METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SPECIFYING MACHINE IDENTIFIERS FOR MACHINE-TO-MACHINE PLATFORM SUPPORT |
摘要 |
An approach is provided for determining, specifying, or associating a unique identifier with a machine in a machine-to-machine communications network. The approach includes specifying a unique identifier for a machine attached to a sub-network of an aggregator, wherein the machine and the aggregator comprise at least a portion of a machine-to-machine deployment. The approach also includes associating the unique identifier with a message directed to or originating from the machine via the aggregator, wherein the unique identifier is exposed beyond the sub-network for determining a connectivity status of the machine. |
