Abstract
A method for arranging a device to operate in a mesh network is provided, the method includes: receiving data relating to the mesh network; evaluating at least one capability of the device to determine data indicative of at least one mesh network capability required by the device to operate in the mesh network; inquiring if the mesh network is capable of providing determined the at least one mesh network capability; and adjusting an application software executed by the device with data indicative of the at least one mesh network capability available from the mesh network for the device to connect the device to the mesh network. A device, a system, and a computer program are also provided.
Claims25
A method for arranging a device to operate in a mesh network, the method, performed by the device, comprising:
- receiving data relating to the mesh network;
- evaluating at least one capability of the device to determine data indicative of at least one mesh network capability required by the device to operate in the mesh network;
- inquiring, from a data storage connected to the mesh network, that the mesh network is configured to provide the at least one mesh network capability that is required by the device;
- and
- adjusting, in response to a receipt of a response to the inquiring that the mesh network is configured to provide the at least one mesh network capability that is required by the device, an application software executed by the device with the data indicative of the at least one mesh network capability available from the mesh network for the device to connect the device to the mesh network.
A device configured to arrange the device to operate in a mesh network, the device comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- receive data comprising data relating to the mesh network,
- evaluate at least one capability of the operation device to determine data indicative of at least one mesh network capability required by the device to operate in the mesh network,
- inquire, from a data storage connected to the mesh network, that the mesh network is configured to provide the at least one mesh network capability that is required by the device, and
- adjust, in response to a receipt of a response to the inquiring that the mesh network is configured to provide the at least one mesh network capability that is required by the device, an application software executed by the device with the data indicative of the at least one mesh network capability available from the mesh network for the device to connect the device to the mesh network.
