Batch network configuration of building control devices for a building control network

A method for performing a batch network configuring of a plurality of building control devices for a building control network, the method comprising:

• storing a plurality of digital certificate files, wherein each of the digital certificate files includes a digital certificate and has a file name that includes a pattern that can be matched to a unique identifier of a respective one of the plurality of building control devices;
• automatically identifying a matching one of the plurality of digital certificate files for each of the plurality of building control devices by matching the pattern in the file name of the matching digital certificate file with the unique identifier of the respective one of the plurality of building control devices;
• batch uploading the matching ones of the plurality of digital certificate files to the respective one of the plurality of building control devices for subsequent use by the respective one of the plurality of building control devices when communicating over the building control network;
• automatically identifying matching first and second ones of the plurality of digital certificate files for each of the plurality of building control devices by matching the pattern in the file name of the matching first and second ones of the plurality of digital certificate files with the unique identifier of the respective one of the plurality of building control devices;
• and
• batch uploading the matching first and second ones of the plurality of digital certificate files to the respective one of the plurality of building control devices for subsequent use by the respective one of the plurality of building control devices when communicating over the building control network;
• wherein the first of the plurality of digital certificate files include a digital certificate that includes a user certificate, and the second of the plurality of digital certificate files include a digital certificate that includes a private key.
