摘要：A system and methods for managing a large number of computing devices. Amanagement station includes a talker for sending management commands and a listenerfor receiving command acknowledgements and/or responses. Commands are issued to
multicast addresses, for delivery to multiple devices without having to originate multiplemessages at the management station. Each command includes an identifier (e.g.,sequence number) to distinguish it from other commands and allow the station todetermine which commands a device has not acknowledged. A managed deviceacknowledges a command by transmitting the identifier to the management station. Adevice may acknowledge every command or may periodically or occasionally
acknowledge the most recent command it received and/or applied. A managed devicemay not be continuously coupled to the management station (e.g., it may be offline orturned off). When reconnected, missed commands may be sent to the device (e.g., viaunicast).
