- - METHODS FOR BRIDGING A HAVi SUB-NETWORK AND A UPnP SUB-NETWORK AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING SAID METHODS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for bridging a HAVi sub-network and a UPnP sub-network. To enable a UPnP device to be enabled for the HAVi sub-network, the next step is to: discover a UPnP device and / or service on the UPnP sub-network; Network, the discovered UPnP device is declared as a HAVi device control module (DCM) on the HAVi sub-network, and the discovered UPnP service is sent to the HAVi functional component on the HAVi sub-A step of declaring as a module (FCM: Functional Component Module) is implemented. The method comprising: discovering a HAVi software element of a HAVi sub-network corresponding to a selection criterion so that the HAVi device is enabled for a UPnP sub-network; Within each sub-network bridging device, each of the discovered elements is represented by one UPnP proxy service identified by one port number assigned by the sub-network bridging device; And releasing each of the proxy services on the UPnP sub-network. The invention also relates to a device for implementing the steps.
