Abstract
A method including receiving, by a first device from a second device in a mesh network, a control command from the second device to control operation of a network resource device accessible by the first device, the control command being received via a meshnet connection between the first device and the second device; and transmitting, by the first device to the second device, operation information associated with operation of the network resource device in accordance with the control command, the operation information being transmitted via the meshnet connection. Various other aspects are contemplated.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a first device from a second device in a mesh network, a control command from the second device to control operation of a network resource device accessible by the first device, the control command being received via a meshnet connection between the first device and the second device and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing a first symmetric key that (i) is negotiated between the first device and the second device and (ii) is specific to the meshnet connection;
- and
- transmitting, by the first device to the second device, operation information associated with operation of the network resource device in accordance with the control command, the operation information being transmitted via the meshnet connection and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing the first symmetric key.
A first device, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the processor being configured to:
- receive, from a second device in a mesh network, a control command from the second device to control operation of a network resource device accessible by the first device, the control command being received via a meshnet connection between the first device and the second device and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing a first symmetric key that (i) is negotiated between the first device and the second device and (ii) is specific to the meshnet connection;
- and
- transmit, to the second device, operation information associated with operation of the network resource device in accordance with the control command, the operation information being transmitted via the meshnet connection and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing the first symmetric key.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with a first device, cause the processor to:
- receive, from a second device in a mesh network, a control command from the second device to control operation of a network resource device accessible by the first device, the control command being received via a meshnet connection between the first device and the second device and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing a first symmetric key that (i) is negotiated between the first device and the second device and (ii) is specific to the meshnet connection;
- and
- transmit, to the second device, operation information associated with operation of the network resource device in accordance with the control command, the operation information being transmitted via the meshnet connection and being encrypted based at least in part on utilizing the first symmetric key.
