    Abstract: Conventional wireless interface (WiFi) controllers cannot resolve authentication for trusted client devices without calculation from a host processor. Leaving the host processor on or awaking it from a sleep state each time a non-authenticated trusted client device attempts to connect wastes power. A hostless authenticated wake service allows a host controller to enter a sleep state while the WiFi controller responds to multicast domain name service-service discovery (mDNS-SD) queries from trusted client devices. Once a client device is authenticated, the WiFi controller may respond to a trusted client request to awake the host processor for further command processing and service provision. Not only does this approach reduce power consumption by allowing the host processor to remain in the sleep state, it allows trusted client devices to discover its presence while ensuring security.

    Abstract translation: 传统的无线接口(WiFi)控制器无法解决来自主机处理器的计算的信任客户端设备的认证。 每次无身份验证的可信客户端设备尝试连接浪费电源时,启动主机处理器或将其从睡眠状态唤醒。 无人认证的唤醒服务允许主机控制器进入休眠状态,而WiFi控制器响应来自可信客户端设备的多播域名服务服务发现(mDNS-SD)查询。 一旦客户端设备被认证,WiFi控制器可以响应受信任的客户端请求来唤醒主机处理器以进一步的命令处理和服务提供。 这种方法不仅可以通过允许主机处理器处于睡眠状态来降低功耗,而且允许受信任的客户端设备在确保安全性的同时发现其存在。
