Incorporating OMA LWM2M for Firmware Update

Abstract

— Internet of Things (IoT) makes the Internet available to billions of users. Managing large quantities of devices is very critical. Among many other protocols, the global standards adopted Lightweight Machine 2 Machine(LWM2M) defines many traditional system management functions, such as remote device functions, firmware and software updates, communication monitoring, and security. Accessible Mobile Alliance Light-weight specification (OMA LwM2M) has given greater interoperability of applications to the absence of effort faced by the heterogeneous design, fragmented evolution environment and the interface between established solutions. This paper explains the firmware update architecture of LWM2M artefacts using standard OMA Specification. This involves downloading firmware kit, upgrading settings, upgrading states, and taking action after firmware updates.
