SETUP OF MULTIPLE IOT NETWORK DEVICES
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving, at an existing network device on a network, one or more communications, wherein the one or more communications include an indication that multiple new network devices are associated with the network;
receiving an indication that the multiple new network devices have each generated a setup access point;
establishing a connection with the setup access point of each of the multiple new network devices;
receiving identification information, wherein the identification information includes information identifying each of the multiple new network devices; and
transmitting the identification information identifying each of the multiple new network devices, wherein when the identification information is received, the identification information facilitates generating one or more authentication queries to authenticate one or more of the multiple new network devices.
