Abstract
A Mapping of Address and Port using Translation (MAP-T) border relay controller for managing and controlling a MAP-T network. Configuration and performance data are collected, by a border relay configuration collector, from one or more MAP-T border relay nodes of a MAP-T network. Internet Protocol (IP) flow data are collected, by an IP flow data collector, across one or more Internet peering routers coupled to the MAP-T network. A network anomaly that impairs performance of the MAP-T network is analyzed, by a logic algorithm module, using the configuration and performance data collected by the border relay configuration collector and the IP flow data collector. A network translation capability of the MAP-T network is reconfigured based on the analysis of the network anomaly and/or availability of network resources.
