Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing computing device configuration information via a light transmission are disclosed. According to one method, the method occurs at a computing device. The method includes receiving configuration information including an internet protocol (IP) address assigned by a network node. The method also includes sending a transmission including the configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes the IP address, wherein the transmission includes either a visible light transmission or an infrared (IR) transmission.
Claims20
A method for providing computing device configuration information via a light transmission, the method comprising:
- at a computing device:
- receiving configuration information including an internet protocol (IP) address assigned by a network node;
- and
- sending a transmission including the configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes the IP address, wherein the transmission includes either a visible light transmission or an infrared (IR) transmission.
A system for providing computing device configuration information via a light transmission, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a computing device implemented using the at least one processor;
- the computing device configured for:
- receiving configuration information including an internet protocol (IP) address assigned by a network node;
- and
- sending a transmission including the configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes the IP address, wherein the transmission includes either a visible light transmission or an infrared (IR) transmission.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions that when executed by at least one processor of a computer cause the computer to perform steps comprising:
- at a computing device:
- receiving configuration information including an internet protocol (IP) address assigned by a network node;
- and
- sending a transmission including the configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes the IP address, wherein the transmission includes either a visible light transmission or an infrared (IR) transmission.
