1. Introduction

1.1. Scope

Low-power sensors, actuators and other connected devices introduced in environments and use cases such as building management, healthcare, workplaces, manufacturing, logistics and hospitality are often battery-powered. Often they do not support wireless of wired interfaces that support the IP protocol. Most of these environments however mainly support IP-based networking infrastructure. Therefore, applications on the IP network that aim to communicate or receive telemetry from these non-IP low-power devices must do so through a gateway function on the IP network. This gateway functions then translates the communication to the non-IP protocol that the low-power device supports. Promiment examples of such protocols are [BLE53] and [Zigbee22].

Figure 1: Gateway for non-IP Devices

There have been efforts to define Gateway functions for devices that support a particular protocol, such as a BLE GATT REST API for BLE Gateways https://www.bluetooth.com/bluetooth-resources/gatt-rest-api/, however they have been limited to a single protocol or a particular use case. In abscence of an open standard describing how applications on an IP network communicate with non-IP devices, bespoke and vendors specifia implementations have proliferated. This results in parallel infrastructure of both gateways and non-IP networks being deployed on a case by case basis, each connecting separately into the IP network, with a distinct set of APIs. At the same time, wireless access points supporting IP-based wireless connectivity are deployed ubiquitiouslyr. Many of these wireless access points are equipped with multiple wireless radios, of different types. These radios can transmit and receive different frame types, such as [BLE53] and [Zigbee22]. This specification aims to define a Gateway API for these Non-IP protocols that can be leveraged by this wireless infrastructure in order to connect Non-IP devices into IP networks.

A standardized Non-IP Gateway interface has following benefits: - Avoid the need for parallel Non-IP infrastructure. - Avoid the need for Applications to perform bespoke integrations for different environments. - Faster and more cost-effective adoption of Non-IP devices in IP network environments.

1.2. Non-IP Gateway functions

A non-IP gateway MUST provide at least following functions: - Authentication and authorization of application clients that will leverage the gateway API to communicate with Non-IP devices. - The ability to onboard Non-IP devices on the Non-IP Gateway. Onboarding ensures that the Non-IP Gateway can identify a device and has sufficient context about the device to service gateway API requests. It also ensures segmentation of devices that were onboarded by particular applications. - A persistent inventory of onboarded devices mapping to the application that onboarded them and the access point/radio that is serving them. - An API that allows for bi-directional communication to non-IP devices. - One or more channels to process requests, responses, and asymmetric communications with the non-IP radio resources (Access Points) in its inventory. - The ability to stream telemetry received from non-IP devices in real-time to applications on the IP network.

The onboarding function is out of scope of this document, but can be provided by a provisioning interface such as [RFC7644] leveraging [I-D.ietf-scim-device-model]. All other defined functions are supported by Non IP-Control (NIPC).

The Application gateway is a network functions, so its goal is to proxy payloads between Non-IP and IP networks. It is not intended to be a middleware functioni that interprets, decodes or modifies these payloads.

Figure 2: Basic Architecture

Figure 2 shows us applications, the application layer gateway (ALG), an access point (AP), and a device (D). The applications, application layer gateway and access point are deployed on an IP-Network. The AP also has a Non-IP interface, which it uses to communicate with the device. The Application is deployed in a different administrative domain than the network elements (ALG & AP). The role of the ALG is to provide a gateway function to applications wishing to communicate with non-IP devices in the network domain served by the ALG. Applications implementing Non-IP Control can leverage RESTful interfaces to communicate with Non-IP devices in the network domain and subscribe to events levering MQTT.

1.3. Interaction flow

In order to enable a network wishing to offer NIPC ALG functions, the network administrator authorizes application(s) to perform operations on the Gateway. This happens out of band and may be accomplished by means of exchanging tokens or public keys. Authorization can be role-based. The 3 primary roles are:
1. Onboarding: Authorize an onboarding application against a SCIM server co-located with the gateway.
2. Control: Authorize applications that may control devices. 3. Data: Authorize applications that may receive telemetry.
It is possible to further refine roles down to an API basis.

Applications can perform the API requests they were authorized for. In order for application to perform a NIPC operation on a device, the device must be first onboarded, for example by means of SCIM.

Previous steps are prerequisites and not within the scope of this specification, but are provided for context.i Subsequent operations are defined by NIPC.

  1. An application authorized for Control can perform NIPC calls to the gateway in order to establish bi-directional communication to one or more devices. Optionally, also set up a publish/subcribe topic to receive streaming data from a device (telemetry interface).

  2. An application authorized can receive streaming data on a pub/sub topic configured by the control interface (telemetry interface).

1.4. Terminology

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

2. Architecture

2.1. Overview

Non-IP protocols, such as BLE or Zigbee, typically define a number of basic operations that are similar across protocols. Examples of this are read and write data. NIPC leverages a unified API to support those operations.

NIPC defines actions, which are implemented as REST over HTTP request-response APIs. NIPC Also defines events, which are implemented as MQTT topics.

In case NIPC is not leveraged in combination with a data model such as ASDF [I-D.ietf-asdf-sdf], which can define the properties of a devices, NIPC also support registrationsr. REgistrations perform mapping of properties to protocol-specific attributes.

All operations pertain to a devices or a group of devices, which are addressed by UUIDs. These UUID's were generated at time of onboarding and returned to the application, for example in a SCIM response.

2.2. NIPC Operations

NIPC adheres to nomenclature defined by Semantic Definition Format (SDF) for Data and Interactions of Things [I-D.ietf-asdf-sdf]. Therefore NIPC defines actions and events on properties.

2.2.1. Actions

NIPC supports 3 types of action: - connection: Allows an application to establish to manage connections with a device (if so required by the technology). - property: Allows applications to read or write device properties. In case the property supports streaming data, a subscription property can be managed. - broadcast: This allows the application to send a broadcast message to a device or group of devices.

2.2.2. Registrations

In absence of a model such as SDF that defines device properties, NIPC allows an application to register them. NIPC defines 2 types of registrations: - property: Manage registrations of properties and their protocol mappings. For example, a property called temperature can be mapped to a BLE Service Characteristic. - event: Manage registrations of events and their MQTT properties such as MQTT topic definition.

2.2.3. Extensions

The final set of operations are not fundamental NIPC operations, but are extensions. Extensions are compound API's. They leverage basic NIPC operations but combine multiple operations in to one API call for efficiency. An example of this is the the bulk operation, allowing to send multiple operations is one operation. extension allows for extensions, either generic extensions that anre IANA registered, or vendor specific extensions

2.2.4. Events

Events are published over MQTT. Events can be normal sreaming data, but also broadcasts or connection events.

2.3. Protocols

NIPC actions, registrations and extensions are request/response APIs. They makes use of a JSON schema over RESTful HTTP[RFC9114].

NIPC events are encoded in CBOR ([RFC8949]) and delivered over MQTT.

2.4. Schema

2.4.1. Device schema

Most operations (except registations) are executed against a device or a group. NIPC operations refer to either of these as "Object" with an ID as an identifier. The common schema for Object is defined as follows:

Table 1: Definition of an Object
Attribute Req Type Example
id T uuid 12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4
type T enum device, group
technology F enum ble, zigbee

where- - id is the unique uuid of the device. This is generated when registering the device, for example against a SCIM server. As such this ID is known both to the application as well as the NIPC Server. - type is either "group" or "device". - technology is the radio technology supported by the device. The mappings defined in this spec are "ble" or "zigbee". Mappings are extendable to new technologies.

Example device object:

{
  "id": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
  "type": "device",
  "technology": "ble",
}
Figure 3: Example device object

2.4.2. Property mapping

An object can support one or more communications protocols. Even though Non-IP communications protocols all perform operations on properties, implementations differ between protocols. For example BLE will address a property as a service characteristic, while a property in Zigbee is addressed as a property in a cluster of an endpoint.

In order for NIPC to support protocol-agnostic APIs, a property mapping is required between a NIPC property and a protocol-specific property. A property mapping can be done by means of a property registration API.

Property mapping allows for integration of new protocols in NIPC, new mappings can be created without the need to update the base schema.

     - property
        |
        |> BLE
        |     - BLE property
        |
        |> Zigbee
              - Zigbee property

Figure 4: Property Mapping

As shown in Figure 4, protocol-specific properties must be described in a protocol object, for example a "ble" or a "zigbee" object.

Table 2: Protocol objects
Attribute Req Type Example
ble T object an object with BLE-specific attributes
zigbee T object an object with Zigbee-specific attributes

where-

  • "ble" is an object containing properties that are specific to the BLE protocol.

  • "zigbee" is an object containing properties that are specific to the Zigbee protocol.

  • Other protocol mapping objects can be added by creating a new protocol object

Example property mapping:

{
  "propertyID": "temperature",
  "ble": {
    "serviceID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
    "characteristicID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
    "long": false
  }
}
Figure 5: Example property mapping

Protocol mapping allows applications to perform a one-time registration to a propertyID for a property, and leverage the propertyID in all API calls that perform an operation on this property. It might be useful for applications to directly use protocol objects in action API's as well, therefore there are a limited set of API's avaialbe that have protocol objects directly embedded in the API, in ordur to perform operations on properties without having to first register them.

2.4.3. Response

As most operations have a common base schema, based on a device ID and a property, so do responses. Every NIPC API returns a status in the response, as well as a requestID, which allows for tracking and logging of requests and responses. If the operation was performed on a device or group, the ID is also returned. If the operation is to read or write a property, the resulting value is also returned.

Success response:

Table 3: Success response
Attribute Req Type Example
status T enum SUCCESS
id F uuid 12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4
requestID F uuid abcd0987-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4

Example success response:

{
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "requestID": "12345678-5678-1234-5578-abcdef1234",
  "id": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
}
Figure 6: Example success response

Failure responses additionally include an error code and optionally a reason, which contains a textual explanation of the error.

Failure response:

Table 4: Failure response
Attribute Req Type Example
status T enum SUCCESS
id F uuid 12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4
requestID F uuid abcd0987-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4
errorCode T int 12
reason T string "Not Found"

where-

  • status is the status of the request, either "SUCCESS" or "FAILURE". In case of failure an error code and reason are added.

  • id is the id the operation was executed against, found in the request

  • requestID is a correlation ID that can be used for end-to-end tracing.

  • errorCode is a numerical value representing the error.

  • reason is a human readable explanation of why the error occurred.

Example failure response:

{
  "status": "FAILURE",
  "reason": "Not Found",
  "errorCode": 12,
  "requestID": "12345678-5678-1234-5578-abcdef1234"
}
Figure 7: Example failure response

3. NIPC Actions

The primary goal of NIPC actions is to exchange data with a Non-IP device, by means of reading, writing or streaming NIPC properties to applications. An explicit connection may be required, which is also an action. An application may also want to transmit a broadcast.

3.1. Connections

A connection is an operation that establishes or tears down an association or connection with a device. Optionally during connection setup properties supported by a device can be discovered.

/action/connection

The connection API allows an application to request to connect to a device.

Operations:

  • Connect to a device: POST

  • Return active connections: GET

  • Disconnect a device: DELETE

3.1.1. Connection API

3.1.1.1. Connect to a device

Method: POST /action/connection

Description: Connect to a device

Parameters: None

Request Body: - an Object, as defined in Table 1 - optionally a set of properties to be discovered. These are supplied in protocol objects, as defined in Table 2. In the case of BLE, if no protocol object is included, service discovery is performed to discover all supported properties when connecting to a device. Optionally, service discovery may be limited to properties defined in the "ble" protocol extension. The services to be discovered can be added in an array. Property discover can be buffered across connections, so the API also supports caching parameters. - Connection retry parameters

Example body of a connection without specific discovery of properties:

{
  "id": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
  "type": "device",
  "technology": "ble",
  "retries": 3,
  "retryMultipleAPs": true
}
Figure 8: Example Connection

where-

  • "id", "type" and "technology" are part of the object definition (device or group), as defined in Table 1.

  • "retries" defines the number of retries in case the operations does not succeed

  • "retryMultipleAPs" can be used in case there is an infrastructure with multiple access points or radios that can reach the device. If set to "true" a different access point may be used for retries.

In case the application would like to discover specific properties of a device, a protocol object can be added that defines what properties should be discovered.

Example body of a BLE connection with specific discovery of properties:

{
  "id": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
  "type": "device",
  "technology": "ble",
  "ble": {
    "services": [
      {
        "serviceID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4"
      }
    ],
    "cached": false,
    "cacheIdlePurge": 3600,
    "autoUpdate": true,
    "bonding": "default"
  },
  "retries": 3,
  "retryMultipleAPs": true
}
Figure 9: Example Connection with explicit discovery of connections

where in the BLE protocol object:

  • "services" is an array of services defined by their serviceIDs.

  • "cached" refers to whether the services need to be cached for subsequent connects, in order not to perform service discovery on each request.

  • "cacheIdlepurge" defines how long the cache should be maintained before purging

  • some devices support notifications on changes in services, "autoUpdate" allows the network to update services based on notification (on by default)

  • "bonding" allows you to override the bonding method configured when onboarding the device

Response: Success responses include standard success response properties as defined in Table 3 as well as a protocol object with an array of discovered properties, as defined in the specific protocol. For example, for BLE, this is an array of supported services, which in turn contains an array of charateristics, which in turn contains an array of descriptors, as shown in Figure 10.

    services
     - serviceID
        |
        |> characteristics
            - charactericID
            - flags
               |
               |> Descriptors
                   - descriptorID
Figure 10: BLE Services

Example of a BLE connection response with BLE discovered properties:

{
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "requestID": "12345678-5678-1234-5578-abcdef1234",
  "id": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
  "ble": [
    {
      "serviceID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
      "characteristics": [
        {
          "characteristicID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
          "flags": [
            "read",
            "write"
          ],
          "descriptors": [
            {
              "descriptorID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4"
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

3.3. Subscriptions

/action/property/subscription

Subscriptions are properties that deliver a data stream instead of a single value. The property subscription API allows an application to manage these data streams.

Operations:

  • Start a subscription data stream: POST

  • Get status of a subscription data stream: GET

  • Stop a subscription data stream: DELETE

3.3.1. Property subscription API

3.3.1.1. Starting a subscription data stream

Method: POST /action/property/subscription

Description: Start a subcription data stream pertaining to a specific property

Parameters: None

Request Body: - an Object, as defined in Table 1 - A propertyID for which to start the subscription - optional parameters

Example body for starting a subscription of a property:

{

  "type": "device",
  "technology": "ble",
  "propertyID": "temperature",
  "forcedAck": true
}
Figure 19: Example starting a subscription for a property

where- - "id", "type" and "technology" are part of the object definition (device or group), as defined in Table 1 - "propertyID" is the ID of a previously registered property mapping - "forcedAck" requests a specific response behavior of the device that is not the default

Response: Success responses is a standard success response when the subscription is started, as defined in Table 3.

A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to Table 4 definition of failed response.

3.3.1.2. Get status of a subscription data stream

Parameters, in query: An id of a device on which the subscription has to be started.

Response: Success responses is a standard success response when the subscription is started, as defined in Table 3.

A failure to find the subscription will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to Table 4 definition of failed response.

3.3.1.3. stop a subscription data stream

Method: DELETE /action/property/subscription/{property}

Description: stops a subscription data stream

Parameters, in path: A propertyID {property} for the subscription.

Parameters, in query: An id of a device on which the subscription has to be started.

Response: Success response is a standard success response when the subscription is deleted, as defined in Table 3.

A failure to delete the subscription will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to Table 4 definition of failed response.

4. NIPC Registrations

NIPC allows an application to register properties to use in action API's. NIPC supports 2 types of registrations: Registrations for properties and registrations for events.

4.1. Event registration

/registration/event

The event registration API allows an application to register an event for a data application to a specified property. This event is mapped to an MQTT pub/sub topic. By activating a subscription on one or more device(s) for that property, streaming data will get published to the associated pub/sub topic on MQTT.

Operations:

  • Register an event: POST

  • Update an event: PUT

  • Get configuration of one or more events: GET

  • Delete an event: DELETE

4.1.1. Event registration API

4.1.1.1. Registering an event

Method: POST /registration/event

Description: Register an event to a property

Parameters: None

Request Body: - An event name that matches to an MQTT pub/sub topic - The data format the event should be delivered in - The device or group id the event is valid for - Whether the event needs to be cached for replay - the data applications that can consume the events

4.2.1.4. Delete property mapping of one or more properties

Method: DELETE /registration/property

Description: Deletes the property mapping of one or more properties

Parameters: A property name. Multiple properties can be added by comma-separated parameters. If no parameters are present, all properties are deleted.

Response: A success response as in Table 3 with an array of properties, containing propertyID with protocol object containing a protocol-specific
property mapping

Example of a delete property response:

{
  "status": "SUCCESS",
  "requestID": "12345678-5678-1234-5578-abcdef1234",
  "properties": [
    {
      "ble": {
        "serviceID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
        "characteristicID": "12345678-1234-5678-1234-56789abcdef4",
        "long": false
      },
      "propertyID": "temperature"
    },
    {
      "zigbee": {
        "endpointID": 1,
        "clusterID": 6,
        "propertyID": 16,
        "type": 1
      },
      "propertyID": "temperature"
    }
  ]
}
Figure 31: Example delete property response

where- - "id", "requestID" and "technology" are part of the standard Table 3 definition - "properties" is an array of properties

where a property- - "id", "requestID" and "technology" are part of the standard Table 3 definition - "propertyID" is the propertyID that will be used in action APIs to refer to this property mapping - A protocol object with a protocol-specific property map, as decribed in Section 2.4.2

A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to Table 4 definition of failed response.

5. NIPC Extensibility

NIPC is extensible in two ways:

5.1. Protocol extensions

As described in Section 2.4.2 NIPC supports mapping protocol specific mapping to NIPC properties. BLE and Zigbee are used as examples, but protocol mapping is extensible to other protocols, so noew non-IP protocols can be supported by NIPC without a schema change.

     -  property
        |
        |> BLE
        |     - BLE  properties
        |
        |> Zigbee
        |     - Zigbee properties
        |
        |> New protocol
        |     -  New protocol properties

Figure 32: Extended protocol mapping

As shown in Figure 32, a protocol mapping can be added by adding a new technology specific extension to the schema.

This is performed by adding the new protocol to the technology enum in the base object definition Table 1

Furthermore, the protocol objects need to be extended with the new protocol as well. Protocol objects will be extended as follows:

Table 5: Adding Protocol mappings
Attribute Req Type Example
ble T object an object with BLE-specific properties
zigbee T object an object with Zigbee-specific properties
newProtocol T object an object with newProtocol-specific props

In the new protocol object, protocol specific properties can be added.

Protocol mappings need to be IANA registered.

5.2. API extensions

/extension

The extension APIs allow for extensibility of the APIs, either IANA registered extensions or vendor-specific extensions. Extension APIs must leverage the basic NIPC defined APIs and combine them in compound statements in order to streamline application operation against devices, make operations more expediant and convenient in one API call. In principle they do not add any basic functionality. In the OpenAPI model Figure 38 below, we have defined a few example extensions.

6. Publish/Subscribe Interface

The publish/subscribe interface, or data streaming interface, is an MQTT publishing interface. Pub/sub topics can be created and managed by means of the /registration/event NIPC element.

In this memo, we propose the data format to be CBOR [RFC8949].

6.1. CDDL Definition

We have a CDDL [RFC8610] definition where we define the DataSubscription struct that will be used by all the messages published to the MQTT broker.

The DataSubscription struct is a CBOR map that will contain the raw data in bytes and a timestamp of the data. Optionally, the message will also have a deviceId that corresponds to the SCIM ID of the device if the payload is associated to a known device.

Other fields in the CDDL such as apMacAddress and rssi can be optionally included but these fields can expose the underlying network topology.

Each message also has a subscription choice group that will define the type of data that is being published.

DataSubscription = {
  data: bytes,
  timestamp: float, ; epoch in seconds
  ? deviceId: text,
  ? apMacAddress: text,
  subscription
}

subscription = (
  bleSubscription: BleSubscription //
  bleAdvertisement: BleAdvertisement //
  bleConnectionStatus: BleConnectionStatus //
  zigbeeSubscription: ZigbeeSubscription //
  rawPayload: RawPayload
)

BleSubscription = {
  serviceId: text,
  characteristicId: text
}

BleAdvertisement = {
  macAddress: text,
  ? rssi: nint,
}

BleConnectionStatus = {
  macAddress: text,
  connected: bool,
  ? reason: int
}

ZigbeeSubscription = {
  endpointId: int,
  clusterId: int,
  attributeId: int
  attributeType: int
}

RawPayload = {
  contextId: text
}

6.2. CBOR Examples

This section contains a few examples of the DataSubscription struct depicted in CBOR diagnostic notation.

7. Examples

This section contains a few examples on how applications can leverage NIPC operations to communicate with BLE and Zigbee devices.

7.1. BLE Advertisement

In this example, we will onboard a device, and setup an advertisement subscription event for that device.

The sequence of operations for this are:

  • Onboard a device using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo)

  • Register an eventc with the device id to subscribe to advertisements POST /register/event

  • Subscribe to the topic from the data receiver app MQTT subscribe topic

7.2. BLE Property Read/Write

In this example, we will connect to a BLE device and read and write from a property.

The sequence of operations for this are:

  • Onboard a device using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo)

  • Connect to the BLE device POST /action/connection

  • Read a property from the BLE device GET /action/property

  • Write to a property on the BLE device POST /action/property

  • Disconnect from the BLE device DELETE /action/connection

7.3. Zigbee Property Read/Write

In this example, we will connect a zigbee device to a Zigbee mesh and read and write from a property

The sequence of operations for this are:

  • Onboard a device using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo)

  • Connect the Zigbee device POST /action/connection

  • Read a property from the Zigbee device GET /action/property

  • Write to a property on the Zigbee device POST /action/property

  • Disconnect from the Zigbee device DELETE /action/connection

8. Security Considerations

TBD.

9. IANA Considerations

This section provides guidance to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) regarding registration of values related to NIPC, in accordancei with [RFC5226].

<CODE BEGINS> file "openapi.yml"

openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Non IP Device Control (NIPC) API
  description: |-
    There has been a large influx of non-IP devices supporting
    processes in manufacturing, healthcare, hospitality, retail, the
    home, and the office.  At the same time, wireless access points
    have been deployed nearly everywhere, many of which have radios
    that can transmit and receive different frame types, such as BLE,
    Zigbee. To integrate multiple of these use cases leveraging a
    single wireless infrastructure and avoid the need for parallel
    infrastructure, a Non IP device gateway function is necessary.
    The gateway provides the following functions:
       - authentication and authorization of application clients that
         will communicate with devices
       - APIs that onboard a device on the network (out of scope for
         this specification, but covered in SCIM for devices)
       - APIs that allow an app to set up a connection with a device
       - APIs that allow an app to exchange action with a device
       - APIs that allow a device to create registrations in the
         network for a device
    These collection of these APIs, in combination with the
    onboarding API (SCIM for devices) will allow an application to
    perform a complete set of operations on Non-IP devices.
