The appliance interface apparatus includes a first network interface for establishing a first communication link with a smart appliance controller in a network. The appliance interface apparatus can establish a second communication link with a control circuit for controlling the traditional appliance. Upon receiving a command from the smart appliance controller, the appliance interface apparatus sends a signal via the second communication link to the control circuit to control an operation of the traditional appliance in accordance with the command.
