Common use of ETSI M2M high-level architecture view Clause in Contracts

ETSI M2M high-level architecture view. Figure 1 shows high-level M2M architecture as defined by ETSI technical specification [7]. This architecture consists of two distinct domains, which are the device and gateway domain and the network domain. As the name implies, components of the device and gateway domain are IoT/M2M devices and gateways. IoT/M2M gateways enable communication of M2M devices with other parts of the system via access networks, i.e. wide area network. There can be one or more M2M devices connected to a M2M gateway. In principle, M2M devices connected via gateway do not implement the so called M2M applications and M2M service capability functionality. However, if a M2M device implements the M2M applications and M2M service capability functionality, then this device can be connected directly to the access network and interact with the rest of the system. The network domain consist of the wide area communication network (access and core networks), M2M service capabilities and M2M applications functions. M2M management and network management functions are also components of the network domain.
