Original Abstract Submitted
One or more processors of a device management platform map network identifiers to corresponding networks. An account of the device management platform manages devices on a plurality of networks based on the network identifiers. The one or more processors of the device management platform identify a network of a device associated with the account from the plurality of networks based on a mapping of a network identifier of the device to the network. The one or more processors of the device management platform perform an action for the device with respect to the network.
