Features Details Feature Flag
Enhance message inspector for 3rd party sensors As an IT/Tenant admin, I want to see both Join Requests from sensors and Join Accepts from IAV to troubleshoot all sensors trying to connect to IAV. N
Arctic support in IAV (EFT release) As an IT/Tenant admin, want to use the LoRaWAN PIM as a gateway for LoRaWAN, with the IR1101 being managed externally by a Cisco management tool. Y
Cisco SSO Login Experience (New Feature) IoT Operations Dashboard is integrated with Cisco Customer Identity (CCI) for an improved and seamless login experience. Cisco Customer Identity (CCI) is an identity provider managed and used by Cisco. Most users are already familiar with CCI and using it for logging into Cisco.com. This integration of IoT OD with CCI provides enhanced secure authentication and enables users to navigate across multiple Cisco applications and websites with one set of login credentials ensuring seamless operation. Refer CCI Integration. N

Feature Flag (Y) — The feature is available to select EFT customers by request. Please contact your Cisco support representative for assistance.

Caveats/Known Issues

  1. From January 12, 2022, API Keys will no longer be available for North Bound APIs. Users should refer to the DevNet documentation for instructions on using login credentials to get the access token.

Limitations

  • To ensure NAT works smoothly, it's best to avoid using source ports below 1024 and the port 1900. If not, there's a risk that the IPSec tunnel between the IXM and the cloud environment may fail to connect due to blocked traffic.
  • If sensors are onboarded but haven't sent any data, their DevEUI won't appear in the MQTT integration's topic path.

Downlink support for cisco sensors As an IT/Tenant admin, the user can change the uplink frequency of a sensor so it can report data in increments other than default N
Bulk add of 3rd party sensors Users will be able to upload 3rd party sensors in bulk using CSV file and API. Y

Feature Flag (Y) — The feature is available to select EFT customers by request. Please contact your Cisco support representative for assistance.

Caveats/Known Issues

  • For North Bound APIs, API Keys are not supported from January 12, 2022 release. Users will need to use the login credentials to retrieve the access token as described in the DevNet documentation.

Limitations

  • Per NAT best practices, source ports of 1900 and source ports below 1024 should be avoided, else, there can be instances in which the IPSec tunnel between the IXM and the cloud environment will not establish due to blocked traffic.
  • For sensors that have been onboarded, but have not sent any uplinks and end up in unreachable state, DevEUI will not be present in the Topic path for MQTT integration.
