Patent Images
1. A computer implemented system comprising:
- an RFID bridge providing a translation of management messages to SOAP messages for ALE units at multiple edge servers;
wherein the RFID bridge contains an RFID management service to do the translation of the management messages to the SOAP messages to the multiple edge servers, the RFID management service looking up which one of the edge servers to send a SOAP messages to and sending the SOAP message to an ALE unit at the one of the multiple edge servers, the RFID management service updating a repository based upon a response from the one of the edge servers and then forwarding a response to a requestor; and
a console that uses the RFID bridge to manage the multiple edge servers.
