From a network profile, you can configure WWAN settings for your devices with WWAN capabilities. These settings will be deployed with the profile and applied on the device. The options include:
Connection Name |
A name for the connection. |
Connection Type |
There are two connection types available for your WWAN-enabled devices: APN (GPRS / EDGE / 3G). Provide a domain (Access Point Name) if you are using this type of connection. An example of an APN would be: wap.cingular Dial-Up. Type the number to be dialed by the modem. This does not correspond to the number of the device. |
Credentials |
Sets the Username, Password, and Domain credentials for the connection when they are necessary. |
Custom Properties |
This option allows you to add custom properties to the devices that receive this network profile. By clicking _ defined, you can add, edit, and delete properties and their values. |
Enable TCP/IP header compression |
Improves the performance of low-speed connections. |
Enable software compression |
Improves the performance of low-speed connections. |
Activate phone as needed |
Allows the Enabler to activate the device’s phone if a WWAN connection is necessary. |
Dial broadband connection as needed |
Allows the Enabler to attempt a WWAN connection if a LAN connection cannot be established. |
Public IP address for Avalanche Server |
Provides the IP address of the enterprise server that is accessible from a WWAN. This is necessary if the device tries to contact the server when connecting from outside of the server’s local network. |
