1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 24791 defines interfaces for device management of RFID systems. Interfaces are defined that provide for discovery, configuration, initialization and monitoring of RFID systems within the Software System Infrastructure (SSI). This standard only deals with devices that provide RFID related services. It does not distinguish the form factor of such RFID devices. This part of ISO/IEC 24791 provides two distinct interface sets, one based on the EPCglobal Discovery, Configuration, and Initialization (DCI) standard and the IETF SNMP RFCs and the other based on the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) Device Profile for Web Services (DPWS) standard. The definition of the Device Profile for RFID will be referred to in this part as the RFID Device Management Profile, or RDMP. Each interface option set provides interface definitions that provide ISO/IEC 24791‑3ClientEndpoints and ServicesEndpoints with the mechanisms for:

• • discovery of the RFID devices and services on a local or remote subnet
• • a firmware upgrade service
• • a management service that implements configuration related functions
• • a monitoring service for reporting alerts, diagnostics, and performance information.

The two interface set definitions provided by this part of ISO/IEC 24791 allow for clients and servicesendpoints to implement and provide the services based on the specific characteristics of the RFID system to be implemented. Clause 2 defines the Conformance requirements for systems that implement components of one or both of the interface sets.
