Setting
Details
Cellular
Uses the cellular network to transmit GPS locations to a remote
server.
GPS
GPS data is obtained from the GPS module (on appropriate
model of ZyWAN). This data is sent automatically to a remote
network server and is available via Terminal Server connection
to the ZyWAN.
Networking
Networking configuration allows access to GPS Terminal Server
port.
Cellular setup
The cellular page will depend on the model of ZyWAN and the network provider. The
inbound TCP connection to obtain GPS data requires the cellular account to have a
static, public IP address.
