Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include encoding, by a first computing device, a control message by generating a sequence of network link statuses, monitoring, by a second computing device, the sequence of network link statuses, decoding, by the second computing device, the sequence of network link statuses, and remediating the second computing device based on the control message. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- encoding, by a first computing device, a control message by generating a sequence of network link statuses;
- monitoring, by a second computing device that is separate and remote from the first computing device, the sequence of network link statuses;
- decoding, by the second computing device, the control message from the sequence of network link statuses;
- and
- remediating the second computing device based on the control message.
A system comprising one or more physical processors and one or more memories coupled to one or more of the physical processors, the one or more memories comprising instructions operable when executed by the one or more physical processors to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- encoding, by a first computing device, a control message by generating a sequence of network link statuses;
- monitoring, by a second computing device that is separate and remote from the first computing device, the sequence of network link statuses;
- decoding, by the second computing device, the control message from the sequence of network link statuses;
- and
- remediating the second computing device based on the control message.
A computer-readable medium comprising:
- computer-readable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- encode, by a first computing device, a control message by generating a sequence of network link statuses;
- monitor, by a second computing device that is separate and remote from the first computing device, the sequence of network link statuses;
- decode, by the second computing device, the control message from the sequence of network link statuses;
- and
- remediate the second computing device based on the control message.
