The Converged Network and Things
• Many things are currently connected
using a loose collection of
independent networks. HVAC
• Independent networks are harder
to incorporate into the IoT. Physical
Telephone
Security
• Systems that would benefit
from convergence: cars and Converged
residential and office buildings. Network
• A converged network is a Video Power
powerful network that includes
comprehensive security, analytics, Data
and management capabilities.

communication between machines without human
intervention.
• Example: M2M occurs in cars with temperature and oil
sensors communicating with an onboard computer.

The Six Pillars of the Cisco IoT System
• Cisco IoT System helps organizations and industries adopt IoT solutions.
• Provides an infrastructure designed to manage large scale systems with very
different endpoints and platforms, and the huge amount of data.
• Uses a set of new and existing products and technologies to help reduce the
complexity of digitization.
• Uses the six pillars described in the figure to identify foundational elements.

• Certified to meet harsh environmental standards.
• Support a variety of communication interfaces including Ethernet,
serial, cellular, WiMAX, radio frequency (RF) mesh, LoRaWAN and
other IoT protocols.

Device Management
• Network devices send and receive many different flows of traffic.
• These traffic flows can be grouped into three different categories:
• Data plane - Also called the forwarding plane, it is a logic abstraction of all
the activities done by the devices to receive data from other devices and
forward it to the next device on its way to the destination.
• Control plane - This is where the decision regarding which path the data
should take is made. The control plane of adjacent devices can exchange
information for finding the best strategy to forward the data. This is what
happens in the standard routing approach.
• Management plane - The traffic in this plane is meant to access the device
itself. This is where, in the case of a standard IT network, the network
administrator will connect to modify the configuration or to update the
software running on the device.
• The management of IoT nodes using the standard approach of remote
connections (Telnet, SSH or web) is not scalable because of the very
large number of IoT devices. To successfully manage these large
numbers of devices requires a more automated form of management.

Integrated Solutions

• The IoT creates new opportunities for the interaction and

relationship between a variety of connected devices.
• The IoT is about the integration of devices as a whole
system, a holistic approach.
• The integration of devices and systems creates new business
opportunities and customer experiences.

The Industrial Internet

• Integration of complex
machinery, sensors and software.
• Example: driverless car uses data
from different systems to be
driven safely.
• Most common application is
predictive maintenance.
• Sensors in trains, planes, and
large equipment keep track of
hours of operation, machine
output, environmental factors
and determine when it needs
maintenance.

• Increasingly aging population.
• High-demand services.
• Shortages in key medical
specialties.
• Rising healthcare costs.
• IoT can help healthcare
providers reduce costs, improve
productivity, and deliver better
care to people everywhere, in
rural communities as well as in
urban centers.

Smart Cities (Cont.)

• Customer segments of a city include its

citizens, visitors, industry partners,
businesses, and municipal operations.
• Smart cities must address the needs of
these segments.
• Smart City Value Propositions:
• Lighting, Operations Centers, Parking,
Safety and Security, Traffic, Wi-Fi.

Smart Grids

• Challenges in Energy
• Rapid increase in consumption
is putting a strain on energy
providers in many countries.
• There is also an increasing
pressure to use low-carbon
energy sources instead of fossil
fuels.
• Different ways of thinking
about power and the way that
it is consumed are needed.
• Smart Grid explained:

IoT Solutions for the Power Grid
• Utilities need a more modern and agile electric grid.
• Smart grid provides more complex interconnections between the
producers, storage facilities, and consumers of electricity.
• Smart grid brings the notion of the consumers generating power
for themselves and to the grid.

Connected Manufacturing
• Challenges in Manufacturing
• Manufacturing must continually integrate new
innovative technology into the existing plant
infrastructure.
• Multiple siloed operational technology networks
become a problem.
• Diversity in networks increases cost and
complexity.
• That lack of integration leads to a broad range of
issues, including:
• Inefficient operations
• Slow response times both in the factory and in
the market
• Poor quality control
• High overhead
• Compromised security

right information.
• Connected sensors provide a unique level of
visibility into the factory operations and
supply chain flow.
• Collected data contributes to identifying
trends and relationships, revealing
opportunities for improvement.
• For example, car companies now use sensor

6.3 Summary
• The Cisco IoT System relies on six pillars: Network Connectivity, Fog
Computing, Security, Data Analysis, Management and Automation, and
Application Enablement Platform. Security is very important for IoT, because
it ensures that the data, control, and management planes are secure.
• The IoT spreads across both vertical and horizontal markets. Connected
Healthcare, Smart Cities, Smart Grids and Connected Manufacturing are a
few examples of real world IoT Systems.
• Connected Healthcare uses the IoT to help healthcare providers reduce
costs, improve productivity, and deliver better care to people in rural
communities as well as in urban centers.
• Smart Cities value propositions encompass lighting, operations centers,
parking, safety and security, traffic, and Wi-Fi.
• Smart grid brings the notion of the consumers generating power for
themselves and the grid. Connected
• Manufacturing relies on sensors to provide visibility into factory operations
and supply chain flow.
