Abstract:

VPN data for building and maintaining VPNs through a public network is gathered. The VPN data is maintained, at a DNS server, as part of a DNS table. A portion of the VPN data is provided as part of a DNS view of the DNS table to a client device. A VPN mode indicating a manner to establish a VPN node for the client device through the public network is determined using the portion of the VPN data. When the client device is coupled to the public network the VPN node is established and maintained according to the VPN mode using the portion of the VPN data.

International Classification:

G06F 16/2455
G06F 17/27
H04L 29/06

Abstract:

Extracting data from traffic logs using regular expressions. A traffic log is received from a network device. A characterization of an extraction of data from the traffic log is determined. The traffic log is parsed by applying a first regular expression to the traffic log according to the characterization of the extraction of data from the traffic log to generate parsed data. Data is extracted from the traffic log by applying a second regular expression to the parsed data according to the characterization of the extraction of data from the traffic log to generate extracted data.
