Managing remote devices
First Claim
1. A method of managing a remote device, comprising:
- in a processing device of a server communicatively coupled to the remote device;
obtaining a first identifier which corresponds to a name sequence in state information of the remote device, the first identifier being mapped to a template that provides the state information;
obtaining a second identifier which corresponds to a numerical value sequence in the state information;
sending a state access notification that comprises at least the first identifier and the second identifier; and
providing the state information based on the first identifier and the second identifier in response to having received a result of activating the state access notification, the providing of the state information comprising;
constructing the state information using the template which is mapped to the first identifier, and the numerical value sequence which corresponds to the second identifier,wherein the state access notification comprises a uniform resource identifier (URI) which includes the first and second identifiers, and the activating of the state access notification comprises a user activating the state access notification by clicking on the URI.
