Abstract: Simplified and/or user friendly interfaces can be employed to facilitate administration of a routing platform that couples devices of a local area network (LAN) to an external communication network (e.g., the Internet). In one aspect, the routing platform comprises a firewall that can be employed to perform access control and/or an Internet of Things (IoT) hub that can be employed to control operations of IoT devices of the LAN, for example, based on domain information, user-defined tags and peer-defined criteria to make correlations that are leveraged to implement access control policies. A search and command interface is employable to issue textual (e.g., natural language) commands to configure access control policies, tags for devices and/or websites, and/or search for data.
