A UE communicates with a network gateway to access a provisioning device via a provisioning network. The provisioning device uses identification data of the UE to authenticate the UE for a primary network, and provides primary network configuration data to the UE. Using the primary network configuration data, the UE communicates with the network gateway to access the primary network. The primary network configuration data can include data to enable the UE to establish communications with one or more private networks accessible via the primary network.

Secure network enrollment

A wireless mobile communication device can receive one or more network parameters from a network gateway and identify a network associated with the network parameters based on stored network information of networks with which the device is configured to join and/or network gateways with which the device is configured to communicate. The device can identify private network information associated with the identified network that will enable the device to access one or more private networks via the identified network. Once the device obtains access to the identified network, the device can set up one or more virtual private network (VPN) tunnels to join one or more private networks accessible via the identified network. When using two or more VPN tunnels, one VPN tunnel can be nested within another VPN tunnel.

Secure network rollover

A new terminal is seamlessly and securely integrated to an existing (primary) Wi-Fi network within an operating environment at a restaurant location. The location includes a data management server (DMS) for managing the local operations of devices operating there. The device being installed at the location is auto-configured into the primary Wi-Fi network by being provided with a default Wi-Fi profile that only enables the device to be activated on an activation Wi-Fi network also available at the location. Once the device activates to the Wi-Fi activation network, it requests activation onto the primary Wi-Fi network from a cloud-based data center. The data center requests an activation password from the local DMS. The local DMS generates an activation bundle, which is then returned and eventually instantiated on the device to complete the activation. Once activated, the device updates its Wi-Fi profile to now executed on the primary Wi-Fi network.

Secure wireless network-based activation for table-side information and point-of-sale devices

A wireless parameter-sensing node in a network thereof, the parameter-sensing node includes: sensors to sample values of parameters, respectively; a memory; a collection engine configured to: selectively collect data representing at least some of the sampled values, respectively; and store the collected data in the memory; an omega engine configured to: retrieve selected portions of the collected data from the memory; and send the selected portions to a remote host; wherein at least one of the collection, the storage, the retrieval and the sending are performable according to one or more reconfigurable collection-control criteria, one or more reconfigurable storage-control criteria, one or more reconfigurable retrieval-control criteria and one or more reconfigurable reporting-control criteria, respectively, stored in the memory. The parameter-sensing node and the remote host relate, e.g., as a taskee-client and a taskor-server, respectively.

Wireless parameter-sensing node and network thereof

Discretely-mobile parameter-sensing nodes, such as mobile phones, may be connected to a remote host. Each of the nodes is capable of sensing parametric values that are internal, and ambient to the node. The values may relate to atypical movement of a group of users, such as warfighters, that are associated with the nodes. Upon analysis of the atypical movement, the status (e.g., health) of a user associated with a node involved in such movement can be ascertained.

Methods of operating wireless parameter-sensing nodes and remote host

A method (of operating a mobile parameter-sensing node (e.g., a mobile phone) connectable wirelessly to a remote host (e.g., a base station or NIB)) includes: sampling values of parameters that are internal to and/or ambient to the node; selectively collecting data representing the sampled values according to a first subject list (defining which ones amongst the parameters will have data representative thereof collected) and/or a first frequencies-of-collection list (of collection frequencies at which the data are to be collected); analyzing, locally to the node, the collected data in terms of alarm criteria; and selectively collecting data according to a second subject list and/or a second frequencies-of-collection list when one or more of the alarm criteria are satisfied, the second subject list and the second frequencies-of-collection list being more inclusive than the first subject list and the second frequencies-of-collection list.
