LOCATION APPROXIMATION AND DISCOVERY OF WIRED SERVERS

摘要

The present disclosure discloses a method and network device for providing location approximation and discovery of wired servers in a network. Specifically, a network device can store information indicating that a first client device, with a first set of one or more characteristics, selected a particular shared device from a plurality of shared devices of a first type. The network device then receives, from a second client device, a request for a shared device of the first type. Subsequently, the network device determines that the second client device is associated with the same first set of characteristics as the first client device that selected the particular shared device. Responsive to such determination, the network device presents the particular shared device as an option for selection by the second client device.
