Wireless White List Synchronization for Information Processing Devices
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Updating white lists for multiple information processing devices with the same contents individually requires significant labor and time.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system where one device performs predetermined updating for its connection permission device information, and another device acquires and applies the same updating contents to its own connection permission device information via wireless communication, allowing for synchronized updates across multiple devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If updating is performed individually for each information processing device, then each device can be updated independently, but much labor and time are required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the update operations for multiple information processing devices into a single centralized update process. The management device performs one update operation that automatically propagates to multiple client devices, merging what would otherwise be multiple separate update operations into one unified process, thereby reducing total labor and time requirements
2Device complexity
If updating is performed individually for each information processing device, then update control is simple, but much labor is required
Solution Approach 1:
The management device serves as an intermediary between the update source and multiple client devices. It receives update information from a central source and automatically distributes it to connected client devices, simplifying the overall control architecture while eliminating the need for manual individual updates to each device
3Adaptability or versatility
If updating is performed individually for each information processing device, then each device maintains independent control, but labor increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where client devices report their update status and connection state to the management device. This feedback loop enables the management device to automatically track which devices have been updated and ensure all connected devices receive the update, maintaining operational simplicity while preserving independent device control through automated status monitoring

AI summary
The present technology relates to an information processing system, an information processing device, and an information processing method that make it possible to reduce labor and time for updating of white lists of a plurality of information processing devices with the same contents.The information processing system includes a plurality of information processing devices each having connection permission device information including identification information of a connection permission device to which connection by wireless communication is to be permitted. In a case in which predetermined updating is performed for the connection permission device information of a predetermined information processing device from among the plurality of information processing devices, another information processing device from among the plurality of information processing devices acquires contents of the predetermined updating and performs updating for the connection permission device information with the same contents as those of the predetermined updating.
