Forming a security network including integrated security system components and network devices
An integrated security system is described that integrates broadband and mobile access and control with conventional security systems and premise devices to provide a tri-mode security network (broadband, cellular/GSM, POTS access) that enables users to remotely stay connected to their premises. The integrated security system, while delivering remote premise monitoring and control functionality to conventional monitored premise protection, complements existing premise protection equipment. The integrated security system integrates into the premise network and couples wirelessly with the conventional security panel, enabling broadband access to premise security systems. Automation devices (cameras, lamp modules, thermostats, etc.) can be added, enabling users to remotely see live video and/or pictures and control home devices via their personal web portal or webpage, mobile phone, and/or other remote client device. Users can also receive notifications via email or text message when happenings occur, or do not occur, in their home.
1. A method comprising:
determining, by a gateway device located at a premises, data associated with a computing device located at the premises;
sending, by the gateway device, to a premises system located at the premises, and based on the data associated with the computing device, a message;
determining, based on a failure to receive a response to the message, that the computing device is not associated with the premises system; and
sending, to a device located external to the premises, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein sending the message comprises sending the message using a protocol associated with the computing device, wherein the message mimics communication from the computing device to the premises system.
3. The method of claim 1 further comprising ignoring, based on the determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device.
4. The method of claim 1 further comprising storing, by the gateway device and based on the determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising interacting, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, with the computing device based on a provisioning rule associated with the gateway device.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising adding, based on the determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device as an independent device to the premises system.
7. A gateway device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the gateway device to:
determine data associated with a computing device located at a premises;
send to a premises system located at the premises, and based on the data associated with the computing device, a message;
determine, based on a failure to receive a response to the message, that the computing device is not associated with the premises system; and
send, to a device located external to the premises, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
8. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the gateway device to send the message using a protocol associated with the computing device, wherein the message mimics communication from the computing device to the premises system.
9. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the gateway device to ignore, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device.
10. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the gateway device to store, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
11. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the gateway device to interact, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, with the computing device based on a provisioning rule associated with the gateway device.
12. The device of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the gateway device to add, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device as an independent device to the premises system.
13. A system comprising:
a computing device located at a premises;
a premises system located at the premises; and
a gateway device located at the premises configured to communicate with the computing device and the premises system, wherein the gateway device is configured to:
determine data associated with the computing device;
send to the premises system, and based on the data associated with the computing device, a message;
determine, based on a failure to receive a response to the message, that the computing device is not associated with the premises system; and
send, to a device located external to the premises, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the gateway device is further configured to send the message using a protocol associated with the computing device, wherein the message mimics communication from the computing device to the premises system.
15. The system of claim 13 , wherein the gateway device is further configured to ignore, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein the gateway device is further configured to store, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
17. The system of claim 13 , wherein the gateway device is further configured to interact, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, with the computing device based on a provisioning rule associated with the gateway device.
18. The system of claim 13 , wherein the gateway device is further configured to add, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device as an independent device to the premises system.
19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:
determining, by a gateway device located at a premises, data associated with a computing device located at the premises;
sending, by the gateway device, to a premises system located at the premises, and based on the data associated with the computing device, a message;
determining, based on a failure to receive a response to the message, that the computing device is not associated with the premises system; and
sending, to a device located external to the premises, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein sending the message comprises sending the message using a protocol associated with the computing device, wherein the message mimics communication from the computing device to the premises system.
21. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the instructions further comprise ignoring, based on the determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, the computing device.
22. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the instructions further comprise storing, by the gateway device and based on the determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, an indication that the computing device is not associated with the premises system.
23. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the instructions further comprise interacting, based on determining that the computing device is not associated with the premises system, with the computing device based on a provisioning rule associated with the gateway device.
