摘要

A gateway device including a network interface having wired and/or wireless connections to smart devices and a network access point. The gateway device also includes a processor and a memory device having a local database. The processor is configured to execute a network controller for connecting and communicating with the smart devices and the network access point, a firewall engine for enforcing firewall rules stored in the local database for filtering communication between the smart devices and the network access point, and a management interface. The management interface generates internal firewall rules based on device profile information received from a remote database.
