Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Introduction
This International Standard provides the architecture for device control and management (DCM).
DCM can support the various control and management services, regardless of the network protocols or
interfaces. DCM is composed of two protocols: DCMP (Device Control and Management Protocol) and
RMDP (Reliable Message Delivery Protocol).
This International Standard consists of the following parts:
— Part 1: Architecture
— Part 2: Specification of Device Control and Management Protocol (DCMP)
— Part 3: Specification of Reliable Message Delivery Protocol (RMDP)
Part 1 of ISO/IEC 17811 describes the architecture of DCM, which includes definition, general concept,
requirements, design principles, service scenarios for device management control, and management.
Part 2 of ISO/IEC 17811 specifies the Device Control and Management Protocol (DCMP), which includes
the functional entities, protocol operations, message structure, and detailed parameter format
associated with DCMP.
Part 3 of ISO/IEC 17811 specifies the Reliable Message Delivery Protocol (RMDP), which includes the
interworking with DCMP, protocol operations, and message structure associated with RMDP.

5 Overview
DCM provides various functions for the device management. DCM supports the device and network
status information retrieval, device and network initialization, firmware and software update, file
transmission and so on. In an administrative domain, there may be a device management server that
collects, controls, and manages devices using DCMP. To exchange DCMP messages among the devices,
RMDP is needed. RMDP is a message exchange protocol among the devices regardless of the network
protocols or interfaces. The detailed protocol stack of DCM is illustrated in the Figure 1.
Figure 1 — Protocol Stack for the DCM
Basically, DCMP messages can be exchanged using the RMDP. RMDP has node information, which
maintains the mapping information between DCM device identifier and physical network identifier,
such as the IP address and port number in IP network. If there is a device management server (DMS) in
an administrative domain, the RMDP might be able to obtain the node information about all devices that

ISO/IEC 17811-1:2014(E)
are connected in the administrative domain from the DMS. Note : There are several ways to retrieve node
information. For example, the RMDP is able to request node information by using the RMDP messages
when there is no DMS or when DMS does not response. Therefore the node retrieval mechanisms depend
on implementation. When the RMDP retrieves the node information without DMS, the integrity of node
information may not be guaranteed
After RMDP retrieves the target node information, DCMP messages, such as ‘DEVICE_INFORMATION_
REQUEST’ or ‘DEVICE_CONTROL_REQUEST’, can be transferred to the target device using RMDP.
6 DCM Service Environments
6.1 Case 1: Local Network with Device Management Server
Figure 2 shows an example of DCM service environment where all devices and a management server
are connected in a local network with device management server (DMS). The DMS retrieves device
information in the administrative domain and manages devices with DCMP. In this environment the
information device, such as smart phone, is able to control the devices using the DCMP. When smart
phone join the administrative domain, RMDP on smart phone could find the DMS and receive the node
information about whole devices which are connected in that administrative domain from the DMS.
Then DCMP on the smart phone sends the device discovery request message to the other devices and
receives the response message by using the RMDP. After that, smart phone is able to see the all devices in
the network. If the target device is selected and control information is available by user, DCMP generates
and transmits the device control request messages to the target device by using the RMDP.
Figure 2 — DCM service environment case 1: Local network with device management server
6.2 Case 2: Local Network without Device Management Server
Figure 3 shows the example of DCM service environment where all devices are connected in the local
network without device management server. The information device, such as smart phone, can control
the DCM devices by using the DCM based application. When a node discovery request message is
broadcasted by RMDP on the smart phone, RMDPs on the other devices which receive the node discovery
request message would response with their node information. Then DCMP on the smart phone sends the
device discovery request message to the other devices and receives the response message by using the
RMDP. After that, smart phone is able to see the all devices in the network. If the target device is selected
and control information is entered by user, DCMP generates the device control request message and
sends that control message to the target device by using the RMDP.
