I. DIY Scenarios
& Solutions
01

How it all started…
Things (Devices) are getting smarter, from Class-1 to Consumer Electronics.
If a Thing is an Internet node, it’s subject of APIzation.
REST is the most successful Internet/Web API.

CoRE /CoAP
So we decided to start ourselves investing some 480€ to play with:
- 4 6LowPAN capable Motes (360€), 2 Raspberry PI (120€).
- Plus lots of hours of DIY “fun”!

Is CoAP Rocket Science? No, it’s just REST
Traditional REST WEB APIs relays on HTTP-TCP-IP
CoRE/CoAP = REST APIs over UDP-IP

CoAP: Designed for M2M

•

CoAP implements the REST architectural style:
 can be transparently mapped to HTTP

•

CoAP goes beyond HTTP providing:






M2M Community
Telefónica Digital

Very low over-head, avoids the need of IPv6 fragmentation
Built-in discovery of services and resources
Multicast support
Asynchronous messages exchanges
Native push notification

26
02

CoAP: The Web Architecture vs CoAP Architecture
The interaction model of CoAP is similar to the client/server model of
the Web. However, M2M interactions typically result in a CoAP
implementation acting in both client and server roles.

CoAP: Messaging Model

•
•
•
•

•
•

•

Short fixed-length binary header (4bytes)
Messages must fit in a single IP datagram
 Default IP: 1280bytes,
 6LoWPAN and IEEE802.15.4 127bytes

Messages can be confirmable (CON) or non confirmable (NON).
Naturally runs over UDP and supports :
 multicast IP destination addresses
 DTLS security

Piggy-backed REST request/response
 The response to a CON message is carried in the ACK

Request methods: GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE almost as in
HTTP.
Response methods: 2.xx (success), 4.xx (client error), 5.xx (server
error).

CoAP: Unreliable Transmission

•
•
•

Tipically, repeated readings from a sensor
If server lacks context to answer the request, sends Reset (RST)
Client can send the same mesage several times to ensure it reaches
the server

CoAP: Reliable Transmission

•

Normally bounded to non-reliable transport protocols, CoAP
implements a lightweight reliability mechanism based on:
 Stop&wait retransmisssion for CON
 Duplicated detection for CON and NON

CoAP: Proxying and Caching

•

CoAP supports caching





Cacheability determined by response code
An option number mask determines if it is a cache key.
Max-age option indicates cache lifetime
Validity checked using the Etag Option

•

Caching can be at endpoint or intermediary (proxy).

•

Proxy can be used to
 Improve performance (reduce network load)
 Access sleeping nodes
 Security reasons

•

Very easy mapping CoAP (Cross-protocol-proxy)HTTP

CoAP: Endpoints and URIs

•
•
•
•
•

A CoAP endpoint is a source or destination of a message.
URI representations for resources:
 coap-URI = "coap:" "//" <HOST> [ ":" <PORT> ] <PATH> [ "?" <QUERY> ]
 coaps-URI = "coaps:" "//" <HOST> [ ":" <PORT> ] <PATH> [ "?" <QUERY> ]

HOST can be an IP address or a registered name.
PORT where CoAP server is located (default CoAP port: 5683)
Example: coap://example.com:436/sensors/temp?min=10





M2M Community
Telefónica Digital

Host: example.com
Port: 436
Path: sensors/temp
Query: min=10

38
14

CoAP: Service and Resource Discovery
1. Discovering the servers:
 If unknown, the client has to learn HOST server

2. Discovering the resources
 The client queries the well known URI of the server on port 5683
 The server returns the list of resources in CoRE Link Format
GET /.well-known/core
<sensors/temp>;sz=512;title=Temperature Sensor;ct=50,
<actuators/jack>;sz=256;title=Hydraulic Jacks;ct=50

3. Both steps can be merged, querying the well known URI of “all
4.

CoAP nodes” using multicast address FF0X:0:0:0:0:0:0:C0A7
Resource Directories can be used
Related spec:
• RFC 5785 defines the a path prefix for "well-known locations“
• RFC 5988 defines the types of web links and a registry for them
• RFC 6690 defines a link format for user Web Link in CORE.

CoAP: RESTful Group Communication

•

CoAP supports making requests to IP multicast groups in NON

•
•

Leisure time
CoAP does not support yet the use of multicast with security

CoAP: Security

•
•

•
•
•
•

•

CoAP is secured using Datagram TLS (RFC6347) over UDP.
The endpoint initiates session to the server and, after the DTLS
handshake, it can send the 1st CoAP request.
All CoAP messages are sent as DTLS “application data”.
DTLS adds a limited per-datagram overhead of aprox 13 bytes.
Security info (e.g. keys, ACLs) must be provided during the
provisioning of the device.
The device can be in 1 of 4 security modes:
 NoSec: DTLS is disabled. Can be combined with alternative security
(e.g. IPSEC)
 PreSharedKey: DTLS enabled, preshared keys authenticate peers or
groups of peers.
 RawPublicKey: DTLS enabled, asymmetric keys without certificate.
 Certificate: DTLS enabled, asymmetric keys with x.509 certificate.

DTLS is not appropriate to group keying (multicast).

CoAP: Status, Advantages and Limitations

•

Proposed standard since July, 2013: draft-ietf-core-coap-18.

•

Advantages:





•

Designed for M2M, IoT
Easily mapped to HTTP, compatible with Proxy infrastructures.
Easy to map legacy protocols to CoAP
Extensions: push notifications, discovery and Multicast.

Limitations and work in progress:
 End to end secure connection required for CoAP/HTTP mapping at a
proxy using DTLS/TLS.
 Securing multicast communications.
 Semantics should be standardized.
 Caching of requests should also be allowed

  • 23. 20 Scenario2: Who’re already on board? “Talking at CES today, Cerf described his home's sensor network, which uses IPv6 radios and the Arch Rock PhyNet smart grid system to track information like light levels, temperature, and humidity. This is important for a wine cellar…” M2M Community Telefónica Digital 23

  • 26. 02 CoAP: Designed for M2M • CoAP implements the REST architectural style:  can be transparently mapped to HTTP • CoAP goes beyond HTTP providing:      M2M Community Telefónica Digital Very low over-head, avoids the need of IPv6 fragmentation Built-in discovery of services and resources Multicast support Asynchronous messages exchanges Native push notification 26
  • 27. 02 CoAP: The Web Architecture vs CoAP Architecture The interaction model of CoAP is similar to the client/server model of the Web. However, M2M interactions typically result in a CoAP implementation acting in both client and server roles. M2M Community Telefónica Digital 27
  • 28. 03 CoAP: Messaging Model • • • • • • • Short fixed-length binary header (4bytes) Messages must fit in a single IP datagram  Default IP: 1280bytes,  6LoWPAN and IEEE802.15.4 127bytes Messages can be confirmable (CON) or non confirmable (NON). Naturally runs over UDP and supports :  multicast IP destination addresses  DTLS security Piggy-backed REST request/response  The response to a CON message is carried in the ACK Request methods: GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE almost as in HTTP. Response methods: 2.xx (success), 4.xx (client error), 5.xx (server error). M2M Community Telefónica Digital 28

  • 36. 11 CoAP: Proxying and Caching • CoAP supports caching     Cacheability determined by response code An option number mask determines if it is a cache key. Max-age option indicates cache lifetime Validity checked using the Etag Option • Caching can be at endpoint or intermediary (proxy). • Proxy can be used to  Improve performance (reduce network load)  Access sleeping nodes  Security reasons • Very easy mapping CoAP (Cross-protocol-proxy)HTTP M2M Community Telefónica Digital 36

  • 38. 13 CoAP: Endpoints and URIs • • • • • A CoAP endpoint is a source or destination of a message. URI representations for resources:  coap-URI = "coap:" "//" <HOST> [ ":" <PORT> ] <PATH> [ "?" <QUERY> ]  coaps-URI = "coaps:" "//" <HOST> [ ":" <PORT> ] <PATH> [ "?" <QUERY> ] HOST can be an IP address or a registered name. PORT where CoAP server is located (default CoAP port: 5683) Example: coap://example.com:436/sensors/temp?min=10     M2M Community Telefónica Digital Host: example.com Port: 436 Path: sensors/temp Query: min=10 38
  • 39. 14 CoAP: Service and Resource Discovery 1. Discovering the servers:  If unknown, the client has to learn HOST server 2. Discovering the resources  The client queries the well known URI of the server on port 5683  The server returns the list of resources in CoRE Link Format GET /.well-known/core <sensors/temp>;sz=512;title=Temperature Sensor;ct=50, <actuators/jack>;sz=256;title=Hydraulic Jacks;ct=50 3. Both steps can be merged, querying the well known URI of “all 4. CoAP nodes” using multicast address FF0X:0:0:0:0:0:0:C0A7 Resource Directories can be used Related spec: • RFC 5785 defines the a path prefix for "well-known locations“ • RFC 5988 defines the types of web links and a registry for them • RFC 6690 defines a link format for user Web Link in CORE.

  • 40. 15 CoAP: RESTful Group Communication • CoAP supports making requests to IP multicast groups in NON • • Leisure time CoAP does not support yet the use of multicast with security M2M Community Telefónica Digital 40
  • 41. 16 CoAP: Security • • • • • • • CoAP is secured using Datagram TLS (RFC6347) over UDP. The endpoint initiates session to the server and, after the DTLS handshake, it can send the 1st CoAP request. All CoAP messages are sent as DTLS “application data”. DTLS adds a limited per-datagram overhead of aprox 13 bytes. Security info (e.g. keys, ACLs) must be provided during the provisioning of the device. The device can be in 1 of 4 security modes:  NoSec: DTLS is disabled. Can be combined with alternative security (e.g. IPSEC)  PreSharedKey: DTLS enabled, preshared keys authenticate peers or groups of peers.  RawPublicKey: DTLS enabled, asymmetric keys without certificate.  Certificate: DTLS enabled, asymmetric keys with x.509 certificate. DTLS is not appropriate to group keying (multicast). M2M Community Telefónica Digital 41
  • 42. 17 CoAP: Status, Advantages and Limitations • Proposed standard since July, 2013: draft-ietf-core-coap-18. • Advantages:     • Designed for M2M, IoT Easily mapped to HTTP, compatible with Proxy infrastructures. Easy to map legacy protocols to CoAP Extensions: push notifications, discovery and Multicast. Limitations and work in progress:  End to end secure connection required for CoAP/HTTP mapping at a proxy using DTLS/TLS.  Securing multicast communications.  Semantics should be standardized.  Caching of requests should also be allowed M2M Community Telefónica Digital 42
