Machine to machine (M2M) is direct communication between devices using any communications channel, including wired and wireless. Machine to machine communication can include industrial instrumentation, enabling a sensor or meter to communicate the information it records (such as temperature, inventory level, etc.) to application software that can use it (for example, adjusting an industrial process based on temperature or placing orders to replenish inventory). Such communication was originally accomplished by having a remote network of machines relay information back to a central hub for analysis, which would then be rerouted into a system like a personal computer.
Bootstrapping handoffs in lightweight machine to machine systems
A method of managing bootstrapping of a client of a utility metering device in a Lightweight Machine to Machine (LwM2M) system and comprising: configuring the client with a security object comprising a first bootstrap security object instance associated with a first bootstrap server, the first bootstrap security object instance comprising data for use by the client in establishing communication with the first bootstrap server; establishing, by the client and with the first bootstrap server, communication using the first bootstrap security object instance; configuring the client, by the first bootstrap server, with one or more further security object instances; validating, by the client, the one or more further security object instances; persisting, by the client, when the one or more further security object instances are validated, the one or more further security object instances in place of the first bootstrap security object instance.
