  • Gateway using resource directory
    Patent number: 10542585
    Abstract: A system and method for allowing legacy devices to be discovered on a DotDot network is disclosed. The system includes a gateway device to interface between DotDot devices and legacy devices. In some embodiments, the gateway device has a plurality of network interfaces to communicate with these legacy devices. The gateway device discovers the legacy devices that it can communicate with. The gateway device then presents information about these legacy devices in a Resource Directory. In some embodiments, the Resource Directory is maintained within the gateway device. In other embodiments, the gateway device utilizes a Resource Directory that exists on the DotDot network.
