Network Introduction (1/3)

• Multiple instances of IoT Gateway can co-exist

• A single instance manages a specific network: 1 IoT Gateway = 1 network

• A Gateway plugin targets a specific network technology: 1 IoT Gateway plugin =

1 network type

Network Introduction (2/3)

• A network comprises a set of nodes logically connected to each other

• It may be described in terms of

• Topology
• Communication with the platform core
• Status (online/offline) identified by a network identifier, which is unique

• The network topology describes the logical relationships among

different nodes
• Typically, it mirrors the protocol-dependent connections/links which support inter-node communication

Network Introduction (3/3)

• IoT Gateway can model any type of topology (star, bus, mesh)

• Nodes may belong to the following categories

• Coordinator: the network controller. It orchestrates the network and, in some cases, manages a direct interface to IoT
Gateway bridging the data incoming from the sensor
• Gateway (FFD – Full Functionality Device): a network node, usually mains-powered, which is able to route messages
from RFDs to other gateways or to the network coordinator
• RFD (Reduced Functionality Device): a network node with limited capabilities, usually battery-powered

• The network topology evolves dynamically as soon as new nodes join

the network

Tenant Introduction

• Multiple networks can be assigned to one single Tenant

Tenant
• Networks are protocol-specific and organized in one network per
Internet of Things Gateway, for example, MQTT.

Network Data Modeling
Up&Dw Configurations (1/2)

The Up&Dw Configurations can be used to configure

a specific deployment scenario. For example, if
components of the Internet of Things service(Internet of
Things Gateway, Internet of Things Core Service or
similar) run in different network areas with firewalls and
proxies or both.

• Login with <instance_owner> details

• Choose Networks  Networks

• Default networks should have been listed
already (for ex: REST, MQTT)

• Click on + of a particular network (for ex: REST)

• Choose Up&Dw Configurations tile

Up&Dw Configurations (2/2)

• Choose Execute to start downloading the current

configuration

• Modify the data model XML file to fit your needs.

• Choose Browse to select the modified data model file

you want to upload.

• Optional: Choose Reset to revoke the given value and

restart the operation.

• Choose Upload to start the upload process.

• Choose Yes to restart the Internet of Things

Gateway immediately using the modified configuration.
Otherwise choose No and the configuration uploaded
will only become effective the next time you restart
the Internet of Things Gateway.

options for changing the Public Address and Private
Address of the selected tenant and can also be used for
adding and removing ports

• Add Users tile: Use this view to add an existing user to

the tenant specified

• KPIs tile: This view is to display a dashboard of the
