Intra-premises content and equipment management in a femtocell network
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- determining, by a routing device of an enterprise femto network that comprises a processor, that a mobile device is coupled to a femto access point device of femto access point devices that are deployed in the enterprise femto network, wherein the femto access point devices are coupled to a network gateway device of a cellular network via a common backhaul link;
subsequent to the determining, receiving, by the routing device, status data indicative of an operational status of an intra-premises device of an intra-premises network that is coupled to the enterprise femto network and deployed within a coverage area of the femto access point devices, wherein the receiving comprises receiving the status data independently of utilizing the network gateway device; and
facilitating, by the routing device, a transmission of the status data to the mobile device via the femto access point device and independently of utilizing the network gateway device, wherein a route for the transmission between the routing device and the mobile device is determined based on preference data indicative of a routing preference, and wherein the preference data is determined to be linked to a user identity of the mobile device.

Abstract
Traffic and signaling is routed between a set of networked femto access points (APs) and devices served there from, and content and equipment that is part of a network functionally coupled to the set of networked femto APs is managed. Networked equipment spans a network deployed within the coverage area spanned by the set of femto APs. A routing platform functionally couples the networked equipment and the femto AP to enable content manipulation amongst a mobile device and the equipment. Routing platform also affords remote control of the networked equipment. Delivery of advertisement and monetary incentive(s) can be provided through the routing platform to the equipment. Routing platform further provides security features related to operation of specific equipment and wireless services supplied via the routing platform.

12. A routing device, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising; subsequent to a determination that a communication device is coupled to a femto access point device of femto access point devices deployed in an enterprise femto network, receiving status data indicative of an operational status of an intra-premises device of an intra-premises network that is coupled to the enterprise femto network and deployed within a coverage area of the femto access point devices, wherein the routing device couples the femto access point devices to a network gateway device of a cellular network via a common backhaul link and couples the femto access point devices to the intra-premises device, and wherein the receiving comprises receiving the status data independent of utilizing the network gateway device, and facilitating a transmission comprising the status data from the routing device to the communication device via a route that is independent of utilization of the network gateway device, wherein the route for the transmission is selected based on preference data indicative of a routing preference associated with a user identity of the communication device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a routing device of an enterprise femto network facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
after determining that a communication device is coupled to a femto access point device of femto access point devices deployed in the enterprise femto network, receiving status data from an intra-premises device of an intra-premises network that is coupled to the enterprise femto network and deployed within a coverage area of the femto access point devices, wherein the routing device couples the femto access point devices to a network gateway device of a cellular network via a common backhaul link and couples the femto access point devices to the intra-premises device, and wherein the status data is indicative of an operational status of the intra-premises device; and directing, from the routing device to the communication device, the status data via a route that is independent of transferring the status data via the network gateway device, wherein the route is determined based on preference data indicative of a routing preference defined by a user identity related to the communication device. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
