Connecting other devices than workstations to the Internet is becoming commonplace now. We give a taxonomy of such devices based on the integration of this connection with the functionality of the device. Then we propose a generic architecture for web-connected devices based on Internet standards. We present the Device Monitoring and Control Protocol (DMCP) that we derived from the prototypes we have build. As a running example to illustrate DMCP, we used a physiotherapy device.
