Actually we need to be clear about that requirement. There are
at least three cases I can imagine:

1. I want to control my washing machine remotely (although I
won't be doing that until I have a very reliable dhobi-robot to
load and unload it).

2. The manufacturer wants to update my washing machine remotely.

3. A benevolent 3rd party wants to control it remotely.

I think you'll find each of these cases has different discovery,
naming and security requirements.
