IEEE/ISO/IEC 18881-2016

Based on the IEEE 1888(TM) protocols, this standard describes network gateway central access control and management policy through the extension of existing interface protocols, message formats, and interactive processing in ubiquitous green community control networks (UGCCNets). This standard extends the definition of the original interface protocols and message formats and mainly specifies the network gateway signal flow for access control, registration management, state querying, event reporting, remote management, etc.

This standard aims to provide open and standardized network gateway management interface protocols for service providers, system integrators, equipment manufacturers, etc., through the extension of the original interface protocol in order to be able to remotely control and monitor the network gateway and other facilities in green communities, such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC); lighting systems; energy equipment; and so on.

Adoption Standard - Active. This standard describes network gateway access, control, and management; specifies control and management requirements; defines the system architecture, communication sequences, and enhanced functions for the protocols defined in IEEE 1888(TM), “Ubiquitous Green Community Control Network Protocol”; and extends the protocols and interfaces based on the requirements. This standard shall provide enhanced protocols, workflows, and message formats for the network gateway under control and management, such as registration, access, control, event handling, configuration, status querying, etc.
