Devices and methods to identify malicious usage of a network device. In at least one embodiment, a network device comprises circuitry for performing a networking function and collecting telemetry data indicative of the performance of the networking function. The network device obtains an inference of a network traffic pattern using a machine learning model, and responds to the inference.

Network devices assisted by machine learning

In one embodiment, a device includes a data compression engine configured to process data packets of multiple network flows received from a network, and compress respective groups of the received data packets into respective compressed packets for sending over the network, each respective compressed packet including respective ones of the received data packets from different ones of the network flows, wherein the network interface is configured to send the compressed packets over the network.

Multi-flow compression

A network device includes at least one port, a memory, data-path circuitry, and a processor. The at least one port is to exchange packets with a network. The data-path circuitry is to process the packets. The memory is to store signatures of traffic patterns according to a locality-sensitive signature function., and corresponding parameter settings for the data-path circuitry. The processor is to assess a current traffic pattern of the packets, to calculate a current signature over the current traffic pattern using the locality-sensitive signature function, to query the memory using the current signature, to configure the data-path circuitry, in response to finding a stored signature that is within a specified distance from the current signature, with a parameter setting that corresponds to the found signature, and take an alternative action in response to finding that no stored signature is within the specified distance from the current signature.
