DEPLOYMENT STEPS

  • M2M deployments vary depending on device types and infrastructure present.  Typical deployments involve pushing the Telicost Agent over the air as a firmware upgrade the device. 
  • Once the Agent is installed on the device it will automatically connect in to the Telicost Server to start tracking the device usage
  • At this point the administrator has central control of the app on the device and can push plans and policies from the Server to the device
  • Sit back and let Telicost warn both the user and the administrator when a costly/critical event occurs such as plan overages, international roaming or usage anomalies
