Gateway Management Module (GMM)

Group your gateways (Custom Fields)

Create Custom Fields to group gateways based on their purpose, the type of assets they support, location, or any other definition. Data from the gateways' connected assets can then be routed to specific destinations.

For example, create an "Engine Size" field with definitions for 1500cc, 1700cc, 2000cc, and 2500cc. Then select an "Engine Size" definition for each gateway installed in a truck. You can then create a Data Policy that sends data from 1500cc engines to a specific destination.

Tip: You can also create text entry fields so admins can manually enter information gateway information.
