Abstract
Utilizing a network service interface function within a machine-to-machine common service layer is presented herein. A method can comprise determining network configuration information for network devices coupled to a set of distributed remote devices; receiving a device request directed to a remote device of the set of distributed remote devices; determining, based on the network configuration information, a network interface for facilitating performance of the device request; and sending, via the network interface, command information corresponding to the device request directed to the remote device. In an example, in response to determining that a traffic load of a communication channel associated with the remote device satisfies a defined condition with respect to an increased loading of such channel, the method can comprise sending a message to request delay of the device request if the device request has been determined to be a non-priority request.
