M1  - Millions of existing smart devices are already deployed
in home and building automation covering domains of
lighting
M1  -  heating ventilation and air condition (HVAC)
M1  -  security

M1  -  and smart metering. From an Internet of Things point of
view
M1  -  these devices are legacy devices based on technologies like
BACnet
M1  -  ZigBee or KNX which mostly use non-IP communication
technologies and IP almost exclusively to tunnel their specific
network protocols. For native IoT devices recent research work
is focusing on IPv6 communication stacks using RESTful Web
services for direct device interaction. In order to use such a communication
stack in embedded devices
M1  -  protocols for Constrained
RESTful Environments (CoRE) have been standardized having
the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) as main message
exchange protocol. This paper presents an implementation and
demonstration of a transparent IPv6 multi-protocol gateway that
allows a seamless integration of existing Building Automation
Systems into the Internet of Things. The gateway provides a
CoRE conformant interface for each legacy device and hence
has the potential to populate the Internet of Things with millions
of real world devices at one go. A demonstration video of the
IPv6 multi-protocol gateway is provided at www.auto.tuwien.ac.
