HALLENGES
The smart home system is a particular environment, most of 
its users are untrained personnel, in the process of using, it is 
difficult to maintain the system and devices, which makes the 
development and implementation of the system more difficult. 
In order to build a reliable smart home system in the future, a 
smart home gateway architecture and automated operation need 
to be enhanced to ensure sufficient security. We usually adopt 
the following methods. 
A. Auto-Configuration Support 
With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, there 
will be more and more smart home devices connected to the 
smart home networks. When householders add and manage 
these smart devices, they are prone to incorrect operations due 
to lack of technical support, which brings significant security 
risks. Therefore, in order to make the smart home system easier 
to implement, it is necessary to realize auto-configuration 
without manual operation, which can not only simplify the 
installation and maintenance of smart home devices, but also 
improve the security in the process of auto-configuration.
