Authorizing base station flows to and from ThingPark core network
If using a SaaS platform, this topic describes the required flows to authorize in your base station deployment environment, such as proxies, firewalls... These flows allow base stations to exchange traffic with ThingPark core network, as well as external time-synchronization servers.
LRR flows when IPsec is used
