Abstract
Examples disclosed herein allow rules to he applied to a device from a service detected by the device. In one example, upon entering a service area, a device detects a service associated with the service area, wherein the service comprises rules to enable or disable parameters on devices, and the device then extracts a set of the rules from the service. As an example, the extracted set of rules corresponds to a group the device is associated with. The device determines whether conditions set for the extracted set of rules are met by the device and, if the conditions are met, the device applies the extracted set of rules to the device until the device exits the service area.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- upon entering a service area, detecting, by a device, a service associated with the service area, wherein the service comprises rules to enable or disable parameters on devices;
- extracting, a set of the rules from the service, wherein the extracted set of rules corresponds to a group the device is associated with;
- determining whether conditions set for the extracted set of rules are met by the device;
- and
- if the conditions are met, applying the extracted set of rules to he device until the device exits the service area.
An electronic device comprising:
- upon entering a service area, a detect engine to detect a service associated with the service area, wherein the service comprises rules to control parameters on electronic devices;
- an extract engine to extract a set of the rules from the service, wherein the extracted set of rules corresponds to a group the electronic device is associated with;
- and
- until the device exits the service area, an apply engine to apply the extracted set of rules to the electronic device, if conditions set for the extracted set of rules are met by the electronic device.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising programming instructions which, when executed by a processor, to cause a device to:
- detect a service comprising rules to control parameters on devices;
- extract a set of the rules from the service, wherein the extracted set of rules corresponds to a group the device is associated with;
- determine whether conditions set for the extracted set of rules are met by the device, wherein the conditions set for the extracted set of rules correspond to whether the device is geographically located in a particular location;
- and
- if the conditions are met, apply the extracted set of rules to the device until the device is no longer geographically located in the particular location.
