Digital living network alliance (DLNA) home networked device interoperability guidelines - Part 1-1: Architecture and protocols - Core architecture and protocols
IEC 62481-1-1:2017(E) specifies the core architecture and protocols of DLNA implementations.
This third edition cancels and replaces IEC 62481-1 published in 2013 and constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) removal of Bluetooth, printers (DMPr, +PR1+ and +PR2+), Mobile Digital Media Uploader (M-DMU), Mobile Digital Media Downloader (M-DMD), Mobile Network Connectivity Function (M NCF) and Media Interoperability Unit (MIU);
b) removal of CEA2014 guidelines (RUISRC, RUISINK, RUICTRL, RUIPL);
c) addition of IPv6;
d) heading levels adjusted to be no deeper that heading level 5.
