    摘要: It is recognized herein that current approaches to traffic steering in M2M systems lack capabilities, particularly with respect to traversing value added services in an operator's network. As described herein, nodes or apparatuses at a machine-to-machine (M2M) service layer can leverage value added services that are deployed in an operator's network. The M2M service layer may add metadata to downlink traffic so that the metadata can be used to assist with steering and processing data in the operator's value added services (VASs) network. By of example, the M2M service layer can use a control plane interface to push polices into a network operator's VASs network, and to allow functions in the VASs network to extract information from the M2M service layer.

    摘要: An IoT E2E Service Layer Security Management system supports methods/procedures to allow an application to establish, use, and teardown an IoT SL communication session that has application specified E2E security preferences and that targets one or more SL addressable targets (e.g. an IoT application, device, or gateway SL addressable resource). E2E SL Session based methods/procedures achieve a required overall E2E security level, by allowing IoT SL instances to influence and coordinate hop security for a multi-hop communication path spanning across multiple intermediary nodes. Methods/procedures reduce overhead, simplify and obviate the need for E2E service level nodes (initiation/termination nodes) from having to perform security service negotiation, in order to establish secure hop-by-hop security associations aligned with an E2E security requirement.
