A new IETF WG has been proposed in the Operations and Management Area. The IESG has not made any determination yet. The following draft charter was submitted, and is provided for informational purposes only. Please send your comments to the IESG mailing list ([email protected]) by 2021-02-01.
IOT Operations (iotops) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Current status: Proposed WG Chairs: Henk Birkholz <[email protected]> Alexey Melnikov <[email protected]> Assigned Area Director: Warren Kumari <[email protected]> Operations and Management Area Directors: Warren Kumari <[email protected]> Robert Wilton <[email protected]> Mailing list: Address: [email protected] To subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/iotops Archive: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/iotops/ Group page: https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/iotops/ Charter: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-iotops/ The IOTOPS Working Group is chartered for the discussion of operational issues related to Internet of Things (IoT) devices, in particular related to device onboarding and lifecycle management. IoT has a rather nebulous definition with different meanings for different people. For the purposes of this WG, its focus is on devices that - are networked, either to the Internet or within limited administrative domains - have a very limited end user interface or no end-user interface at all - are deployed in sufficiently large numbers that they cannot easily be managed or maintained manually The IETF works on a number of technologies related to IoT. This includes, but is not limited to work done in ACE, ANIMA, CBOR, CORE, DRIP, LAKE, LPWAN, LWIG, ROLL, SUIT, TEEP, 6LO, 6TISCH, and other working groups. IOTOPS is intended to be a discussion venue where people can discuss how various IoT-related technologies fit together. IOTOPS provides a venue for IoT experts and other interested parties to engage in discussions of operational IoT requirements, as well as proposals for new uses of IP technology related to IoT device and network operations. Revision, updates, and extensions to work from existing WGs will be done in those WGs. Where new protocols may be needed, IOTOPS will help identify candidate venues within IETF for their development. IOTOPS WG charter is restricted to: 1) Taking input and discussing issues related to the operational management of IoT devices. This includes (but is not limited to): - factory provisioning of devices - onboarding of devices - access control of devices to network resources - administrative control of devices - software/firmware upgrades - isolation/quarantine of devices - remediation of broken devices - end of life management of devices 2) Discussing issues related to IoT operational security. 3) Publishing operational practice. 4) Documenting requirements.
