  • Patent number: 11909845
    Abstract: Examples herein involve a multi-access edge computing (MEC) environment. An example process may include receiving a tenant application that is to be hosted in a MEC environment. The MEC environment may be situated between a user device and an external platform. The process may include assigning an edge service identifier (ESID) to the tenant application. The ESID may be used to indicate that a message, associated with the user device, involves the tenant application. The process may include assigning a host identifier to the tenant application. The host identifier may be used to indicate that report data, associated with execution of the tenant application within the MEC environment, is to be provided to the external platform. The process may include routing communications associated with the tenant application using the ESID and the host identifier.

  • Patent number: 10291603
    Abstract: A device may transmit, to a first device, a first point-to-multipoint message to determine whether to request security information. The security information may be associated with permitting the first device to register with a registration device. The device may receive, from the first device, a point-to-multipoint response that includes first device information associated with connecting to the first device. The device may transmit, to the first device, a second point-to-multipoint message based on the first device information. The device may request and receive the security information from the registration device. The device may provide the security information to the first device to permit the first device to register with the registration device.

  • Patent number: 10108758
    Abstract: Described herein is a method and system that provides access to numerous connected devices in a device bank and allows remote interaction and control of aspects of the connected devices using a remote management system. In an embodiment, the method comprises the configuring of one or more connected devices in the device bank to mimic an end user's connected device configuration and environment in order to resolve an issue with the end user's connected device. In other embodiments, the connected devices in the device bank can be used by end users such as developers to test and diagnose new applications and by remote support technicians to train themselves on connected devices.
