Detailed explanation-1: -Standards provide flexibility for manufacturers to create devices that comply with unique requirements. Explanation:Standards-based protocols enable products from different manufacturers to interoperate successfully. Standards-based protocols enable many manufacturers to implement that protocol.
Detailed explanation-2: -Standards also serve to rationalize and reduce production costs, and thus satisfy consumer demands for low-cost services while maintaining good quality. Standards define quality and minimum requirements and provide recognized solutions for the protection of consumers, health, safety and the environment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Proprietary protocols can help you avoid a scenario where software updates are required (which are expensive for embedded devices) because a vulnerability is found in a standard protocol in a different context. If standard protocols are implemented, then with each known issue, a software update will be required.
Detailed explanation-4: -What is an advantage to using a protocol that is defined by an open standard? A company can monopolize the market. The protocol can only be run on equipment from a specific vendor. An open standard protocol is not controlled or regulated by standards organizations. It encourages competition and promotes choices.
