A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for facilitating synchronization of setting configurations. An apparatus may include a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor cause the apparatus to configure a setting on the apparatus. The instructions when executed by the processor may further cause the apparatus to generate a settings data package comprising the setting configuration. The instructions when executed by the processor may additionally cause the apparatus to send the settings data package to a settings management service for synchronization of the setting configuration to at least one of a service or a user device. The settings management service may be configured to synchronize the setting configuration by distributing the settings data package to the at least one of the service or the user device. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.

Methods, systems and computer readable media for securing mDNS in enterprise networks are described. In some implementations, the method can include authorizing one or more service advertisements and validating one or more service advertisements. The method can also include adding one or more information details to a record associated with an advertised service.

Securing mDNS in enterprise networks

Systems, methods and computer readable media for mobility integration with fabric-enabled networks are described. Some implementations can include a method comprising terminating, using one or more processors, an access tunnel at an edge switch of a fabric-enabled network, and establishing, using the one or more processors, a mobility tunnel with the edge switch. The method can also include mapping, using the one or more processors, a mobility network to a service identifier associated with the mobility network. The method can further include forwarding, using the one or more processors, traffic for the mobility network from the edge switch to another edge switch across the fabric enabled network, wherein the traffic includes the service identifier.

Mobility integration with fabric enabled network

A network node is described herein which ensures that whenever an ingress station (e.g., PC) communicates a special MAC DA packet then that packet's copies are forwarded (via a high availability VLAN) to its port(s) that are associated with remote network node(s) and/or egress server(s) (e.g., firewall(s)) and not forwarded to its port(s) that are associated with data storage server(s) or ingress station(s) (e.g., PCs). The network node also ensures that whenever an ingress station (e.g., PC) communicates a normal MAC DA packet then that packet's copies are forwarded to all of its port(s) that are associated with ingress station(s), remote network node(s), egress server(s) and/or data storage server(s) so that these stations/servers can maintain their connectivity via a default VLAN.
