Provided are systems and methods for configuring a network servicing node with user-defined instruction scripts. A method for configuring a network servicing node with user-defined instruction scripts may commence with receiving, from a user of the network servicing node, a user loadable program. The user loadable program may include at least the user-defined instruction scripts. The method may continue with receiving a data packet from a data network associated with the user. The method may further include determining a condition associated with the data packet. The method may continue with identifying, in a name table, a program name associated with a program using the condition. The program may be the user loadable program. The method may further include processing the data packet by getting an instruction of the user-defined instruction scripts from a storage module and applying the instruction to the data packet.

User defined objects for network devices

Systems and methods for TCP fast open support in proxy devices are provided. An example system may include at least one circuit and at least one data plane communicatively coupled to the circuit. The circuit may be configured to receive at least one SYN packet. The at least one SYN packet is associated with at least one client device and includes a cookie. The circuit can be configured to validate the cookie. If the result of the validation is positive, the data plane can be configured to initiate, based on the at least one SYN packet, a connection between the at least one client device and at least one server. If the result of the validation is negative, the circuit can be configured to generate, based on the SYN packet, a new cookie and send a SYN-ACK packet to the client, the SYN-ACK packet including the new cookie.

TCP fast open hardware support in proxy devices

Exemplary embodiments for configuring a network device using user-defined scripts are disclosed. The systems and methods provide for a servicing node to receive a request for a network session between a client device and a server, receive a user defined class and a user defined object configuration from a node controller, and use the information to instruct an object virtual machine to generate at least one user defined object. The servicing node can then apply the at least one user defined object to a data packet of the network session, where the user defined object allows a user to configure the network device with user-defined instruction scripts.

Programming a data network device using user defined scripts

Methods and systems are provided for automatically capturing network data for a detected anomaly. In some examples, a network node establishes a baseline usage by applying at least one baselining rule to network traffic to generate baseline statistics, detects an anomaly usage by applying at least one anomaly rule to network traffic and generating an anomaly event, and captures network data according to an anomaly event by triggering at least one capturing rule to be applied to network traffic when an associated anomaly event is generated.

Automatic capture of network data for a detected anomaly

Provided are methods and systems for configuring a network device with user-defined instruction scripts. The method may commence with receiving a request for a network session between a client device and a server. The method may further include receiving a user-defined class and a user-defined object configuration. The user-defined class and the user-defined object configuration may include the user-defined instruction scripts provided by a user of the client device. The method may further include instructing an object virtual machine to generate at least one user-defined object based on the user-defined class and the user-defined object configuration. The method may continue with instructing an object virtual machine to generate at least one user-defined object based on the user-defined class and the user-defined object configuration.

Programming a data network device using user defined scripts with licenses

Provided are methods and systems for load distribution in a data network. A method for load distribution in the data network comprises retrieving network data associated with the data network and service node data associated with one or more service nodes. The method further comprises analyzing the retrieved network data and service node data. Based on the analysis, a service policy is generated. Upon receiving one or more service requests, the one or more service requests are distributed among the service nodes according to the service policy.

Load distribution in data networks

Described herein are methods and systems for application aware fastpath processing over a data network. In some examples, application fastpath operates to facilitate application specific fastpath processing of data packets transferred between a client device and a server device over a network session of a data network.

Application aware systems and methods to process user loadable network applications

Facilitation of processing a chain of network applications by a network controller is provided herein. In some examples, a network controller comprising a fast path module receives a service request data packet from a client side session between a client and the network controller and determines that the service request data packet matches a network application chain order, the network application chain order indicating a configuration to apply a plurality of network applications. The fast path module processes the service request data packet according to the configuration indicated in the network application chain order.

System and method to process a chain of network applications

Systems and methods are provided herein. An exemplary servicing node may include: an interface to a data network, the interface coupled to an object machine; and the object machine, the object machine: receiving a data packet from the data network using the network interface, the data packet comprising at least one of a destination address, a destination port number, and an application protocol; determining a condition associated with the at least one of the destination address, the destination port number, and the application protocol; identifying a program name using the condition; executing a program using a name table, the name table linking each of a plurality of program names to a respective program, the executing comprising getting an instruction of the program, the instruction including object information.

Exemplary embodiments for programming a network device using user-defined scripts are disclosed. The systems and methods provide for a servicing node to receive a request for a network session between a client device and a server, receive a user defined class and a user defined object configuration from a node controller, and use the information to instruct an object virtual machine to generate at least one user defined object. The servicing node can then apply the at least one user defined object to a data packet of the network session, where the user defined object allows a user to configure the network device with user-defined instruction scripts.

In activating a service, a service gateway retrieves a service table entry using a service or server address of the service entry, where the service table entry has an association with another service entry. An association to the service entry is added and a marker value is set to indicate associations with two service entries. After a time duration, the association with the other service entry is removed, and the marker value is changed accordingly. In deactivating a service entry, the service gateway calculates a hash value for the service or server address of the service entry. After matching the hash value to a hash value of another service entry, an association with the other service entry is added. A marker value is set to indicate associations with two service entries. After a time duration, the association with the service entry is removed, and the marker value is changed accordingly.

Methods to manage services over a service gateway

Provided are methods and systems for load distribution in a data network. A method for load distribution in the data network may comprise retrieving network data associated with the data network and service node data associated with one or more service nodes. The method may further comprise analyzing the retrieved network data and service node data. Based on the analysis, a service policy may be generated. Upon receiving one or more service requests, the one or more service requests may be distributed among the service nodes according to the service policy.
