CGE Development Life Cycle

• Build HW development board based on RF/PLC Ref Design

• Load CGE FW and use our diagnostics to validate operation

• Join CGR’s WPAN mesh and get IPv6 connectivity

• Perform CSMP validation tests

• Send us your CGE SNs (EUI64)

• We will send you certificates to embed in CGEs

• Verify that CGEs register with CGNMS (in CG-REDI)

• Assemble your Starter Kit with SPP discount

• Get global static IP for CGR (from 3G, Cable/DSL, or ISP)

• Contact us for CG-REDI access and CGR configuration

• Develop firmware application for CGE (PPP or IE model)

• Build Server application for endpoint mgmt

• Connect Server to CG-REDI and check Server application connection to CGE

Fog Computing


• Compute facility/capability at the edge of the work

• Extends the concept of Cloud Computing paradigm to the edge of the network

• Critical component to IOT Applications• Data filtering to reduce traffic• Consolidate/compress messages to

optimize for network• Ability to react right at the edge when

backhaul to Cloud is not available

Fog Computing


IOx is an end-to-end application enablement framework that aims to provide application hosting capabilities for different application types in a consistent and uniform manner on all Cisco network platforms. The term Application enablement covers all life cycle aspects of applications including development, distribution, deployment, hosting, monitoring and management.

What is IOx

Apps are the value addition on the IOx platform.Developers, Partners, ISV & MSP are producers who create the apps.this Customers and Users are the consumers of this apps.IOx framework facilitates this value creation by providing a set of services that make it easy for developers to build IoT apps and host them on IOx platform, app distribution and management tools for our customers to discover and deploy the apps to IOx framework.


The below picture summarizes how device resident IOx framework and services abstracts the complexities and differences of the underlying hardware

SensorsDeploy applications on IOx devices


Bear in mind fog computing happens on Cisco edge routers which typically has limited resource, thus while design the application, choose the proper language between c, python, or java. As an example:

IR829 CPU: Intel Atom C2308 (1M Cache, 1.25 GHz), Dual Core, X86 64bit. 1 Core for IOS , 0.5 Core for VDS, 0.5 Core for GOS Memory: 2GB DDR3 totally; 1GB for GOS (700M for applications) Storage: 8GB eMMC totally; 3GB for GOS (800MB for applications)

IOx Sandbox OVA Installation: 1vCPU, 2GB RAM, 25GB HD, and ESXi 5.0+ IOx Sandbox environment is meant to be a IOx node for developers to play with ioxclient, Fog Director and deploy their applications. There are several limitations such as physical interfaces and performance difference.

IOx Application Development ConsiderationsResource Constrain Consideration

http://developer.cisco.com/site/iox


When design your app, consider below and pick the “type” that fits:

VM packaged apps: These are applications packaged as virtual machines, that is, the virtual machine that contains OS (kernel + root file system), libraries, and application code packaged into one package.

Native/Container apps: These applications are designed to run natively on the Host OS and are OS dependent. These applications are isolated from each other using isolation capabilities provided by the Host OS (such as LXC in the case of Linux). The apps are composed of application codes, 3rd party dependent libraries, native binaries (and entire root file system, minus the kernel, in the case of LXC) packaged into one archive.

PaaS style apps: These applications are more portable and self contained, typically developed using dynamic languages such as Java, Ruby, Python etc, and are designed to run in specific PaaS frameworks, (OS independent)

IOx Application Development Considerations


Container and PaaS Style Applications GuidancePaaS Style Applications: • Self-contained apps, portable• Write-once, deploy across IoT platforms• Python, Java, etc

Container Style Applications: • Tied to Host OS architecture• Total isolation from other apps (via LXC )• Limited control on life-cycle activity management

Cisco provides the IOx SDK to package the PaaS and Container Style applications for further deployment.


Cisco provides the IOx SDK to package the applications and open source software for further deployment. ( IOx SDK HW/SW Specification: 1vCPU, 2GB RAM, 25GB HD, and Ubuntu 14.04.01). Use SDK to package the app and deploy using fog director will avoid potential issue of messing up the system configuration by “randomly” put files into different locations.

An IOx application package shall consist of: ONE package descriptor file named as "package.yaml" and should be present in the root of the package ONE tar.gz envelope containing application or service artifacts with the name "artifacts.tar.gz". These artifacts

may be binaries, application code, application libraries, virtual disks, rootfs etc., More details about this in the below sections.

zero or one application configuration file named as "package_config.ini". If present, should be in the root of the package.

zero or one application manifest named as "package.mf". If present, should be in the root of the package. zero of one certificate containing signing information named as "package.cert". If present, should be in the root

of the package.

IOx Application Installation Path: All the applications and cartridges will be installed in a separate partition (/dev/sdb) with the mapping director

name of “/software”. The installed applications and cartridges will not be impacted in cases of IOS or GOS image upgrade as long as you put them in the /software.
