• Stage 2: Managing IPv6 multicast group address on node.
Application server pushes node’s IPv6 multicast group addresses (maximum is 4) to nodes. At the same time, nodes can also
call SDK APIs (if_addmaddr, if_delmaddr, if_getmaddrs) to add/delete/get multicast group addresses.
• Stage 3: Optionally notifying node’s IPv6 multicast group address to application server.
After a node receives the multicast address from application server, it sends the confirmation to the application server.
• Stage 4: Subscribing all IPv6 multicast group addresses in a PAN on CGR.
Nodes send DAO message directly to CGR. The multicast group information with multicast group addressees and MPL domain
will be inserted into one DAO option. CGR will add the multicast group entry for WPAN interface, so that CGR can forward
multicast data message from application server to nodes.
• Stage 5: sending multicast message from application server to nodes.
This stage is the same as the stage 5 of process with FND management.
For more information about configuring group multicast, see Configuring Group Multicast, on page 32.
CoAP Simple Management Protocol (CSMP)
RMEs implement CSMP for remote configuration, monitoring, and event generation over the IPv6 network. CSMP service is exposed
over both the mesh and serial interfaces. RMEs use the Cisco IoT FND, which provides the necessary backend network configuration,
monitoring, event notification services and network firmware upgrade, as well as power outage and restoration notification and meter
registration. IoT FND also retrieves statistics on network traffic from the interface.
IoT FND accesses CSMP over the mesh to manage communication modules. The application module can use the information to
perform application-specific functions and support customer-specific diagnostic tools.
RMEs do not support the following:
• CLI commands—All configuration and management occur only through CSMP
• No user interface—All configuration and management occur only through CSMP
In operations, IoT FND is the preferred interface to manage the WPAN module configuration and Cisco Resilient Mesh
networks. Only trained and qualified engineers should use the Cisco IOS CLI to configure or monitor a WPAN module.
Note
Status Information
The following parameters are available from the RMEs through CSMP on IoT FND:
• Identification
• UTC time in seconds
• IEEE 802.15.4 link
• 6LoWPAN link
• Network interface (for both serial and mesh interface)
• RPL
• Cisco Resilient Mesh firmware
