Abstract

Managed device scatternet administration is described herein. In one example, to form a scatternet of managed devices, a network entry request including a unique device identifier and a public key is received from a client device. The public key is validated and the structure of the scatternet is examined to find an opening for the client device. After validation of the public key, network access data and a session key are encrypted by the public key and forwarded to the client device. The client device can use the network access data to find a network sublayer having the opening in the scatternet. At the same time, client admission data and the session key can also be sent to a sublayer propagator device of the network sublayer. After the client device enters the scatternet, management configuration data can be dispatched to it for device management.
