Netmore Packet Forwarder
Netmore’s Packet forwarder provides secure, reliable end-to-end device communication with fully remote management and monitoring supported by the Network Server. Netmore currently offer two types of installs:
-
Developer
Firewall friendly and secure backhaul communication, this option is used by customers in the test phase or for a lab environment. The Netmore Packet Forwarder offers a more robust suite of management tools as well as reliable and secure data delivery communications.
-
RAN Provider
Appropriate for Radio Access Network (RAN) Providers deploying Gateways at scale, this option increases security over the standard Netmore Packet forwarder by restricting local user accounts and preventing remote access.
Note
Base Station registration and Software installation is only required for devices that are new to the Netmore Network. If Netmore provided the Gateway, no further action is necessary.
