3 Unleashing the potential of the Internet of Things
In line with [ITU-T Y.2240], the MOC capabilities also interact with NGN capabilities
[ITU-T Y.2201], IT capabilities or Internet capabilities.
NOTE 1 – The MOC capabilities in the NGN domain are positioned inside the NGN service stratum
[ITU-T Y.2012].
NOTE 2 – Other [ITU-T Y.2240] capabilities are not precluded to be part of, or adapted as, MOC
capabilities in the NGN domain as shown in Figure 11-2.

11.2.1 Accounting and charging
This capability supports accounting and charging modes and mechanisms for MOC applications,
including:
– support of revenue sharing among the various actors involved in the MOC ecosystem
– support of event-based online or offline charging in the MOC ecosystem.
For further details on this capability see [ITU-T Y.2240].
11.2.2 Access control
This capability performs authentication and authorization of MOC applications before allowing
them to access a specific set of capabilities. The access control capability provides translation of
application programming interfaces (APIs) and protocols across different service interfaces as well
as access from applications to functionalities exposed by MOC capabilities.
For further details on this capability see [ITU-T Y.2240].
11.2.3 Service dispatcher
This capability provides unified message routing and message exchange mechanisms among the
MOC capabilities in the NGN domain.
The service dispatcher also provides API and protocol transformation from MOC applications to
common message structure and business event handling and vice versa.
For further details on this capability see [ITU-T Y.2240].
