The protocol is intended to improve interoperability among access control and security products. It supports Secure Channel (SC) for encrypted and authenticated communication between configured devices. OSDP describes the communication protocol for interfacing one or more Peripheral Devices (PD) to a Control Panel (CP) over a two-wire RS-485 multi-drop serial communication channel. Nevertheless, this protocol can be used to transfer secure data over any stream based physical channel. Have a look at the `protocol design documents`_ to get a better idea. This protocol is developed and maintained by `Security Industry Association`_ (SIA). .. _Security Industry Association: https://www.securityindustry.org/industry-standards/open-supervised-device-protocol/ .. _protocol design documents: protocol/index.html Salient Features of LibOSDP --------------------------- - Supports secure channel communication (AES-128) by default and provides a custom init-time flag to enforce a higher level of security not mandated by the specification - Can be used to setup a PD or CP mode of operation - Exposes a well defined contract though a single header file - Cross-platform; runs on bare-metal, Linux, Mac, and even Windows - No run-time memory allocation. All memory is allocated at init-time - No external dependencies (for ease of cross compilation) - Fully non-blocking, asynchronous design - Provides Rust, Python3, and C++ bindings for the C library for faster integration into various development phases. - Includes dozens of integration and unit tests which are incorporated in CI to ensure higher quality of releases. - Built-in, sophisticated, debugging infrastructure and tools ([see][14]). Usage Overview -------------- A device complying with OSDP can either be a CP or a PD. There can be only one CP on a bus which can talk to multiple PDs. LibOSDP allows your application to work either as a CP or a PD so depending on what you want to do you have to do some things differently. LibOSDP creates the following constructs which allow interactions between devices on the OSDP bus. These should not be confused with the protocol specified terminologies that may use the same names. They are: - Channel - Something that allows two OSDP devices to talk to each other - Commands - A call for action from a CP to one of its PDs - Events - A call for action from a PD to its CP You start by implementing the `osdp_channel` interface; this allows LibOSDP to communicate with other osdp devices on the bus. Then you describe the PD you are - talking to on the bus (in case of CP mode of operation) or, - going to behave as on the bus (in case of PD mode of operation) by using the `osdp_pd_info_t` struct. You can use `osdp_pd_info_t` struct (or an array of it in case of CP) to create a `osdp_t` context. Then your app needs to call the `osdp_cp/pd_refresh()` as frequently as possible. To meet the OSDP specified timing requirements, your app must call this method at least once every 50ms. After this point, the CP context can, - send commands to any one of the PDs (to control LEDs, Buzzers, etc.,) - register a callback for events that are sent from a PD and the PD context can, - notify it's controlling CP about an event (card read, key press, etc.,) - register a callback for commands issued by the CP Supported Commands and Replies ------------------------------ OSDP has certain command and reply IDs pre-registered. This implementation of the protocol support only the most common among them. You can see a `list of commands and replies`_ and their support status in LibOSDP here. .. _list of commands and replies: protocol/index.html .. toctree:: :caption: LibOSDP :hidden: :maxdepth: 1 libosdp/build-and-install libosdp/cross-compiling libosdp/secure-channel libosdp/debugging libosdp/compatibility libosdp/production-usage .. toctree:: :caption: Protocol :maxdepth: 2 :hidden: protocol/introduction protocol/commands-and-replies protocol/packet-structure protocol/pd-capabilities protocol/faq .. toctree:: :caption: API :maxdepth: 2 :hidden: api/control-panel api/peripheral-device api/pd-info api/miscellaneous api/command-structure api/event-structure api/channel .. toctree:: :caption: osdpctl :maxdepth: 2 :hidden: osdpctl/introduction osdpctl/configuration .. toctree:: :caption: Appendix :hidden: changelog license
