Abstract:
A first computer-based device is authenticated at a second computer-based device communicatively coupled thereto through use of a unique identifier and an encrypted token, each received from the first device. Following the authentication, configuration information for the first device is sent from the second device to the first device and the first device is authorized to join a network that includes the second device. Further, permissions related to the network may be granted to the first device.
