Internet-Draft This memo describes an API that allows applications to perform operations against a gateway serving one or more devices described by an SDF model. The document describes a RESTful application layer interface to perform operations on those devices, as well as a CBOR-based publish-subscribe interface for streaming data.

Introduction

Motivation Low‑power sensors, actuators, and other connected devices deployed for building management, healthcare, workplace, manufacturing, logistics, and hospitality use cases are often resource and battery constrained. Many lack native IP connectivity and instead attach via heterogeneous non‑IP operational networks. Common non‑IP protocols include BLE and Zigbee . When IP is available, constrained application protocols such as CoAP may be used. These devices still need to exchange data with IP‑based applications. Accordingly, applications on the IP network obtain telemetry from and issue operations to such devices through an application‑layer gateway. This gateway bridges the application network and one or more separate operational networks where devices are connected, allowing applications on the IP network to perform operations on devices connected to these other operational networks.

There have been efforts to define Gateway functions for devices that support a particular protocol, such as a BLE GATT REST API for BLE Gateways (), however they have been limited to a single protocol or a particular use case. In absence of an open standard describing how applications on an IP network communicate with devices on other operational networks, bespoke and vendor-specific implementations have proliferated. Each deployment then requires: (1) defining or adapting yet another API, and (2) deploying additional gateway functions, increasing operational and integration cost. This specification defines a single, extensible application layer interface for cross-network and cross-protocol device interaction through a network gateway. The intent is to support multiple network and network protocols (and versions) concurrently, allow incremental addition of new protocols via mapping, and reduce redundant infrastructure by enabling multiple applications to share one standardized gateway function. A standardized Application Layer Gateway interface has the following benefits: Eliminates repeated bespoke integration effort across deployments. Avoids deploying multiple overlapping gateway functions for different networks, protocols or use cases. Reduces time and operational cost to integrate new networks and devices.

Non-IP Gateway A Non-Internet-Connected Physical Components (NIPC) gateway is an application layer gateway (ALG) that implements APIs for applications to communicate with devices on different networks, leveraging different protocols. These NIPC APIs consist of reading or writing properties of devices, invoking actions on devices, as well as enabling or disabling events on devices. In order to perform NIPC operations on a device, 2 prerequisites must be fulfilled: The device is onboarded (its identity and any credentials/trust material are provisioned). Onboarding is out of scope of this document. It may be performed via SCIM with . An interaction model for the class of devices must be registered with the gateway. This allows the gateway to understand how to interact with the device in a protocol-neutral way. The interaction model is provided to the gateway by means of an SDF model, described in . Once these prerequisites are met, the gateway can resolve a referenced SDF affordance into the protocol-specific operations required for that device. A NIPC gateway provides the following functions: Authentication and authorization of application clients that will leverage the NIPC APIs. Maintain a repository of onboarded device objects. Accept and validate SDF interaction model registrations. Expose APIs for property, action, and event operations. Perform implicit connection management to devices where required; optionally support explicit connection management. Stream events (publish/subscribe) to authorized data applications. Proxy payloads between networks without interpreting or modifying application data. Operate one or more channels to supported wired or wireless networks. Optionally provide a bridge between devices on one or more device networks connected to the NIPC-Gateway. This may include translating between different protocols, if multiple protocols are supported on the device network(s). The gateway’s role is to proxy traffic between application and device networks; it is not intended to be middleware that inspects, decodes, or transforms device payloads.

illustrates the basic components: applications, the NIPC application‑layer gateway (ALG), an access point (AP), and a device (D). The applications, ALG, and AP reside on an IP network; the AP provides a wireless or wired interface to the device. Applications often operate in a different administrative domain than the ALG and AP, so the ALG will have to support authorization. The ALG bridges the IP application domain and the device network, be it an IP-based or non-IP device network. This enables applications to perform operations on devices attached to those device networks. Applications use a JSON-based RESTful NIPC APIs for property, action, and event operations, and a CBOR‑based publish/subscribe interface for event streaming.

Architecture

Overview A Non‑Internet‑Connected Physical Components (NIPC) gateway is an application‑layer gateway (ALG) that exposes APIs enabling applications to perform operations on devices attached to networks connected to the gateway. NIPC defines two API categories: Registrations: register SDF models for classes of devices and register data applications that receive streaming event data. Operations: perform protocol‑neutral device interactions (read/write properties, invoke actions, enable/disable events) across heterogeneous networks and protocols. To execute NIPC operations on a device, both prerequisites MUST be met: Device onboarding: The device identity and required trust material are provisioned (e.g., via SCIM with ). This yields the device ID referenced in NIPC API paths. Interaction model: An SDF model is registered, providing protocol‑neutral affordances and mappings to protocol‑specific operations.

| | +------------+ | NIPC Operation | | - Property | | - Action | +------------+ | - Event | | SDF +---------->| | | model | +----------------+ +------------+ ]]>

Once both prerequisites are met, authorized applications can perform NIPC operations on devices identified by their IDs. See for authorization details. NIPC operations act on SDF affordances—properties, actions, and events—defined in the registered SDF model. Certain NIPC operations may also be performed on groups of devices identified by a group ID.

Onboarding Onboarding is the process of declaring a device’s identity to the NIPC gateway and provisioning the trust material required to communicate with the device. The device object MUST include sufficient information to bootstrap trust and establish connectivity, as NIPC operations assume connectivity can be established without separate API calls. While onboarding can be performed in various ways, it is RECOMMENDED to use SCIM with the device schema , which defines the necessary attributes and extensions to support NIPC. As per , group objects may also be declared, and leveraged in NIPC operations.

Registrations NIPC registration APIs allow applications to declare information about a device class or authorize a data application. These APIs do not operate on specific devices or groups of devices. NIPC supports two registration types: SDF model registration: Registers an SDF interaction model for a class of devices. Data application authorization: Authorizes an application to receive streaming event data. Optionally, the SDF model reference and/or data‑app registration MAY be included in the device's SCIM object. See and for details.

SDF model registrations The SDF model for a class of devices determines how a gateway can interact with these devices in a protocol-neutral way. To enable this, the SDF model must contain protocol mappings, mapping protocol-neutral SDF affordances to protocol-specific operations as defined in . The SDF affordances supported by the device, as well as its protocol-mappings, are provided to the gateway by means of SDF model registration. SDF models are described in .

Data application registrations NIPC operations can enable or disable event reporting on a device. Events are reported through a publish-subscribe interface. Applications that are authorized to perform NIPC operations on devices can define which applications are permitted to receive streaming event data for that device. The data-app registrations API maps an event to an application that is authorized to receive that data. The registration also defines what protocol will be used to deliver the data (e.g., MQTT, webhook, websocket). This registration basically allows applications to determine which data-streams are consumed by which data-applications.

NIPC Operations

Overview NIPC APIs are exposed over HTTP . Requests and responses use JSON unless another media type is negotiated via Content-Type and Accept. A media type for an SDF affordance can also be stipulated in the SDF ContentFormat data quality, as described in . The default media type is “application/nipc+json” (see ). SDF model registrations use “application/sdf+json”. Property APIs MAY use other media types appropriate to the property payload. Failures use Problem Details with application/problem+json. NIPC operations are protocol-neutral operations on SDF affordances, more specifically properties, actions & events. NIPC operations can happen against affordances registered in an SDF model. Operations reference affordances by their SDF global name. If the underlying protocol requires a connection, the gateway establishes and tears down the connection implicitly unless an explicit connection is already in place. NIPC exposes three operation groups: Properties APIs: These APIs allow applications to perform operations on properties, such as to read or write values to them. Actions APIs: These APIs perform actions on devices, such as enabling or disabling a feature on a device. Events APIs: These APIs allow apps to enable or disable event reporting on devices. Events are reported over the events publish/subscribe interface.

Properties Property operations allow clients to read and write values for SDF properties. Requests and responses use application/nipc+json unless another media type is negotiated via Content‑Type and Accept. When using JSON, binary property values are base64‑encoded with padding per . Multiple properties MAY be read or written in a single request. When a single property is addressed via a query parameter, non‑JSON media types MAY be used for the payload. On success, the response returns either 200 with per‑property status (JSON) or 204 No Content for single, non‑JSON writes.

Actions Action operations invoke SDF actions on devices. A successful action request returns 202 Accepted with a Location header referencing the action instance. Clients poll the instance URI to obtain status (e.g., IN_PROGRESS, COMPLETED). Request bodies are optional and MAY carry action input in a media type appropriate to the underlying protocol (e.g., octet‑stream).

Events Event operations enable and disable device event reporting. Enabling an event returns 201 Created with a Location header referencing the event instance. Disabling an event uses the instance identifier and returns 204 No Content on success (for a single device) or a per‑device status list (for a group). Event payloads are delivered via the publish/subscribe interface encoded in CBOR .

Groups Where supported by the underlying protocol, operations MAY target a group of devices identified by a group ID. Responses for group operations return per‑device results; failures for individual devices are reported using Problem Details entries within the array.

Connection management for NIPC Operations For protocols that require connection setup, the gateway performs implicit connection management during an operation (establish on demand; tear down on completion). Gateways MAY support explicit connection management; when an explicit connection is active, operations reuse it and do not tear it down. Explicit connection management is described in .

Extensions NIPC supports API extensions for compound or specialized operations. Extensions can execute a set of NIPC operations in a single request or provide more efficient mechanisms for specific use cases (e.g., a bulk operation). Extensions MUST use the “/extensions” path element. To ensure interoperability, extensions MUST be registered with IANA as defined in .

Events publish subscribe interface Events are delivered via a publish/subscribe interface. NIPC events are encoded in CBOR () and can be transported over MQTT, Webhook or Websocket. CBOR is used for the publish/subscribe interface as Non-IP payloads are typically binary. CBOR encodes binary payloads efficiently, and is more compact than JSON, therefore reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted to the application. Event types include: Streaming data from devices: Streaming data is activated/deactivated with the NIPC events API Broadcasts from devices (e.g., advertisements in BLE) Connection events: Devices connecting & disconnecting

Paths

General The NIPC HTTP protocol is described in terms of a path relative to a Base URI. The Base URI MUST NOT contain a query string, as clients MAY append additional path information and query parameters as part of forming the request. The base URI is a URL that most often consists of the "https" protocol scheme, a domain name, and an initial path . That initial path for NIPC is recommended to be /nipc. For example:

Additionally a version number may be added, for example:

After the base or version number, the path must contain a collection identifier. The collection identifier can be one of the following: /registrations: for NIPC registration APIs /devices: for NIPC operations on devices /groups: for NIPC operations on groups of devices /extensions: for NIPC extension APIs The well-known URI /.well-known/nipc defined in can be used to discover the base path of the NIPC APIs and the supported versions and extensions. The response to a GET request on this URI MUST be a JSON document that contains the base path, and optionally the supported versions and
extension APIs. The paths MUST be a URI template as defined in . The following is an example of a template defining the NIPC base path as well as supported extensions on a server.

A formal CBOR definition of the well-known response is as follows:

NIPC Registrations Registrations leverage the base path + /registrations. NIPC supports SDF model registrations and data-app registrations. paths: /registrations/models /registrations/data-apps

NIPC Operations Every NIPC Operations API pertains to either a device or group of devices, identified by an ID, hence the ID must be reflected as the first parameter in the path. For example:

The second parameter in the path refers to the NIPC operation that the API will perform on the device. This can be: properties events actions extensions These are described in .

Schema The NIPC schema leans heavily on the SDF schema, as defined in . NIPC operations map directly to SDF affordances.

SDF model registrations To execute NIPC operations, an SDF interaction model for the device class MUST be registered. The model MUST include protocol mappings that relate protocol‑neutral SDF affordances to protocol‑specific operations. Registration is performed via POST /registrations/models with the SDF model in the request body. A registered model can be retrieved via GET /registrations/models using the model identifier (sdfName).

NIPC Operations NIPC operations require two parameters: Device ID: the UUID identifying the target device (or group). sdfName: the SDF global name (absolute URI with fragment) of the affordance (property, action, or event) on which the operation acts.

Device ID All NIPC operations are executed against a device or a group of devices. Devices or groups of devices are identified by a unique UUID, adhering to . Attribute Type Example id uuid 1d3b2c36-8a65-45a6-87c1-bcdbe0a32e30 ID is a UUID assigned during onboarding (e.g., by a SCIM server). The identifier is returned when the device object is created and is used by both the application and the NIPC gateway. The application must store this UUID in order to use it to identify the device on which it wants to perform NIPC operations. If the NIPC gateway is not co‑located with the SCIM server, it retrieves the device object from SCIM using this ID.

SDF Name Operations act on SDF affordances and reference them by SDF global name—an absolute URI with fragment that includes the namespace. The affordance referenced MAY be a property, action, or event; the reference is carried as a string. For example: NIPC Operation Example SDF Name used in the API Property https://example.com/heartrate#/
sdfObject/thermostat/sdfProperty/temperature Event https://example.com/heartrate#
/sdfObject/healthsensor/sdfEvent/fallDetected Action https://example.com/heartrate#/
sdfObject/thermostat/sdfAction/resetThermostat

Parameters To minimize deployment risk arising from inconsistent URI path normalization and handling of percent‑encoded reserved characters in path elements (notably “/” encoded as “%2F”) across common HTTP servers and intermediaries (e.g., Jetty, Tomcat, Apache httpd, NGINX), NIPC uses query parameters (except the primary {id} path segment) rather than additional path segments for values that can legitimately contain reserved characters (such as SDF global names). Although and require that reserved characters not be normalized or decoded in ways that alter semantics, misinterpretation of these rules has led to security vulnerabilities (path confusion, cache poisoning, authorization bypass) and to conservative default configurations that reject encoded slashes. In proxy deployments, relaxing these defaults often triggers security review friction. Representing such values in the query component avoids reliance on tolerant path normalization behavior, reduces ambiguity for intermediaries, and aligns with prevailing “safe” operational profiles; a malformed or unsupported parameter can be rejected with a 4xx status without exposing downstream services to traversal or normalization discrepancies.

Responses A NIPC Gateway must respond to a NIPC operation request synchronously, and provide the result of the completed operation in the HTTP response. Exceptions to this are the following: Extensions: Extension APIs (see ) execute compound operations and thus require the gateway to execute multiple NIPC operations. On acceptance, the gateway returns 202 Accepted. Clients poll the extension URI (GET) for execution status. If a callback URI was supplied in the request, the gateway MAY send the final result upon completion. Actions: Action requests return 202 Accepted with a Location header pointing to the action instance used for status tracking. A failure response must contain an HTTP status code of 4xx or 5xx, and use Problem Details with application/problem+json media type. All NIPC failure responses must include the following attributes: type: a URI identifying the error (see ) status: the 4xx or 5xx HTTP status code title: a brief, human‑readable summary detail: a human‑readable explanation specific to this occurrence Additional attributes MAY be included as permitted by .

Data application registrations APIs Data-app registration APIs allow applications to register a data application that will receive streaming data from the gateway. These APIs operate on a data app ID. This ID corresponds to the endpoint app ID of the telemetry endpoint app that is registered with the SCIM server as an authorized endpoint that can receive data for a device. The endpoint app is defined in . Apart from the endpoint app ID, the API also configures the protocol the data-app supports. These should be one of the following: mqttClient: The data-app is an MQTT client, which means that the NIPC gateway must act as an MQTT broker. mqttBroker: The data-app is an MQTT broker, which means that the NIPC gateway must act as an MQTT client. The MQTT broker configuration data, such as the URI, credentials and MQTT topic must also be provided in the registration API. webhook: The data-app supports a webhook the gateway can publish to. The registration API has to include the webhook URI & credentials. websocket: The data-app supports a websocket interface. The registration API has to include the websocket URI & credentials.

If a scheme is not supported, the NIPC gateway MUST return an error response with type "https://www.iana.org/assignments/nipc-problem-types#unsupported-uri-scheme". headers: An object that contains the headers to be sent with the webhook request. The headers can contain any authentication information required by the webhook server.

Query Parameters: dataAppId: the ID of the data application Response: If successful, the response will be identical to the request body for the register data application API .

NIPC Operation APIs The NIPC operation APIs perform protocol‑neutral interactions on SDF affordances, properties, events, and actions. This allows applications to read & update device properties, invoke actions, and consume events. NIPC defines three API collections aligned with the SDF Affordances defined in : Properties: read and write device properties. Events: enable and disable device event reporting. Actions: invoke device actions. To invoke NIPC operations APIs on a device, one or more SDF models MUST be registered for that device. The SDF model MAY have a top‑level sdfThing (with multiple sdfObjects) or a top‑level sdfObject. Operations depend on affordances (sdfProperty, sdfEvent, sdfAction) defined in the registered SDF model and on a device ID (see ). Affordances are referenced by their SDF global name (absolute URI with fragment) as described in . The NIPC Gateway must match the SDF global name against the registered SDF model to resolve the protocol mapping (protocolmap) the gateway will execute. When carried in a URI, the SDF global name MUST be percent‑encoded per .

NIPC Property APIs These APIs allow applications to read and update device properties. If the underlying protocol requires a connection, the gateway establishes it implicitly for the operation; when an explicit connection is already active, operations reuse it without modification. Requests and responses support content negotiation via Content-Type and Accept. When using "application/nipc+json", payloads must follow the examples above. Binary property values must be base64‑encoded with padding per in the "value" field. For other media types, payload semantics must follow the selected media type.

Update one or multiple values Method: PUT /devices/{id}/properties{?propertyName} Description: Write values to one or more properties on a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Query Parameters: propertyName: Identifies a single property to update. If present, the request body MAY use any media type appropriate to the property payload. -or- If absent, the request body MUST be application/nipc+json and contain an array of update items, each with a property and a value. Request Body: If the query parameter propertyName is provided, the request body MAY use any media type appropriate to the property payload. The value is encoded as per the content type of the payload. -or- If the query parameter propertyName is NOT provided, the request body must be an array of properties to update, each containing a property and a value. The value attribute contains the raw binary data, which must be encoded in base64 with padding as per .

Example body for updating multiple properties:

Response: If the Accept header is set to application/nipc+json, the response must be an array with a status field set to 200 for each property that was updated, or a problem type object for each property that failed to update. The "properties" array must be an array of properties that were updated, each containing a property and a value. -or- If the Accept header is set to any other media type and the propertyName query parameter is provided, the response must be 204 No Content with no body.

Example of a response:

Read one or multiple values Method: GET /devices/{id}/properties{?propertyName*} Description: Read values from one or more properties on a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Query Parameters: propertyName: The property to read. This can be a single property or multiple properties. If multiple properties are provided, the request body MUST contain an application/nipc+json payload with an array of properties to read. Response: If the Accept header is set to application/nipc+json, the response must be an array of properties, each containing a property and a value. The value must be the raw binary data read from the property, encoded in base64 with padding as per . The array must contain objects with 2 attributes: - property: The property that was read. - value: The bytes that were read in base64 encoding -or- If the Accept header is set to any other media type and a single propertyName query parameter is provided, the request body MAY use any media type appropriate to the property payload. The value is encoded as per the content type of the payload.

Example of a response:

NIPC Event APIs Event APIs enable or disable reporting of device events. For certain protocols, a connection may be required. If the underlying protocol requires a connection, the gateway establishes it implicitly for the operation. If an explicitly created connection is already active, it is reused without modification. Events are referenced by the SDF global name of an sdfEvent. The {id} path segment identifies a device or a group of devices. A group event MAY be enabled only if the underlying protocol supports group activation (e.g., BLE advertisement or connection status events). If the data application registered for this event is an MQTT broker or client, the event SDF global name may be used to construct the MQTT topic for the event. The topic is constructed using the data application ID, the default namespace for the event, and the event itself. For example, if the data application ID is "0927ce7c-b258-4bfa-a345-bcc9f74385b4" and the event is "https://example.com/thermometer#/sdfThing/thermometer/sdfEvent/isPresent", the topic will be:

// data-app/0927ce7c-b258-4bfa-a345-bcc9f74385b4/thermometer/sdfThing/\ thermometer/sdfEvent/isPresent ]]>

A data application may subscribe to this topic using the topic or it may use MQTT wildcards to subscribe to data-app/+/temperature/# to receive all events for the temperature namespace. If a customTopic was supplied in the data‑app registration (mqttBroker case), that topic MUST be used instead of the constructed default.

Enable event reporting Method: POST /devices/{id}/events{?eventName} Description: Enables an event on a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Query Parameters: eventName: the event to enable. The eventName must be a URL encoded string that is the absolute URI that is the global name of an sdfEvent. Response: Returns HTTP status code 201 Created with a Location header pointing to the created event instance. Example of a successful response:

The Location header must contain the URI for the created event instance, which may be used to check status or disable the event.

Disable event reporting Method: DELETE /devices/{id}/events{?instanceId} Description: Disables an event on a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device or group of devices Query Parameters: instanceId: the instance ID of the event to disable (obtained from the Location header when the event was enabled) Response: Returns HTTP status code 204 No Content on successful disable.

Get status of one or more events Method: GET /devices/{id}/events{?instanceId*} Description: Get the status of one or more events on a specific device Parameters: id: the ID of the device or group of devices Query Parameters: instanceId: a comma separated list of event instance IDs to filter by (optional) Response: The response must be an array of events, each containing an instanceID and an event. - instanceId: must be the unique instance ID for each enabled event. - event: must be the event URI for each enabled event.

Example of a response:

Enable event reporting on a group of devices Method: POST /groups/{id}/events Description: Enables an event on a group of devices Parameters: id: the ID of the group of devices Query Parameters: eventName: the event to enable. The eventName is a URL encoded string that is the absolute URI that is the global name of an sdfEvent. Response: The response must return HTTP status code 201 Created with a Location header pointing to the created event instance. The Location header must contain the URI for the created event instance, which can be used to check status or disable the event. Example of a successful response:

Disable event reporting on a group of devices Method: DELETE /groups/{id}/events{?instanceId} Description: Disables an event on a group of devices Parameters: id: the ID of the group of devices Query Parameters: instanceId: the instance ID of the event to disable (obtained from the Location header when the event was enabled) Response: MUST return 200 OK with an array of per‑device event status entries. For each device where the event was successfully disabled, the entry MUST include deviceId and event (SDF global name). For each device where disabling failed, the entry MUST be a Problem Details error object for that device.

Example of a response:

Get event status on a group of devices Method: GET /groups/{id}/events{?instanceId} Description: Get the status of one or more events for a group of devices Parameters: id: the ID of the group of devices Query Parameters: instanceId: the instance ID of the event to disable (obtained from the Location header when the event was enabled). Response: MUST return 200 OK with an array of per‑device event status entries. For each device where the event was successfully enabled, the entry MUST include deviceId and event (SDF global name). For each device where enabling failed, the entry MUST be a Problem Details error object for that device.

Example of a response:

NIPC Action APIs NIPC Action APIs invoke device actions. If the underlying protocol requires a connection, the gateway establishes it implicitly for the operation. If an explicitly established connection is already active, the operation MUST reuse it without modification.

Perform an action Method: POST /devices/{id}/actions{?actionName} Description: Perform an action on a specific device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Query Parameters: actionName: the action to perform Request Body: The request body is optional and may contain a value. The media type of the value can be defined by the underlying protocol, for example it could be octet-stream for binary data. Response: Actions are performed asynchronously. A successful request returns HTTP status code 202 Accepted with a Location header pointing to the action instance for status checking. The Location header contains the URI for the action instance, which can be used to check the action status. Example of a successful response:

Check action status Method: GET /devices/{id}/actions{?instanceId} Description: Check the status of an action on a specific device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Query Parameters: instanceId: the instance ID of the action (obtained from the Location header) Response: MUST return 200 OK with an action status, which may be "in progress" or "completed".

Example of a response:

NIPC explicit connections management APIs Many protocols do not require connection management, so for these protocols, these APIs will not apply. NIPC Gateways perform implicit connection management for protocols that require connection management (such as BLE), so in principle the user of the NIPC API does not have to perform connection management. In some cases however, a user might want to keep a connection open, perform an action, evaluate the result and perform a second action based on that result. In this case it is useful to perform explicit connection management so the connection remains established to execute subsequent actions. These APIs allow applications to explicitly manage device connections. The examples in this section will be based on BLE, which requires connection management.

Connect to a device Method: POST /devices/{id}/connections Description: Connect to a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Request Body: Connection retry parameters A protocol map object. In the case of BLE, if no protocol map is included, service discovery is performed to discover all supported properties when connecting to a device. Optionally, service discovery may be limited to properties defined in the "ble" protocol extension. The services to be discovered can be added in an array. Property discovery can be buffered across connections, so the API also supports caching parameters. Example body of a connection without specific discovery of properties:

where- "retries" defines the number of retries in case the operation does not succeed "retryMultipleAPs" can be used in case there is an infrastructure with multiple access points or radios that can reach the device. If set to "true" a different access point may be used for retries. In case the application would like to discover specific properties of a device, a protocol mapping can be added that defines what properties should be discovered. Example body of a BLE connection with specific discovery of properties:

where in the BLE protocol object: "services" is an array of services defined by their serviceIDs. "cached" refers to whether the services need to be cached for subsequent connects, in order not to perform service discovery on each request. "cacheIdlePurge" defines how long (in seconds) the cache should be maintained before purging. some devices support notifications on changes in services, "autoUpdate" allows the network to update services based on notification (on by default) "bonding" allows you to override the bonding method configured when onboarding the device Response: Success responses include a protocol mapping with an array of discovered properties, as defined in the specific protocol. For example, for BLE, this is an array of supported services, which in turn contains an array of characteristics, which in turn contains an array of descriptors, as shown in .

characteristics - characteristicID - flags | |> Descriptors - descriptorID ]]>

Example of a response:

where- "id" is the ID of the device "sdfProtocolMap" contains an Array of BLE services as shown in A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to definition of failed response.

Update a connection Method: PUT /devices/{id}/connections Description: Update cached ServiceMap for a device. Full service discovery will be performed, unless specific services are described in the API body. Parameters: id: the ID of the device Request Body: A protocol map object. In the case of BLE, if no protocol map is included, service discovery is performed to discover all supported properties when connecting to a device. Optionally, service discovery may be limited to properties defined in the "ble" protocol extension. The services to be discovered can be added in an array. Property discovery can be buffered across connections, so the API also supports caching parameters. Example body of an update connection:

where in the BLE protocol object: "services" is an array of services defined by their serviceIDs "cached" refers to whether the services need to be cached for subsequent connects, in order not to perform service discovery on each request "cacheIdlePurge" defines how long the cache should be maintained before purging some devices support notifications on changes in services, "autoUpdate" allows the network to update services based on notification (on by default) Response: Success responses include a protocol mapping with an array of discovered properties, as defined in the specific protocol. For example, for BLE, this is an array of supported services, which in turn contains an array of characteristics, which in turn contains an array of descriptors, as shown in . Example of a response:

where- "id" is the ID of the device "sdfProtocolMap" contains an Array of BLE services as shown in A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to definition of failed response.

Disconnect from a device Method: DELETE /devices/{id}/connections Description: Disconnect from a device Parameters: id: the ID of the device Response: Returns HTTP status code 200 OK with device ID on successful disconnect. Example of a response:

where "id" is the ID of the device. A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to definition of failed response.

Get connection status Method: GET /devices/{id}/connections Description: Get connection status for a device. Success when device(s) is/are connected, includes service map for the device if available. Failure when a device is not connected. Parameters: id: the ID of the device Response: Example of a response:

where- "id" is the ID of the device "sdfProtocolMap" contains an Array of BLE services as shown in A failure will generate a standard failed response. Please refer to definition of failed response.

NIPC Extensibility NIPC is designed to be extensible in two complementary ways: Protocol mappings: NIPC relies on SDF protocol mappings to relate protocol‑neutral affordances to protocol‑specific operations. Adding a new mapping enables support for additional device protocols (or versions) without the need to change the NIPC API itself. This allows deployments to evolve as device ecosystems change, while preserving application portability and gateway interoperability. Protocol mapping is an extension to SDF and described in . API extensions: Extensions compose multiple NIPC operations into a single request or introduce specialized flows optimized for common scenarios (e.g., bulk property updates, conditional reads, firmware operations). Extensions MUST use the “/extensions” path element and SHOULD focus on efficiency, latency reduction, and operational simplicity (fewer round trips, reduced state management). To ensure interoperability and consistent security review, extensions MUST be registered with IANA as defined in .

Protocol mappings NIPC relies on SDF protocol mappings to relate protocol‑neutral affordances to protocol‑specific operations. In BLE and Zigbee are used as examples, however the mapping mechanism is extensible; so support for additional protocols (or versions) can be added without changing the NIPC schema or API.

API extensions The extension APIs allow for extensibility of the APIs. Extension APIs may leverage the basic NIPC defined APIs and combine them in compound statements in order to streamline application operation against devices, make operations more expedient and convenient in one API call. An example of this is the bulk API extension. They may also introduce new functionality that is specific to a use case or protocol, such as the BLE transmit API. Extensions must be defined under the /extensions path element. The extension name is defined as a path parameter after the /extensions path element. Extensions may define their own request and response payloads, as well as their own query parameters. Extensions must be IANA registered as defined in . Extensions MAY implement long‑running operations (e.g., firmware updates, bulk actions). For such operations, the server SHOULD respond with 202 Accepted and a Location header referencing a status URI. Clients MAY poll the status URI (GET) to obtain progress. While the operation is in progress, the status endpoint SHOULD return 200 OK with status information; upon completion, the server MAY redirect with 303 See Other to the final result resource, or return 200 OK with the completed result from the status endpoint. This pattern minimizes client state, supports retry, and provides a uniform mechanism for tracking asynchronous execution. In the appendix , we have defined a few example extensions.

NIPC Error Handling Error types in NIPC APIs must use URI-based error type identifiers as defined in . The error types can be generic or specific to the API category. The error types are organized into the following categories: Generic: Broadly applicable errors, including authorization, invalid identifiers, and generic failures. Property APIs: Errors related to property APIs (read/write). Event APIs: Errors related to event APIs (enable/disable). Protocol specific: Errors related to protocol-specific operations. Extension APIs: Errors related to extension APIs. NIPC error types are defined in the table below: Error Type Description Category invalid-id Invalid device ID or gateway doesn't recognize the ID Generic invalid-sdf-url Invalid SDF URL or SDF affordance not found Generic extension-operation-not-executed Operation was not executed since the previous operation failed Generic sdf-model-already-registered SDF model already registered Generic sdf-model-in-use SDF model in use Generic unsupported-uri-scheme Unsupported URI scheme Generic property-not-readable Property not readable Property APIs property-not-writable Property not writable Property APIs event-already-enabled Event already enabled Event APIs event-not-enabled Event not enabled Event APIs event-not-registered Event not registered for any data application Event APIs protocolmap-ble-already-connected Device already connected Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-no-connection No connection found for device Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-connection-timeout BLE connection timeout Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-bonding-failed BLE bonding failed Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-connection-failed BLE connection failed Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-service-discovery-failed BLE service discovery failed Protocol specific protocolmap-ble-invalid-service-or-characteristic Invalid BLE service or characteristic ID Protocol specific protocolmap-zigbee-connection-timeout Zigbee connection timeout Protocol specific protocolmap-zigbee-invalid-endpoint-or-cluster Invalid Zigbee endpoint or cluster ID Protocol specific extension-transmit-invalid-data Invalid transmit data Transmit APIs extension-firmware-rollback Firmware rollback Extension APIs extension-firmware-update-failed Firmware update failed Extension APIs The appropriate HTTP status code is returned in the response.

Publish/Subscribe Interface Events are delivered via a publish/subscribe interface. Event types include: (1) streaming data (enabled/disabled via the NIPC Events API), (2) broadcasts (e.g., advertisements), and (3) connection status (device link up/down). Event payloads are encoded in CBOR and MAY be transported over MQTT, webhook, or websocket. CBOR is used because non‑IP device payloads are typically binary; it encodes such data efficiently and is more compact than JSON, reducing bandwidth.

CDDL Definition The event streaming format is defined here in CDDL . A DataSubscription is a CBOR map containing the raw payload (bytes) and a timestamp (epoch seconds). It MAY include deviceID (the SCIM device identifier) when the payload is associated with a known onboarded device. Optional members (e.g., apMacAddress, rssi) MAY be present but can reveal deployment topology and SHOULD be omitted unless required. A choice group within DataSubscription indicates the event type (e.g., advertisement, subscription notification, connection status). An event publication MAY carry one or more DataSubscription entries in an array. Such an array is represented as DataBatch.

CBOR Examples This section contains a few examples of the DataSubscription struct in CBOR diagnostic notation.

Examples This section contains a few examples on how applications can leverage NIPC operations to communicate with BLE and Zigbee devices.

Property Read/Write In this example, we will connect to a device and read and write from a property. The sequence of operations for this are: Onboard a device using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo) Register an SDF model for the device

Request Body: JSON object with the SDF model, from Read a property from the BLE device

Write to a property on the BLE device

Enabling an Event on a Device In this example, we will onboard a device, and setup an advertisement subscription event for that device. The sequence of operations for this are: Onboard a device and endpoint app using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo) Register an SDF model for the device

Request Body: JSON object with the SDF model, from Register the data app with the event

Enable the advertisement event

Check the status of the event

Enabling an Event on a Group of Devices In this example, we will enable an advertisement subscription event for a group of devices. The sequence of operations for this are: Onboard devices and endpoint app using the SCIM Interface (out of scope of this memo) Register an SDF model for the devices

Request Body: JSON object with the SDF model, from Register the data app with the event

Enable the advertisement event on a group of devices

Check the status of the event

Security Considerations

Payload Encryption Considerations Responses to NIPC operations requests may contain sensitive or confidential information. Therefore, application and device implementations should consider payload encryption. NIPC does not provide any payload encryption mechanism. If payload encryption is required, it MUST be provided by the underlying device protocol (e.g., BLE security modes) or by the transport-layer security mechanism (e.g., TLS).

TLS Support Considerations NIPC MUST run on top of a transport-layer security mechanism such as TLS. When leveraging TLS, the NIPC gateway MUST support TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 and MAY support additional transport-layer mechanisms. When using TLS, the client MUST perform a TLS/SSL server identity check, per . Implementation security considerations for TLS can be found in .

HTTP Considerations NIPC runs on top of HTTP and is thus subject to the security considerations of HTTP .

Authorization Considerations

API authorization Considerations To enable NIPC gateway functions, the network administrator MUST authorize applications (e.g., via exchange of tokens or public keys). Authorization MAY be role‑based. The following baseline roles are RECOMMENDED: Onboarding: permitted to create and manage device and endpoint‑app identities via SCIM (typically co‑located with the gateway). Control: permitted to invoke NIPC property, action, and event APIs. Data: permitted to receive streamed event data. Deployments MAY further refine authorization at per‑API or per‑affordance granularity.

Authorization Token/Bearer Token/Cookie Considerations When using authorization tokens such as those issued by OAuth 2.0 , implementers MUST take into account threats and countermeasures as documented in . Since the possession of a bearer token, Authorization token, or cookie MAY authorize the holder to perform NIPC Operations on devices, tokens and cookies MUST contain sufficient entropy to prevent random guessing attack; for example, see and . As with all NIPC communications, bearer tokens and HTTP cookies MUST be exchanged using transport-layer security mechanism such as TLS. Bearer tokens MUST have a limited lifetime that can be determined directly or indirectly (e.g., by checking with a validation service) by the application. By expiring tokens, applications are forced to obtain a new token (which usually involves re-authentication) for continued authorized access. For example, in OAuth 2.0, an application MAY use OAuth token refresh to obtain a new bearer token after authenticating to an authorization server. See . As with bearer tokens, an HTTP cookie SHOULD last no longer than the lifetime of a browser session. An expiry time should be set that limits session cookie lifetime as per . Implementations supporting OAuth bearer tokens need to factor in security considerations of this authorization method . Implementers also need to consider authentication choices coupled with OAuth bearer tokens. For example, when using OAuth bearer tokens with client authentication via client credentials , implementers need to consider the security considerations of client authentication via client credentials as described in Section 3.2 of .

Other Security Considerations Preventing automated attacks: It is recommended to limit the number of requests that any particular application MAY make in a period of time. Logging and monitoring: It is recommended to log and monitor API usage to detect potential abuse or attacks. Input validation: It is recommended to validate all inputs to prevent injection attacks. Error handling: It is recommended to handle errors gracefully without exposing sensitive information. Least privilege: It is recommended to follow the principle of least privilege when granting access to resources. Storage and handling of sensitive data: Credentials MUST NOT be stored in clear-text, but MUST be stored using an encrypted protection mechanism (e.g., hashing).

IANA Considerations This section provides guidance to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) regarding registration of values related to NIPC, in accordance with .
