Supporting multiple gateways

[rakeshpai]

Since it is possible to have multiple mysensors gateways communicating with the same controller, how do you identify each gateway uniquely? Do gateways have some sort of unique identifier?

Usage: I'm planning to put together a controller, and want to support multiple gateways for completeness. Since serial port names and IP addresses might all change over time, how do I associate metadata with a gateway in case of disconnection and reconnection?

I'm thinking that there should be some sort of unique id associated with a gateway, which I can query over the serial API. Does such a thing exist?

Currently, this does not exist.

But this might be added in the future, especially useful for gateways connecting to a cloud service of some kind.
