Abstract
A gateway device includes a first interface to connect to an internet protocol (IP) network and a second interface having a first communication protocol to connect to one or more devices. The gateway device receives an instruction to initiate an attribute update for a device from a remote server via the first interface, the first instruction having a first format. The gateway device determines the attribute update and a virtual device identifier associated with the first device from the first instruction. The gateway device determines the first communication protocol and a first device based at least in part on the first virtual device identifier. The gateway device generates a command for the first device to perform the first attribute update, the command having a second format based at least in part on the first communication protocol, and sends the command to the first device via the second interface.
