Disclosed are various examples of management service based device platform creation and device configuration. In some examples, user interactions with a platform creation portal user interface define a device platform that includes a platform ability, and an ability parameter that adjusts the platform ability. A device platform registry is updated to include the platform ability and the ability parameter. A device configuration request associated with the device platform is received. The device platform is transformed to generate a device management console with user interface elements that identify at least one user-defined argument for the at least one ability parameter.

Management service device platform creation and device configuration

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.

Internet of things device discovery and configuration

Disclosed are various examples for Internet of Things (IoT) device discovery and configuration. In some embodiments, a gateway receives a specified IoT protocol, and instructions for the gateway device to broadcast an IoT device discovery message. The gateway broadcasts the IoT device discovery beacon message, and IoT devices provide unique IoT device identifiers in response. A list of IoT devices is transmitted to the management service. The gateway device receives and implements a command to allow communications with the IoT devices.

Disclosed are various examples for Internet of Things (IoT) device discovery and configuration. In some embodiments, an IoT template is generated based on IoT capabilities for an IoT type. An IoT device discovery command is transmitted from a management service to a gateway enrolled with the management service. The IoT device discovery command includes the IoT template and instructions for the respective gateway to transmit an IoT device discovery message using the IoT protocol. A list of IoT devices is received from the gateway. The list of IoT devices corresponds to the IoT protocol and the IoT type. An enrollment of an IoT device is performed. The enrollment includes transmitting an IoT device enrollment command that instructs the respective gateway to permit communication with the IoT device.
