administrator can easily and remotely obtain the status and information via the purchased gateway. Moreover,

devices which are already well connected to.
The supported events are categorized into two groups: the
managing events
and

.
The
managing events
are the events that are used to manage the gateway or change the setting / status of the
specific functionality of the gateway. On receiving the managing event, the gateway will take action to change
the functionality, collect the required status for administration, and also change the status of a certain

The
notifying events
are the events that some related objects have been triggered and take corresponding
actions on the occurrence of the events. It could be an event generated from the connected sensor, or a
certain connected field bus device for alerting the administrator something happened with SMS message,

event profiles for taking instant reaction on a certain event or managing the devices for some advanced useful
purposes. For example, sending/receiving remote managing SMS for the gateway’s routine maintaining, the
