Uniform Resource Names for Device Identifiers
draft-ietf-core-dev-urn-11
Abstract
This document describes a new Uniform Resource Name (URN) namespace
for hardware device identifiers. A general representation of device
identity can be useful in many applications, such as in sensor data
streams and storage, or equipment inventories. A URN-based
representation can be passed along in applications that need the
information.
