Abstract

A method is proposed for the identification of a connected object in a network infrastructure which comprises at least two networks of connected objects interconnected by the intermediary of a data transport network. The method enables a connected object to search for and identify one or more other connected objects of the network infrastructure on the basis of specific search criteria. In particular, a connection gateway can, first, receive (201) and process (202) a request, which contains the search criteria, coming from a connected object and, secondly, transmit (203) to said connected object identification information for other connected objects that meet these criteria.
