information concerning the reachability status of MOC devices (e.g., online/offline, forwarding
information).
This capability corresponds functionally to the resource registry capability in [ITU-T Y.2240] when
adapted to the context of MOC.

Figure 11-3 – MOC capabilities in the MOC device domain

11.3.1 Communication aggregator
This capability, residing in MOC gateways, performs proxy and traffic aggregator functions.

Based on the requirements identified in clause 10.3, the communication aggregator capability
supports the relaying of traffic between MOC devices and NGNs, QoS mechanisms based on the
MOC application policy and the recording of charging information for MOC devices within the
MOC local network.

11.3.2 MOC application enabler
Based on the requirements identified in clause 10.1, this capability performs the exposure to MOC
applications of MOC capabilities residing in the MOC gateway and MOC devices.

11.3.3 MOC resource repository
Based on the requirements identified in clause 10.1, this capability, residing in MOC gateways,
provides functionalities for the storage of information related to the registered MOC devices. Being
stored in the MOC device repository, the MOC devices' data can be read by the authenticated and
authorized MOC applications.

11.3.4 Remote management

Based on the requirements identified in clause 10.5, this capability supports configuration
management, fault management, performance management, software and firmware upgrade of the
MOC gateway and MOC devices in the MOC local network.
NOTE – The functions above can also be realized by local management capabilities of the MOC devices and
gateway.

11.3.5 Security
Based on the requirements identified in clause 10.7, this capability performs registration and mutual
authentication with MOC applications.
