An embodiment of the invention allows a network access server to control network access for individual applications that run on a device. The device may be included in a machine-to-machine environment. The embodiment may provide a secure channel between the network access server and the device access layer and another secure channel between the device access layer and the device application layer. Thus, before applications are allowed to access the network those applications may be required to authenticate themselves via a secure channel. Other embodiments are described herein.

Secure machine to machine communication

Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to provide a secure device area network. Many embodiments comprise a gateway node or enterprise enhanced node with a services distribution frame installed on a customer's premises. The gateway node or enterprise enhanced node may interconnect the secure wireless device area network at the customer's premises with a cellular network. In many embodiments, the cellular network core may provision authentication credentials and security keys, and manage access polies to facilitate access by Application Service Providers to devices on premises including smart devices via a security and policy enforcement function of a services distribution frame of the gateway node or enterprise enhanced node, Authorized members of the secure wireless device area network may connect to the Wide Area Network (WAN) through the gateway node and the cellular network core.

Secure wireless device area network of a cellular system

A system and method for routing and interacting with a dual mode network telephony environment are disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes an external analog telephony line, a DSL modem, an analog telephony bridge controller, one or more additional analog telephony lines, and a communication center computer. The system routes analog and Voice-over-Internet Protocol calls between the analog telephony lines and the communication center computer. Furthermore, the communication center computer performs operations on calls inbound to the environment and calls outbound from the environment.

Dual mode network telephony gateway

An RJ 11 port is disclosed that detects the device to which it is connected and automatically reconfigures itself as end user equipment or network interface equipment.
