Abstract:
Method of communication between a host device, a first client device, a second client device and one or more peripheral devices and host device for use in such method, the host device comprising communication means for communicating with the client device and the one or more peripheral devices; a processor/controller connected to a memory suitable for storing configuration information and for controlling the communication means, the host device adapted to providing information in a wireless network with respect to availability of one or more sets of the peripheral devices to be connected with the client device; receiving via the wireless network a request from a first client device to connect to a first set of peripheral devices; determining that the first client device is docked to the first set; determining a second set of peripheral device that are free/available for connection to a second client device while the first client device is docked; providing information in the wireless network with respect to the second set. Advantageously, the host device is adapted to communicate with the first client and the second client with a Wi-Fi connection, the host device adapted to add the information with respect to the set of free/available peripherals in the beacon frames, probe request/response frames or through pre-association service discovery response frame.
