Abstract:
A technique uses a managed computing device to extend management control by an organization to IoT (Internet of Things) devices in a local environment of the computing device. The computing device discovers any local IoT devices and participates in a communication with a server to bring one or more of the IoT devices under management control. In some examples, extending management control involves enrolling selected IoT devices into a management framework of the organization and directing communications between the server and the respective IoT devices through the managed device, which provides a point-of-presence for administering management of the selected IoT devices in the local environment.
