CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application is a national stage application under 35 U.S.C. § 371 of PCT International Application Serial No. PCT/EP16/57292, filed on Apr. 1, 2016 and entitled “DEVICE IDENTIFICATION THROUGH DIALOG,” which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates in general to the field network communication, and more particularly, to device identification through dialog.

BACKGROUND

The Internet has enabled interconnection of different computer networks all over the world. In particular, the Internet provides a medium for exchanging data between different users connected to different computer networks. While the use of the Internet has transformed business and personal communications, it can also create confusion or frustration among some users. For example, for a user to start using a device, the device typically needs to be paired with a system through some interaction. When a new device is connected to the system, that device has to be identified as an instance of a particular type, ownership may need to be verified, and then control has to be taken by the system. Typically, this is done through a corresponding application or a web interface which some users find confusing and frustrating.
