Management of Networks with Constrained Devices: Use Cases
Abstract
This document discusses use cases concerning the management of
networks in which constrained devices are involved. A problem
statement, deployment options, and the requirements on the networks
with constrained devices can be found in the companion document on
"Management of Networks with Constrained Devices: Problem Statement
and Requirements" (RFC 7547).

RFC 7548 Constrained Management: Use Cases May 2015
1. Introduction
Constrained devices (also known as sensors, smart objects, or smart
devices) with limited CPU, memory, and power resources can be
connected to a network. Such a network of constrained devices itself
