send and receive data as well as act as conduits for the passage of data to and from other m2m devices as a result only those authorized m2m device handheld device paired combinations in the mesh network are capable of forming mesh network connections 501 503 505 via the associated m2m device 502 504 506 of each paired combination connecting m2m device handheld device paired combinations with similarly configured m2m device handheld device paired combinations a mesh network event occurs within the system when multiple more than two m2m devices connect within the proposed system at the same time it refers to any scenario where one m2m device connects with one other m2m device i e a 1 1 mesh connection when one m2m device connects to more than one other m2m device i e a 1 many mesh connection or when more than one m2m device connects with more than one other m2m devices i e a many many mesh connection in some embodiments between any two or more system m2m devices an encryption protocol generates identity and authentication u201c keys u201d that are passed and maintained while devices are connected in one exemplary implementation these keys are issued in accordance with the rsa public key encryption standard likewise a different key exchange algorithm is generated between any handheld device subsystem and its accompanying m2m device subsystem in one exemplary implementation these keys are also issued in accordance with.
