This document is intended to define and illustrate the overall CPE communication logic with various Servers. Regardless of the platform, all communication is encapsulated into a single service, Comm Service. The purpose of this service is to establish a communication link with one or more servers to send up event messages, receive requests, and query for information.
- Support multiple and simultaneous "channels"
- Channels are enabled/disabled at runtime based on configuration
- Channels should support asynchronous or synchronous communication
- Each channel is responsible for its own:
- activation
- message queueing
- marshalling/unmarshalling of data
- configuration storage (if applicable)
