REGISTRATION SERVER, GATEWAY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A SECRET VALUE TO DEVICES

摘要

The present invention relates to auto-provisioning of authentication data for client devices. A registration server includes a gateway determination unit, which is configured to determine a gateway apparatus transferring a request signal from a device, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to transmit a first signal including a token and first access information of the gateway apparatus to the device if an identifier of the gateway apparatus is stored on the server, and to transmit a second signal indicating a positive response to the gateway apparatus when it obtains the token and the identifier based on a third signal received in response to the first signal. The gateway apparatus sends the secret value to the device when it receives the second signal.
