Processing communications via a sensor network

A system comprising:

• a first device to:
• receive provisioning information for a second device,
• the second device being associated with a machine-to-machine device;
• establish a tunnel with the second device within a first network based on receiving the provisioning information;
• provide the provisioning information to the second device to cause the second device to gather or process data within the first network;
• receive a command instruction from a user device via a second network,
• the command instruction relating to the data gathered or processed by the second device,
• the first network being separate from the second network;
• communicate with the second device within the first network and independently of the second network to process the command instruction;
• form a response to the command instruction based on processing the command instruction;
• and
• provide the response to the command instruction towards the user device.

A computer-readable medium for storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors associated with a first device, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive provisioning information for a second device;
• establish a tunnel with the second device within a first network based on receiving the provisioning information;
• provide the provisioning information to the second device to cause the second device to gather or process data within the first network;
• receive a command instruction from a user device via a second network,
• the command instruction relating to the data gathered or processed by the second device,
• the first network being separate from the second network;
• authorize the user device based on authorization information included in the command instruction;
• communicate with the second device within the first network and independently of the second network to process the command instruction based on authorizing the user device;
• form a response to the command instruction based on processing the command instruction;
• and
• provide the response to the command instruction towards the user device.
