Abstract

A system includes radio devices where radio links between the devices are configured by bringing the radio devices in close proximity with hosts for a few seconds. A proximity detector in the device detects the proximity and an automatic registration process begins to configure a link between the device and nearby host. One-to-one or one-to-many links may be established. Links may be cancelled by repeating the process. The devices may include an indicator to indicate establishment of the link.
