It depends on what protocol you’re using on the socket connection between the 
client (the home router) and the RS/AS. You’ll need :someplace: to put the 
access token. RFC6750 and RFC8705 are explicitly about HTTP so you can’t use 
them directly, but other work (like that done in the ACE group with OSCORE) map 
the OAuth concepts to different underlying protocols.
