Orange: an M2M integrator, solution and service provider
main bricks of an M2M solution
research & development France Telecom Group
offer a shared M2M infrastructure
at the scale of the home, the building and the city
technology, demand and regulation trends boost home, building, city markets
standardization and federation are keys to a bigger market
above all challenges – low power, reliability, security, scalability – simplicity

networked sensors
network scale is different up to several thousands of nodes, yielding path computation issues with current
protocols
technology and environment are (often) constrained low powered devices and outdoor installation raise new (security) issues
traffic patterns are very specific data are collected by sensors and forwarded to actuators and/or Internet
“gateways” (such as CPE), yielding N:1 group communication scheme
control traffic (e.g. commands) are also very unidirectional, yielding 1:N group communication schemes
P2P traffic patterns remain marginal
why IPv6 a federative layer
• cornerstone of the “Internet of Things”, covering both mobile and wireless environments
an (almost) unlimited addressing capacity
• M2M-inferred environments assume tens (e.g. home services) to thousands (e.g. urban services) of devices
advanced self-configuration capabilities
• Automatic numbering and connectivity with different levels of security
IP is ubiquitous and scalable
• IPv6 is lightweight
• IPv6-enabled sensor technology is already available
