Networked Device Access Method with Dynamic Configuration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current access devices have fixed functions and high security risks due to the need for installing control software like drivers on computer hosts, which can expose real data sources and network communication data, leading to potential malicious attacks.
Innovation Solution
A device access method that configures configuration information for networked devices based on a preset generation strategy, including scenario configuration information with a first descriptor set and a function instruction set, and preloads this information to establish a communication connection with a target device, thereby redefining device functions and enhancing security.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If control software such as drivers is installed in the computer host to enable application expansion of the access device, then the device functionality is improved, but the security risk increases due to potential data exposure and malicious attacks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the control software from the computer host and relocates it to a secure server environment. The server hosts the control software and communicates with the access device through encrypted channels, eliminating the need for drivers on the client computer and thereby removing the security vulnerability while preserving device expansion capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the access device and the computer host. The server acts as a mediator that handles all control software operations, device configuration, and data processing, allowing the access device to be controlled remotely without installing any software on the client computer, thus maintaining security while enabling functionality.
2Device complexity
If the access device uses fixed factory functions, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to different scenarios is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal access device that can perform multiple functions by dynamically loading different scenario configurations from the server. The device maintains simple hardware but achieves multi-functionality through software configurations that can be updated remotely, allowing it to adapt to different scenarios such as storage, playback, or data collection without changing its physical structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent makes the device configuration dynamic by allowing scenario parameters to be modified in real-time through server communication. The access device can switch between different operational modes and configurations on-demand based on server instructions, transforming a static factory-configured device into a dynamically adaptable system while keeping the device itself simple.

AI summary
The present disclosure discloses a device access method, a data exchange method, and related devices. The device access method configures configuration information of the networked device based on a preset generation strategy. The configuration information includes scenario configuration information of the networked device in at least one application scenario, and the scenario configuration information includes at least one of a first descriptor set and a functional instruction set, and data source configuration information. By preloading the scenario configuration information, device functions of a networked device can be redefined based on the target configuration information, making the device functions more diverse. Based on loaded scenario configuration information, the networked device establishes a communication connection between the networked device and the target device, so that the networked device can be connected to the target device, therefore effectively avoiding being cracked by malicious programs, ensuring security of the networked device and data.
