Overview

This part of ISO/IEC 15045 specifies the minimum functional requirements of a residential gateway (RG) and the documentation to be provided. The standard specifies what a gateway should do in order to deliver services in a suitably safe, secure and future-proof way without being prescriptive. It also gives functional requirements.

Functional safety

This standard specifies certain safety features where commands sent from remote places to devices on the premises could cause danger to persons or property.

While this standard only specifies minimum requirements for the gateway architecture, gateway operation, and associated home systems in terms of safety, it provides an extensive checklist of functional situations that should be treated with the utmost caution and recommends appropriate measures.
