pSHIELD<strong>System</strong> <strong>Architecture</strong> <strong>Design</strong>PU6.6.2 ExternalThe interfaces between the systems and the applications, along with those for (remote) administration of apSHIELD system are two cases of external interfaces:Remote commandsThe interface through which a node receives configuration commands, data and equipment status form anexternal operator.SNMP interfaceAn external maintenance system can perform node monitoring and control through an SNMP interface.User interfacesThe interfaces used in specific applications for the intercommunication between components or betweenthe user and the system. For example, Shepherd (provided by Telenor Objects) is an M2Mcommunication platform, on which pSHIELD nodes can be connected through APIs and transmit theirsensor information securely. More detailed information about application information is being developedand presented in the framework of WP6.6.6.3 NodeThe interfaces that the nodes of the systems are using and providing are mentioned below:I/O interfacesInterfaces used to connect to peripherals and pSHIELD functionalities. Depending on the node type andfunctionality they can be RS232, Serial, GPIO etc.Dedicated functions/modules interfacesInterfaces (usually in master-slave form) which transmit the output of a dedicated function:1. Health monitoring2. Security3. Application processor4. Power management5. Memory6. Reconfiguration controllerCommunication interfacesInterfaces used for the networking or radio function of the node (Ethernet, USB, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, TPM andInfiniband).PUD2.3.2Issue 5 Page 118 of 122
