CSA Preface
Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the SCC Mirror Committee (SMC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T).
For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as “CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 30100-1” throughout.
At the time of publication, ISO/IEC 30100-1:2016 is available from ISO and IEC in English only. CSA Group will publish the French version when it becomes available from ISO and IEC.
This Standard was reviewed by the CSA TCIT under the jurisdiction of the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Information and Communications Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. From time to time, ISO/IEC may publish addenda, corrigenda, etc. The TCIT will review these documents for approval and publication. For a listing, refer to the Current Standards Activities page at standardsactivities.csa.ca.
This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
Scope
This part of ISO/IEC 30100 specifies the minimum requirements of a home network resource management architecture to deliver applications in a safe and future-proof way without being prescriptive. The purpose of this standard is to collect all available home network information from different types of home network elements and protocols, and to provide the interrelationships among the elements of this information. This standard also describes user requirements and functional requirements for the management of home network entities as a resource.
This part of ISO/IEC 30100 specifies management requirements with respect to
- device management
- network topology
- auto-configuration
- device diagnosis and
- software management
- defines resources of a home network such as devices, networks and services
- specifies an information model of the relationship among home network resources and
- specifies management application procedures based on a home resource model.
This standard defines new terminology and specifies a general information model and relationships for resources (abstraction of device, network, service and location) in the home area network.
This standard specifies how a home resource management system defines, organises, diagnoses, manages and combines these resources. This standard does not specify what kind of resources will be defined.
The architecture of this standard is targeted for generic usage. Countermeasures are needed to protect the security and privacy of information from home devices. For example, there are laws and regulations for smart grids, health care, credit card solutions, etc. Corresponding security and privacy policies are needed for each application. A suitable data structure (XML schema) for security policies is needed in each usage category.
