Device Triggering

摘要

Service layer and application triggering may be used in a machine-to-machine environment. In an embodiment, an existing service layer procedure, such as registration, may allow a device or gateway service layer or application to indicate to a machine-to-machine server what port is listened to for triggers. In another embodiment, triggering may be used to provide bootstrapping instructions, including temporary bootstrapping identifiers, in trigger requests. In another embodiment, triggering may be used to assist with event notification. Service layer or application instructions may be embedded inside of trigger payloads. A trigger payload format is defined.

1. A method comprising:
providing, by a first machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity, a first message for registering with a second machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity,
the first message for registering with the second machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity comprising instructions for communicating with an application of the first machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity,the instructions for communicating with the application of the first machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity comprising an access network device identifier and a port number; and listening for a second message based on the provided instructions for communicating with the first machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity,
the second message indicative of being sent by the second machine-to-machine services capabilities layer entity.
