Log Data access through an IoT network

I am a student of Penn State University, Berks Campus, with a current task of accessing the Log Data from Pathpilot through a IoT network my other collogues have created (and still working on). I need to find out what device(s), or software/protocols, I need to allow someone to access the Log Data from a another device (mobile or stationary) through the IoT network.

Please take note how I am completely new to IoT systems, thus my knowledge about subject/topics relating to IoT’s (or IIoT) is bare.

I would appreciate any advice and help regarding this with addition to my own research.

Thank you
