Patent ID: 11950096

Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure are drawn to client device for use with a network controller and an external server, the network controller being configured to manage a wireless network, to change a critical parameter of the wireless network, to transmit a request for a one time password (OTP). The external server being configured to generate the OTP in response to the request for the OTP, to provide a notification of the OTP and to transmit the OTP to the network controller. The network controller being configured to additionally receive the OTP from the external server. The client device including a memory having a data structure stored therein, the data structure including a list of configurable critical parameters of the wireless network, and including a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the client device to receive a request to configure a configurable parameter of the wireless network. The client device also determines whether the configurable parameter of the wireless network matches a configurable critical parameter of the wireless network within the list of configurable critical parameters of the wireless network. The client device further transmits, when the configurable parameter of the wireless network matches a configurable critical parameter of the wireless network within the list of configurable critical parameters of the wireless network, the request for the OTP. The client device may also receive the notification of the OTP from the external server and access the OTP based on the notification and may transmit the OTP to the network controller.
