When a data packet is received at the ingress switch, an egress port for the data packet is determined, an identifier and an encapsulation value of the egress port are added to the data packet, and the data packet is stored in a corresponding VO queue. The data packet remains at the ingress switch until an egress switch is available.

Devices, systems, methods, and processes for flow entropy management using network address translation (NAT) scheme are described herein. Typically, due to fewer flows and high bandwidth demands in backend data center networks, hash distribution algorithms may exhibit bias, leading to congestion on certain network paths while others remain underutilized, a phenomenon known as low flow entropy. To address the low flow entropy problem, a network interface controller (NIC) decomposes a traffic flow into multiple flowlets and applies a NAT operation on each flowlet. In the NAT operation, an actual source port value of a flowlet is replaced with a unique unused source port value to make the flowlet look like a different traffic flow to a switch. Thus, the switch processes each flowlet as a different traffic flow and uses load balancing schemes to distribute the flowlets across various network paths. Thus, improving the flow entropy of the network.

Suspicious Filename Detection Based On Character-Level Recurrent Neural Network Class Predictions
Disclosed herein is a machine learning-based approach to detect suspiciously named processes. When malware executes on a networking device, such as a laptop or desktop computer, the malware may create a copy of itself, assign the copy a process name consisting of random characters, and store the copy in a directory of the networking device. As characters of words in a given language follow patterns and rules, the presence of each character is not equally likely. In contrast, characters in random sequences have an equal likelihood of being present. In some implementations disclosed herein, a character-level recurrent neural network (RNN) is trained to distinguish between randomly generated filenames from those created by an user and thus, identify malware attacks. In some implementations, a character-level RNN is configured to classify filenames as malicious or benign.

IN-NETWORK COMPUTING USING MODULAR SWITCH ARCHITECTURE
Devices, systems, methods, and processes for in-network computing using modular switch architecture are described herein. Endpoint devices generate data chunks and forward them to a network, comprising spine and leaf switches, for data reduction. Leaf switches act as conduits and forward the data chunks to a spine switch. The spine switch includes various line cards (e.g., one for each leaf switch) and a fabric element. The line cards may execute a stage of data reduction on the received data chunks or may forward the received data chunks directly to the fabric element. The fabric element executes a data reduction operation on the data received from the line cards and obtains a reduced output which is forwarded to the endpoint devices via the line cards and the leaf switches. Thus, a single-tier in-network computing topology is implemented to execute data reduction in a cost-effective, simple, and efficient manner.
Devices, systems, methods, and processes for incast congestion management are described herein. Typically, in a Packet Sequence Number (PSN) based Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) network, Priority Flow Control (PFC) is asserted upstream when an incast congestion event occurs, which can victimize unrelated flows. Thus, instead of asserting PFC, a switch in the PSN based RDMA network detects an incast congestion event and directly notifies one or more Reliable Connection (RC) Queue Pairs (QPs) of various sending devices, associated with the incast congestion event using Receiver Not Ready (RNR) negative acknowledgements (NACKs). These RNR NACKs are associated with unique pause time-periods. The associated RC QPs receive the RNR NACKs and pause packet transmission. The associated RC QPs resume packet transmission upon expiration of corresponding pause time-periods. Thus, the packet transmission from the contributing RC QPs is spaced out, avoiding all packets reaching a switch output port at the same time.

Devices, systems, methods, and processes for switch triggered faster go-back-N recovery are described herein. Typically, Go-back-N recovery is triggered in response to: a receiver missing a packet and receiving a next packet in a data transmission sequence, or a sender timing out and identifying a missing acknowledgement for a dropped packet. Such scheme suffers potential latency issues, especially when the dropped packet is the last packet or corresponds to a single packet message. Thus, instead of relying on the sender to timeout and identify missing acknowledgements or on the receiver to receive the next packet, a switch executes a packet mirroring and trimming scheme on the dropped packet and generates a trimmed out-of-order packet of the same reliable connection flow. The trimmed out-of-order packet causes the receiver to transmit a negative acknowledgement to the sender, thus triggering faster go-back-N recovery and causing the sender to retransmit the dropped packet.

DYNAMIC BANDWIDTH EXPANSION ACTIVATION AND TERMINATION OPERATION
Signal mechanisms are described for performing dynamic bandwidth expansion (DBE) at an access point (AR). In one embodiment, the AR and stations (STAs) exchange signals indicating their respective DBE capabilities (e.g., whether DBE is supported, maximum dynamic BW, etc.). Later, the AR (or a network controller) can determine to perform DBE. For example, the load on the AR may jump because the AR is located in a conference room or an event center. To provide additional BW, the AR (or RRM) can determine to perform DBE to increase the bandwidth available to the AR. To do so, the AR transmits a DBE announcement to inform the STAs. This announcement can include information such as bandwidth, center frequency, whether a subchannel is punctured, etc.). The AR and STAs can then use the expanded bandwidth.
