A method in a network node of a communication network configured to manage command messages from at least one Machine Type Communication, MTC, device manager intended for an MTC device, comprises receiving command messages from the at least one MTC device manager, step (). One or more command messages are merged into an MTC device message that comprises at least one command message, step (). Originator information is associated with each command message in the MTC device message, step (). The MTC device message is sent to an MTC device. The network node may further perform the steps of receiving an MTC device message from an MTC device, the MTC device message comprising at least one response message, step (). The network node determines from receiver information contained in the MTC device message which one or more MTC device managers are to receive each of the at least one response message, step (), and sends the at least one response message to each of the determined MTC device managers, step ().

Method, network node and terminal device in a communication network

A relay module () for use in a lightweight machine to machine (LWM2M) communication network comprises a first interface module () for interfacing with one or more server devices, and a second interface module () for interfacing with a plurality of client devices. A processing unit () is adapted to establish at least one group object instance, wherein each group object instance is used to control communication between a server device and a group of client devices.
