Abstract: Infrastructure-based client management uses synthesized beacon reports to effect client association with APs in a wireless digital network. Beacon reports are synthesized by having a plurality of APs in the network collect client reports and send those reports to a report process on the network. The report process accumulates client reports from the plurality of APs and selects one or more candidate APs to support a client. Selection may be made on reported SNR, AP loading, channel loading, AP characteristics, or a combination. The report process may produce blacklists and optionally whitelists for use by APs to use in processing client probe and connection requests.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and system for partitioning WLAN in order to separate network traffic from different WLANs. Specifically, a network device receives a packet from a client connected to a first network device on an access network. The network device then determines that the received packet is associated with a VLAN that is pre-configured on the first network device based on the access network to which the client is connected. Furthermore, the network device transmits the packet to a MAC layer switching device, which is not configured with the VLAN that is pre-configured on the network device. The packet includes one of a DHCP discovery message, an ARP request message, a unicast message, a multicast message, and a broadcast message. The unicast message will be transmitted to the second network device on the pre-configured VLAN prior to being transmitted to another network device outside the pre-configured VLAN.

Abstract: HTTP-Based Captive Portal. Client requests through a device such as an access point or wired connection are routed through a captive portal switch (CPS). If the CPS determines that the client has not been authenticated, the CPS redirects (NATs) the client request to an internal HTTP proxy. The CPS HTTP proxy terminates the client request and opens a connection to a captive portal server. Thus, for an unauthenticated client, any HTTP request will be routed to the captive portal server. When client authentication at the captive portal server completes, the captive portal server returns a success code, such as embedded in a web page delivered to the client. When the CPS recognizes this success code, it disables the NAT for that client, allowing further requests to be passed through the network. The CPS may be hosted in a separate network appliance, or it may be a process hosted in the AP or on another AP in the network, or on a network device such as a controller or switch.

Abstract translation: 基于HTTP的强制门户。 通过诸如接入点或有线连接的设备的客户端请求通过强制门户交换机（CPS）进行路由。 如果CPS确定客户端尚未被认证，则CPS将客户端请求重定向到内部HTTP代理（NAT）。 CPS HTTP代理终止客户端请求，并打开与强制门户服务器的连接。 因此，对于未经身份验证的客户端，任何HTTP请求将被路由到强制门户服务器。 当强制门户网站服务器的客户端验证完成时，强制门户网站服务器返回一个成功代码，例如嵌入到传递给客户端的网页中。 当CPS认可此成功代码时，它将禁用该客户端的NAT，允许进一步的请求通过网络传递。 CPS可以托管在单独的网络设备中，或者它可以是在AP中或在网络中的另一个AP上托管的进程，或者在诸如控制器或交换机的网络设备上。

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a network device and/or method for enhanced VLAN pooling assignments in a wireless network. The disclosed network device receives a message from a wireless client in the wireless network. The network device identifies a virtual local area network (VLAN) based at least on a size of the VLAN and a number of active wireless clients associated with the VLAN. Next, the network device assigns the wireless client to the identified VLAN. In some embodiments, the network device assigns a wireless client to a VLAN if the radio between the number of active wireless clients and the size of the VLAN does not exceed a predetermined value. In some embodiments, the network device assigns a wireless client to a previously assigned VLAN or a VLAN corresponding to an identified home network device, if the wireless client is a roaming client.

Abstract: Providing and maintaining an IP address for swarm-based services. A swarm is a group of digital devices operating cooperatively on a network, such as a group of wireless access points. Services may be distributed over members of the swarm, with each service having a master which is hosted on one member of the swarm. The master broadcasts a periodic heartbeat, advertising its service and the address of the host member. If a swarm member fails to hear a particular service's heartbeat for a predetermined interval, it broadcasts a message announcing its intent to be master for the service. If the swarm member does not receive any other broadcasts from members indenting to take the role of master for the service, it takes over the role of master for the service and begins broadcasting periodic heartbeats identifying itself as the service master. If multiple swam members broadcast their intent to become master of the same service, a resolution protocol is invoked and one swarm member is selected to be master. In operation, each member of the swarm maintains a table of services and the address of the swarm member hosting the service; this information is obtained from the periodic heartbeats broadcast by each service master. When a swarm member receives a service request, the request is either redirected to the service master, or the request is terminated at the swarm member and handled.
