Zusammenfassung:Computing device and methods for performing synchronization and resynchronization of networking information with a server. During standard operations, local networking data discovered by the computing device are transmitted to the server, and server networking data (discovered by the server) are received from the server. Upon occurrence of a pre-defined event at the computing device preventing exchange of information between the computing device and the server, a resynchronization of the local networking data and server networking data is performed. The synchronization and resynchronization mechanisms are based on unique version numbers respectively generated by the computing device and the server.
