Abstract

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing object-based changes to filter-intent over multicast or publication/subscription (“Pub/Sub”) distribution. In various embodiments, a computing system (e.g., a managed device among a plurality of managed devices and/or its corresponding agent) may receive, from a network filter orchestration conductor, a global filter-intent list including a first filter intent that references a corresponding filter-intent object. The computing system may determine whether the at least one first filter intent applies to the managed device. If so, the computing system may translate the at least one first filter intent into a first filter that is specific to a first configuration of the managed device, in some cases, by building the first filter based at least in part on the at least one first filter intent. The computing system may subsequently apply the first filter to one or more network communications handled by the managed device.
