Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for updating an operational parameter of a device of a local network of interconnected devices are provided. A user-operated device, in association with an attempt to access the device, may provide an update to the operational parameter of the device. The user-operated device may send the update to the operational parameter before sending the device an operational command. The device may apply the update received from the user-operated device before performing an operation corresponding to the operational command.

Updating devices in a local network of interconnected devices

An access control system may be deployed at a location in a multi-tenant environment. The access control system may store access control information at one or more of an access control device, an access control bridge device, or an access control server. Tenant-specific access control information may be respectively stored at tenant-specific access control devices to control access to tenant-specific areas of the location. Shared access control information may be stored at shared access control devices to control access to common areas of the location. The access control system may be selectively configured such that an access device, an access control bridge device, or the access control server processes requests for access that are received at the location.

Access control in a multi-tenant environment

Systems, methods, and devices are described herein for executing a lockdown of electronic locks deployed in a local network of interconnected devices. In example implementations, each electronic lock is provided with a unique encryption key specific to that electronic lock and is provided with a shared encryption key. To execute a lockdown of all electronic locks in the local network, a server generates a locking instruction and encrypts it using the shared encryption key. The server then transmits the encrypted locking instruction to the gateway devices of the local network which, in turn, transmit it to each of the electronic locks. Upon receipt of the encrypted locking instruction, the electronic locks attempt to decrypt it using the shared encryption key. Upon successful decryption of the encrypted locking instruction, an electronic lock toggles to a lock state.

Emergency lockdown in a local network of interconnected devices

Systems, methods, and apparatus for using a message broker that implements a publish-subscribe messaging protocol to exchange messages between a remote server and a bridge computing device of a local network of interconnected devices are disclosed. In one example, a bridge computing devices transmits to a remote server, a provisioning request in response to achieving a power-on state. The server generates and transmits, to the bridge computing device, a provisioning response that includes information indicating a channel to which the remote server will publish messages and a channel to which the bridge computing device should publish messages. The bridge computing device subscribes to the channel the server will publish to, and the server subscribes to the channel the bridge computing device will publish to. Third-party computing devices may also subscribe and publish to the channels in order to receive and provide messages to the bridge computing device.
