APN
Access Point Name (APN) is the name of
a gateway between a mobile network and
host system. The cellular device
requesting a data connection must be
configured with an APN to communicate
with the carrier. Based on the APN used,
the mobile carrier assigns an IP address
to the device. Device IP addresss
assigned from carrier are categorized
into two types i.e. Dynamic and static IP
address. Type of IP address assigned to
the device depends on the APN
configured to the device. For static IP
address,a special SIM cards need to be
procured from the carrier with agreed
dataplan. Carriers support two types of
network toplogy - public and private
network. If the data collection system
and the cellular devices are to be
deployed in private network, the sevice
provider can implement a network which
connects to private network without
disturbing existing network topology. In
this deployement special SIM cards are
required which are configured with a
private APN provided by the carrier.
