INTERNET OF THINGS DEVICE DISCOVERY AND CONFIGURATION

Abstract:

Disclosed are various examples for Internet of Things (IoT) device discovery and configuration. In some embodiments, a management service generates a console user interface. Through the console user interface, an Internet-of-Things (IoT) protocol is selected for an IoT discovery campaign to discover IoT devices that are deployed in an enterprise environment and utilize the IoT protocol. A gateway distribution list is defined for the IoT discovery campaign. A command is transmitted according to the IoT discovery campaign, causing a gateway device to discover IoT devices that are deployed in the enterprise environment and utilize the IoT protocol.
