Abstract
A device identifier of a connected device connected to a customer-premises equipment (CPE) is associated with a device context information of the connected device. The CPE is configured to implement a local area network (LAN) for a data communication of the connected device. The device context information and the associated device identifier are passed to a service in the CPE using a communication mechanism. The CPE is configured to implement a platform for the service. The communication mechanism is configured to operate in the CPE.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- associating a device identifier of a connected device connected to a customer-premises equipment (CPE) with a device context information of the connected device, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a local area network (LAN) for a data communication of the connected device and wherein the device identifier is generated outside of the connected device;
- and
- passing the device context information and the associated device identifier to a service in the CPE using a communication mechanism, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a platform for the service, and wherein the communication mechanism is configured to operate in the CPE.
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories configured to:
- associate a device identifier of a connected device connected to a customer-premises equipment (CPE) with a device context information of the connected device, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a local area network (LAN) for a data communication of the connected device and wherein the device identifier is generated outside of the connected device;
- and
- pass the device context information and the associated device identifier to a service in the CPE using a communication mechanism, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a platform for the service, and wherein the communication mechanism is configured to operate in the CPE.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a computer program with instructions which, when executed by an apparatus, cause the apparatus to:
- associate a device identifier of a connected device connected to a customer-premises equipment (CPE) with a device context information of the connected device, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a local area network (LAN) for a data communication of the connected device and wherein the device identifier is generated outside of the connected device;
- and
- pass the device context information and the associated device identifier to a service in the CPE using a communication mechanism, wherein the CPE is configured to implement a platform for the service, and wherein the communication mechanism is configured to operate in the CPE.
