A pluggable CDN system and method include an edge node that is installed at each premises and caches/serves content/data to that premises that may be an individual user or a community. The edge node may use a hybrid push/pull caching scheme and may serve data to users even without any Internet connectivity.

A small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver is detected to be plugged into an SFP port of the network router following a bootup of the network router. Information on one or more device features of the SFP transceiver is obtained from the SFP transceiver plugged into the SFP port of the network router. Subsequently, a port configuration policy that corresponds to the one or more device features of the SFP transceiver and one or more router parameters of the network router is applied to the SFP port of the network router.

A method for zero-touch provisioning is disclosed. The method includes receiving a CSNR exclusively specified for a CPE assigned to a specific customer at the specific customer premises; provisioning a COS template created for providing the intended operation of the CPE at the customer premises, based at least on the CSNR; storing the COS template and a MAC address of the CPE as a job assignment; receiving, from the CPE, a provisioning request signal comprising the MAC address of the CPE, the CPE having already been authenticated by an authentication manager; and downloading to the CPE, based at least on the received MAC address of the CPE matching the job assignment, service information for the zero touch provisioning of the intended operation of the CPE; wherein the downloading to the CPE of the COS template takes place after the CPE has been authenticated by the authentication manager.

A wireless sensor network at a monitored location can be configured to generate sensor channel(s) of data to assess operational conditions at the monitored location. Inputs based on the sensor channel(s) of data are provided to a host system for analysis of a demand to one or more resources at the monitored location. Response messages can be generated based on the demand analysis and transmitted to actuator(s) at the monitored location to effect an adjustment to the operational conditions.

Implementations generally relate methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing automatic access point registration. In some implementations, a method includes receiving an indication of automatic device onboarding activation. The method further includes receiving a selection of one or more reference devices. The method further includes determining one or more detectable devices of the one or more candidate devices to be onboarded that are detectable by at least one of the one or more reference devices. The method further includes obtaining one or more automatic configuration parameters from one or more of the reference devices. The method further includes configuring one or more of the detectable devices to be onboarded with the one or more automatic configuration parameters.

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.

An example playback device is configured to (i) detect a triggering event that causes the playback device to transmit a first message indicating the playback device is available for setup, (ii) establish an initial communication path with a computing device, (iii) process one or more second messages received from the computing device via the initial communication path collectively containing network configuration parameters for a secure wireless network defined by one or more network devices, where the initial communication path with the computing device does not traverse any of the one or more network devices, and where the network configuration parameters include an identifier of, and security information for, the secure wireless network, (iv) use the network configuration parameters to connect to the secure wireless network, and (v) transition from communicating with the computing device via the initial communication path to communicating with the computing device via the secure wireless network.

This invention relates to a method of building a hybrid quantum-classical computing network, comprising: a first step of transformation of an application composed of services into a Petri net including both Petri places (8, 9) and Petri transitions (81, 82, 91-94) between said Petri places (8, 9), any said Petri place (8, 9) corresponding to: either a first type building block corresponding to any quantum processing unit (8) which processes a job into a result, or a second type building block corresponding to any plugin unit (9), which converts a job into another job and/or a result into another result, any Petri transition (81, 82, 91-94) corresponding to any link between two building blocks (8, 9), all said links (81, 82, 91-94) being formatted so as to make any building block (8, 9) interchangeable, a second step of transformation of said Petri net into a hybrid quantum-classical computing network, replacing any building block by its corresponding unit (8, 9), interconnecting all said corresponding units (8, 9) together by replacing any Petri transition (81, 82, 91-94) by a connection simply transmitting without processing nor converting.

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.

Systems and methods for providing a container network interface (CNI) specification that has been modified with a set of annotations, a set of operations, and a set of policies to provide network configuration reuse, network configuration replication, and database management (garbage collection) functionality are described. In response to receiving a request to initiate a function, whether the function is to be reused or replicated may be determined. In response to determining that the function is to be reused, calling a container network interface (CNI) plugin with a first operation that decouples database functions from network functions, so that the database can cache and reuse a network configuration generated for the function. In response to determining that the function is to be replicated, calling the CNI plugin with a second operation to create the network configuration and generate and store a template of the network configuration in the database.
