/.data/nodes/{node-type}

The paths of all the data items with nodeType={node-type}

The node-types are at the moment: "protocol", "device" and "object".

Example: Lets say that the IP of the DINGO device is 192.168.1.100, then links to all objects on the DINGO device can be browsed by entering this address into a browser: http://192.168.1.100/bacnetws/.data/nodes/object

The "histories", "events" and "nodes" are provided as a convenience to the user so that commonly queriable items are gathered into one place and the user does not have to traverse multiple trees or make deep filtered queries looking for interesting things. Each of the links contain an absolute path to an item on the DINGO device. The links do not reference data items on other servers on the network.

Example: Lets say that the IP of the DINGO device is 192.168.1.100, then this data item can be browsed by entering this address into a browser: http://192.168.1.100/bacnetws/.data
