Abstract—With the rapid development of the Internet of
Things (IoT) technology, massive terminal devices access the
network. These devices often have limited computing power,
insufficient resource space, and poor security protection
capabilities, which are easily exploited by hackers and lead to
serious security incidents. IoT gateway is a network access
device, which can be designed with a relatively complete
security mechanism to effectively improve the security
protection level of the system. Based on the open source
OpenWrt system, this paper adopts the modular design
structure, realizes the identity authentication and encryption
communication between the sensing layer and the network
layer through China cryptographic algorithm, network
security protocol and Physical Unclonable Function (PUF),
designs the software and hardware and builds the test
environment. The results show that the gateway has strong
security and stability, which can resist DDOS attacks and
spoofing attacks, and has flexible network access modes and
deployments, meeting the requirements of data collection,
device management and multimedia converged communication
in the IoT environment.

At present, universities, research institutes and high-tech
enterprises have developed different types of IoT gateways
according to their own needs. Literature [3] proposes an IoT
gateway that implements protocol conversion and data
interaction between wireless sensor networks and mobile
communication networks. Literature [4]-[6] propose the
design of smart home gateway using ARM as the core. This
solution combines the server and the gateway with the
superior performance of ARM, and sets up a web server on
the gateway to provide an external network access interface,
but this solution does not consider the security issue during
the information transmission process. Literature [7]-[8]
design a variety of home gateway control methods, but lack
the corresponding guarantee mechanism for the
confidentiality, integrity and non-repudiation of data
transmission and storage, and lack user access control and
identity authentication.
Aiming at the environmental security requirements of
IoT, this paper designs the security system from different
dimensions of equipment security and communication
security. It design a security gateway in the field of IoT
adopting modular design structure such as MTK low-power
CPU, PUF circuit, special cryptographic chip and peripheral
interface circuit, which combines SM2-with-SM3 digital
certificate, China cryptographic algorithm and network
security protocol. In the network access mode, it has multiple
access modes such as Ethernet port, WiFi, 4G, which can be
used in smart home, environmental monitoring, logistics
tracking, smart agriculture, etc. More precisely, our
contributions in this paper are as follows.

I. I NTRODUCTION
The Internet of Things is an important part of the new
generation of information technology as well as the
extension and development of the Internet. The Internet of
Things is a strategic emerging industry. Internet vendors and
traditional home appliance manufacturers have been
deploying in the areas of industrial IoT, smart home, and
smart logistics. There are a large number of terminal nodes in
the Internet of Things, and the threats are particularly
prominent. Attacks against IoT devices and network
communications continue to emerge. Security issues have
become the biggest worry in the development of the Internet
of Things [1-2].
x We begin with a brief discussion of the characteristics
of physical non-clonable functions, such as
uniqueness and stability. We combine this feature
with lightweight identity authentication of the sensing
layer, and design a security mechanism for the
sensing layer of IoT.
The IoT gateway is a bridge connecting the sensor
network and the Internet. It has relatively rich storage and
computing resources, a relatively complete security
mechanism can be designed on it. At present, most
researches on IoT gateway technology are carried out from
heterogeneous network fusion and data analysis, and there is
insufficient attention to the security of gateways. In the
military-civilian integration of IoT and the Industrial IoT, the
neglect of security issues will increase the risk of information

x Subsequently, we protect the security of IoT transport
layer through IPSec VPN technology, and realize key
negotiation and identity authentication by using China
cryptographic algorithm and SM2-with-SM3 digital
certificate.

IoT security gateway. The novelty of the gateway lies
