<p>A system for configuring network devices on a computer network, which has particular applications in a hot-desking office environment, maintains within a database (110) not only the IT infrastructure of the network but also the organisational or business relationships between certain networked devices, for example the information that a particular computer terminal (404) is physically located on the same desk as an adjacent network telephone (406). This information allows the telephone or other associated networked devices to be automatically configured with a pre-defined profile of the user who will be sitting at that workstation. The invention enables delivery of an integrated IT service regardless of wherever the individual chooses to work within the office. <IMAGE></p> |
