7. iBoot Cloud Service

iBoot Cloud Service (iBCS) allows customers with iBoot to access and control multiple iBoots in multiple
locations from a single portal with a single sign-on.

iBCS will not only make using iBoots easier, by consolidating all units into one sign-on and interface; it will
also enhance the number of situations where iBoot can be deployed.



Customers with Dynamic IP addressing will always be able to access their iBoot from any location.



Customers that do not allow in-bound connections can access their iBoots.



Service providers can manage multiple customer accounts with diverse security configurations

7.1.
