[dsdp-tm-dev] initial discovery service
|
Hi All,
Symbian couldn't attend the phone meeting
yesterday, but we would like to raise a question about the initial discovery
of remote embedded systems and how to manage them.
We think it would be interesting having
a remote system discovery facility, allowing to retrieve information through
a standard protocol such as the description of the system and the list
of available services.
Also executing basic hardware services
on the remote systems (mainly restart and reflash) could be interesting.
The discovery facility could consist
on:
* A contribution to the RSE "New
Connection" wizard, at the same
position where RSE allows checking if the provided IP exists
* A standard TCP/IP based protocol (to
be investigated) to report the available services on the embedded system
and start them as requested by the user. At this stage possibly the SPIRIT
information could also be retrieved.
* A view to manage registered embedded
systems and perform basic hardware actions as restart or reflash.
As in the current release only the IP
address is checked, possibly an early handshake with the embedded system
could be useful.
Is anybody else interested in this feature
?
