Abstract:
Techniques are described for distributing network device tasks across virtual machines executing in a computing cloud. A network device includes a network interface to send and receive messages, a routing unit comprising one or more processors configured to execute a version of a network operating system, and a virtual machine agent. The virtual machine agent is configured to identify a virtual machine executing at a computing cloud communicatively coupled to the network device, wherein the identified virtual machine executes an instance of the version of the network operating system, to send, using the at least one network interface and to the virtual machine, a request to perform a task, and to receive, using the at least one network interface and from the virtual machine, a task response that includes a result of performing the task. The routing unit is configured to update the network device based on the result.
Method, Device And System For Utilizing Block Chain To Define Trusted Circle
A method for utilizing a block chain infrastructure to define a trusted circle including at least two nodes of a plurality of nodes, the method includes receiving, by a first node, notification information identifying a trusted user circle including the first node and a second node, wherein the first node and the second node are configured to define a private block chain; and maintaining private block chain data within the trusted user circle according to pre-defined settings, wherein the private block chain data is divided between nodes of the trusted user circle based on the pre-defined settings.
