US Patent 11936633 Centralized management of private networks

Described herein are systems, methods, and software to manage private networks for computing elements. In one example, a computing element may obtain credential information associated with a user and generate a public-private key pair for the computing element. The computing element may further communicate the public key from the pair with metadata to a coordination service to register the computing element at the coordination service. Once registered, the computing element may receive communication information associated with one or more other computing elements that permit the computing element to communicate with the other computing elements.
