Abstract
A collaboration manager server is provided that bridges a PAN with a WAN. When the collaboration manager server receives, from the first mobile device, a request to establish a second network service, wherein the second network service provides for bridging a PAN with a WAN, the collaboration manager server determines a credential to be used by mobile devices who wish to join the second network service and, in response to determining that the first mobile device is authorized to make such a request, establishes the second network service. Further, in response to receiving, from a second mobile device, a request to join the second network service, wherein the request to join the second network service comprises the credential, the collaboration manager server joins the second mobile device to the second network service and bridges traffic between the first mobile device and the second mobile device using the second network service.
