Network device for use in a communication network and method of manufacturing a network device

Abstract

A network device includes at least one wireless communication device for transmitting data and/or for storing received data by energy received from a transmitting device by induction. The wireless communication device includes or is connected to an ID memory operable by the received energy, in which at least one UAID (unified address identification) can be stored, and which can be read out or (over)written by the wireless communication device. An operating memory is provided, in which an operating data of the network device, which is at least partially necessary for the operation of the network device, can be stored. A method for manufacturing the network device includes assembling the device, storing primary configuration data, generating secondary configuration data, storing the secondary configuration data in a central processing memory, and overwriting the primary configuration data in the network device with the secondary configuration data.
