Today, home appliances like air-conditions, ovens, refrigerators, and washing machines, become more and more intelligent, enabling homeowners to monitor and manage them remotely. However, the plethora of different and usually proprietary interfaces provided by the manufacturers makes it difficult to build smart home and smart city applications that involve the concurrent remote management of multiple home appliances. In this work, we categorize the basic characteristics of the available intelligent home appliances and propose YANG models that describe these characteristics. NETCONF experimental demonstrations are carried out to display the control and management capabilities of the technologies applied.
