning request sent by the CPE to a FQDN pointed at the ZTP server and including the CPE identity. Finally, the method includes pushing the COS template to the CPE.

A method is provided for installing a new node in a wireless home network having a client network and includes a node able to form a mesh network. A connection of a new node to the client network supplied by the home network node is detected, and an identifier of a client device that is connected to the client network is received. If the client device is known to the home network: the new node is notified that the client device that is connected to the client network must be disconnected from the client network; a connection of the client device to the client network supplied by the node of the home network is detected; and identifiers of the mesh network are transferred to the new node if the connection of the disconnected client device to the client network supplied by the node of the domestic network is detected.

A method of remotely configuring access to at least one home automation device that is part of a home-automation installation, the home automation installation comprising at least one home automation device and at least one central control unit, and the method being performed by a first remote access service carried out by a management unit and including the following steps: receiving an information message relating to the presence of the home automation device from a central control unit to which the device is linked; determining a second service associated with the type of home automation device for which remote access must be configured with corresponding access rules; configuring an access rights reference system in order to accept at least one control command from the second service or transmitting monitoring data to the second service on behalf of the home automation device. The present application also relates to a control and monitoring method.

A mobile cell (mCell) for use in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The mCell may include a wireless network cell node attached to a mobile carrier. The mCell may have one or more processors operable to: assign physical cell identity (PCI) and root sequence index (RSI) for allowing the mCell to join the network in a plug-and-play manner and to maintain connectivity with the system while moving; provide wireless application access for user equipment (UE) and wireless data relay and xHaul for neighboring cells nodes while the mCell is moving; and communicatively couple with other cells and network elements of the system, thereby forming a mesh network for extending and enhancing wireless communication within the system.

A system and method for configuring components added to a network is disclosed. The method includes detecting, by a first hypervisor of a first host machine, that a second host machine having a second hypervisor is being added to a cluster of host machines comprising the first host machine, and identifying a plurality of network connections of the first hypervisor, each network connection being associated with one of a plurality of networks connecting hypervisors on host machines in the cluster, each network connection of the first hypervisor having a set of configuration settings. The method also includes generating, for each network connection, a message including a set of configuration settings of a corresponding network connection of the first hypervisor, and transmitting the message on a respective network to a second hypervisor to facilitate configuration of a corresponding network connection of the second hypervisor.
