Management of endpoint devices utilizing tag bridge devices

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having stored therein program code of one or more software programs, wherein the program code when executed by at least one processing device causes the at least one processing device:

• to receive, over a first communication channel from an orchestrator entity, at least one command specifying one or more actions to take involving an endpoint device, the one or more actions comprising at least one of writing data to a tag of a tag bridge device and reading data from the tag of the tag bridge device;
• and
• to relay the at least one command to the tag of the tag bridge device over a second communication channel, the second communication channel being established between a tag interface of the at least one processing device and the tag bridge device, wherein the tag bridge device, when plugged in to a port of the endpoint device, relays the at least one command from the tag to the endpoint device.

A method comprising:

• receiving, at a processing device over a first communication channel from an orchestrator entity, at least one command specifying one or more actions to take involving an endpoint device, the one or more actions comprising at least one of writing data to a tag of a tag bridge device and reading data from the tag of the tag bridge device;
• and
• relaying the at least one command to the tag of the tag bridge device over a second communication channel, the second communication channel being established between a tag interface of the processing device and the tag bridge device, wherein the tag bridge device, when plugged in to a port of the endpoint device, relays the at least one command from the tag to the endpoint device.
