The “Network Access Management” API enables developers to manage network operator-supplied devices and configurations. It focuses on two key functionalities:
Isolated Networks: Create, modify, or delete logically separated Local Area Networks (LANs) on API provider supplied devices with the following features:
Standing up temporary Wi-Fi networks with an expiration date.
Replicating network Wi-Fi configurations across multiple devices or locations.
Creating one or more dedicated Wi-Fi network.
Device Reboot Requests: Trigger immediate or scheduled reboots for API provider supplied network devices.
Use Cases
Property Management:
Automate Wi-Fi network setup for rental properties.
Standardize Wi-Fi network configurations across multiple locations.
IoT and Guest Networks:
Isolate IoT devices for enhanced security and privacy.
Provide temporary guest Wi-Fi networks without affecting primary networks.
Device Maintenance:
Schedule or trigger device reboots to resolve connectivity issues.
Centralize management of network devices across multiple sites.
Temporary Wi-Fi Networks:
Allows setting up temporary Wi-Fi networks with specific expiration dates.
Dedicated Wi-Fi Networks:
Supports the creation of dedicated Wi-Fi networks for specific purposes.
API availability: Information which APIs are available in which country and network, and how to get access can be found on the GSMA public launch status page.
