AUTOMATIC INTEGRATION OF IOT DEVICES INTO A NETWORK

摘要

Some embodiments provide a novel method that performs an automated process that identifies features of an IoT device connected to a network, and based on the identified features specifies, without an administrator input, one or more network policies (e.g., security policies) to apply to packets sent or received by the IoT device. The method of some embodiments also performs automated processes that (1) analyze packet flows to and from the IoT devices to identify dynamic network behavior of these devices, and then (2) specify network policies based on the identified dynamic network behavior.
