  • Methods, systems and processor-readable media for automatically detecting device movement in a managed service environment
    Patent number: 8982369
    Abstract: Methods, systems and processor-readable media for automatically detecting movement of a device in a managed service environment. A device management software module can be configured to monitor a number of devices and retrieve traps from the device. A new Internet Protocol (IP) address with respect to the device on a subnet can be automatically updated by the device management software module if the device has changed location to ensure continual monitoring of the device. A notification indicative of the new IP address with respect to the device that has changed location can be sent to an administrator if the device management software module is not permitted to contact the new IP address. A notification indicative of a new device can also be sent to the administrator to determine if the device should be managed and monitored.
