Methods, devices, and storage media provide for receiving a request to use a multiparty service offered by autonomous devices; determining whether persistence information exists that indicates one of the autonomous devices to which the request is to be routed; selecting one of the autonomous devices to transmit the request in response to determining that persistence information does not exist, and wherein the device has no knowledge which of the autonomous devices is to accept the request; transmitting the request; receiving a response; recognizing whether the request is accepted based on the response; storing persistence information indicating the one of the autonomous devices is servicing the request; and using the persistence information to transmit a subsequent request to use the multiparty service to the one of the autonomous devices, wherein the subsequent request pertains to a same session of the multiparty service as the request.

Multiparty service access in a network with autonomous nodes

Methods, devices, and storage media provide for receiving a request to use a multiparty service; applying priority rules for routing the request toward a destination endpoint, wherein the applying comprises determining whether the destination endpoint is a private destination endpoint or a public destination endpoint; routing the request toward the private destination endpoint in response to determining that a destination address or a portion thereof included in the request corresponds to the private destination endpoint; and routing the request toward the public destination endpoint in response to determining that the destination address or the portion thereof included in the request corresponds to the public destination endpoint.

Multiparty service establishment based on priority rules for routing

Methods, devices, and storage media storing instructions to obtain logs from a security device and one or multiple service-providing devices, wherein the logs include information pertaining to traffic flow activity at an application layer associated with a service; store rules that identify behavior ranging from unintentional through intentional for one or multiple communication layers including an application layer; interpret the logs based on the rules; determine whether a violation exists based on the interpreting; and generate a notification that indicates the violation exists in response to a determination that the violation exists.

Network security system with customizable rule-based analytics engine for identifying application layer violations

A device may obtain, from a remote device on a network, information regarding loads and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) devices on which the loads are installed. In addition, the device may access a database storing load compatibility information, identify problematic loads based on the obtained information and the load compatibility information, determine fixes for one or more of the problematic loads, and apply the fixes to the one or more of the problematic loads over the network.
