Object Defined by LWM2M

Object Concept

An object is a collection of resources that are logically used for specific purposes. For example, firmware upgrade. The object includes all resources used for firmware upgrade, such as firmware packages, firmware URLs, upgrade execution, and upgrade results.

Before using the functions of an object, instantiate the object. An object can have multiple instances, which are numbered from 0 in ascending order.

LWM2M has defined fixed IDs for the standard objects defined by the OMA. For example, the ID of the firmware upgrade object is 5. The object includes eight types of resources, which are numbered from 0 to 7. The ID of the firmware package name is 6. Therefore, URI 5/0/6 represents the firmware package name of instance 0 of the firmware upgrade object.

Standard Object Defined by OMA

The OMA LWM2M specifications define the following seven standard objects.

Object	Object ID	description
LwM2M Security	0	Includes the URI and payload security mode of an LWM2M bootstrap server and information about partial algorithms or keys and short server IDs.
LwM2M Server	1	Includes the short ID of a server, registration life cycle, minimum or maximum period of observation, and binding models.
Access Control	2	Includes the access control permission of each object.
Device	3	Includes the device manufacturer, model, serial number, power, and memory.
Connectivity Monitoring	4	Includes the network standard, link quality, and IP address.
Firmware	5	Includes the firmware package and its URI, status, and upgrade results.
Location	6	Includes the latitude, longitude, altitude, and time stamp.
Connectivity Statistics	7	Includes the data volume sent and received during data collection and package size.
