Standard for Local Area Network/Wide Area Network (LAN/WAN) Node Communication Protocol to Complement the Utility Industry End Device Data Tables

This standard extends the concepts of ANSI C12.18/MC12.18/IEEE 1701, ANSI C12.21/MC12.18/IEEE 1702, and ANSI C12.19/MC12.19/IEEE 1377. This standard defines transporting Table data over any reliable communications network. This standard defines a communication network as reliable if a sender receives either a positive acknowledgment or an error message for every message sent. This standard uses the terminology of ANSI C12.22 when referring to a C12.22 Device and a C12.22 Communications Module. This standard describes an optionally exposed point-to-point interface between a C12.22 Device and a C12.22 Communications Module designed to attach to any network. Furthermore, this standard defines a methodology to capture, translate, and transmit one-way messages.

IEEE Standard for Local Area Network/Wide Area Network (LAN/WAN) Node Communication Protocol to Complement the Utility Industry End Device Data Tables

A set of application layer messaging services are provided in this standard that are applicable for the enterprise and End Device ends of an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). The application services include those useful for managing the AMI network assets defined by this standard. These messages may be transported over a wide range of underlying network transports such as TCP/IP, UDP, IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.15.4 IEEE 802.16, PLC, and SMS over GSM, over a wide range of physical media. Additionally, interfaces are defined for a Communication Module and a Local Port (e.g., an IEEE 1701 optical port).The described protocol is tailored for, but not limited to, the transport of IEEE 1377 Table data.Also, a means by which information can be sent in a secure manner using AES-128 and the EAX' mode is provided in this standard. This standard was developed jointly with ANSI (published as ANSI C12.22) and Measurement Canada (published as MC12.22).
