  • Patent number: 12267386
    Abstract: A lightweight and extensible information model for machine-to-machine systems is disclosed. A service layer information management architecture uses three categories of atomic objects, subjects, actions, and descriptions. Information for use within the model is built using the atomic information objects. Application programming interfaces are used to perform operations and information processing by different nodes. Common service functions are used in the model as instances of a generic common service information model.

  • Publication number: 20240414086
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for dynamically associating mobile devices with different software-defined wide area networks (SD-WANs) implemented for different user groups of a single shared network fabric of an entity. The method identifies a mobile device trying to connect to a managed network switch. The method uses one or more mobile device management (MDM) servers to identify attributes associated with the mobile device attempting to access the shared network fabric. The method uses the identified attributes to identify an SD-WAN tenant identifier (ID) associated with an SD-WAN established for a device group including the mobile device. The method provides the SD-WAN tenant ID to the managed network switch to store in encapsulating headers that the managed network switch uses to encapsulate data message flows from the mobile device before forwarding the flows to resources in the shared network fabric.

  • Publication number: 20240414520
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for dynamically associating mobile devices with different logical networks implemented on an entity's shared network fabric. At least two logical networks are implemented for at least two entity groups. At a first site, the method authenticates a mobile device and uses mobile device management (MDM) servers to identify an MDM group associated with the mobile device. The method uses the MDM group (1) to identify a first logical network over a shared network fabric at the first site to connect the mobile device to resources of the first site, and (2) to identify a logical network identifier (LNI) of a second logical network connecting a first edge gateway at the first site to a second edge gateway at a second site. The method inserts the LNI in an encapsulation header of data messages sent from the mobile device to resources at the second site.

  • Publication number: 20240305546
    Abstract: The present application describes a method and apparatus for managing a service in a service layer. In particular, a method describes a computer readable storage medium including instructions for managing a service in a service layer where the instructions are executed by a processor. The executed instructions cause the processor to receive a request to manage, via a service enabler function of the service layer, a change of state of the service including adding, removing, activating, or deactivating the service. The request may include a service description. The executed instructions also cause the processor to evaluate, via the service enabler function, the service description comprising identifiers of one or more services to manage. The executed instructions further cause the processor to identify one or more service capabilities in the service layer to assist in managing the one or more services identified in the service description.

  • Publication number: 20240171648
    Abstract: An M2M Service Layer is expanded to access the services of third parties and exchange data with these third parties. The M2M Service Layer is then able to act as a proxy between M2M Devices and the third party services. The M2M Service Layer is able to present a single/consistent interface, or API, to the M2M Device and hide the details of the third party service provider from the M2M Device.
