About Fixed IP SIM Cards
M2M Data Connect Fixed IP SIM cards have two main functions. The first function is to allow incoming traffic to go through the M2M SIM to any device connected to a 3G, 4G LTE or 5G router. And the second function is to give proof of identity so that applications and resources can be accessed, even when protected behind a corporate firewall, providing a secure flexible management service.
How does Private Fixed IP VPN works?
Fixed Private IP allows customers to have a default APN that gives the device a fixed private IP address every time it opens a data session. There is a VPN between M2M Data Connect and the customer where the data would pass through.
The main advantage of this model is that it allows the customer to be able to communicate with the device giving you 2-way communication. The device needs to be configured with the default APN “fixedipaccess” and once this device is attached to a visiting network, the data session will pass over the IPX (IP Exchange) and reach M2M Data Connect Mobile Core. The PGW (packet gateway) will accept this data request and then do a radius authentication to the IoT Platform, where it is then assigned the same IP each time. This session will then pass through our 8905 switches and onto the firewall where all traffic will be passed over the VPN back to the customer. There are 2 x Firewalls on the M2M Data Connect side and if one should fail then the other firewall will take over.
