      - Device Profiles
        Device profiles define the capabilities of LoRaWAN^® end devices and network joining parameters. The gateway provides eight types of profiles for most devices. If these profiles are not compatible with your devices, refer to this chapter to add and manage custom device profiles.
      - Multicast
        By creating a multicast group, you can send a single downlink payload to a group of devices sharing the same multicast address, session-keys and frame-counter. This chapter describes how to add and use the multicast groups.

Gateway Fleet

This chapter describes how to add agent gateways to this device.

Overview

Milesight LoRaWAN^® gateways can form a multi-gateway architecture using the Gateway Fleet function, enabling different gateways to provide failover for each other, extend signal coverage, and allow a single sensor to roam across multiple gateways. One gateway (referred to as the Controller Gateway) can act as the network server, while other gateways (referred to as Agent Gateways) function solely as packet forwarders and transmit all data packets to the Controller Gateway.

The EG71 can act as a Controller Gateway to receive data from other Milesight LoRaWAN^® gateways.

Prerequisites

Agent Gateway: Any other Milesight LoRaWAN^® gateways other than the EG71
The EG71 gateway has a public IP address or is reachable by other gateways.

Add Agent Gateway

On the left bar, select Data Service > Data Acquisition page.
On the top bar, select LoRaWAN tab, then select Gateway Fleet tab.
Click +Add to add an agent gateway.

Configure the agent gateway parameters, click Save.


Parameter	Description
Gateway ID	This can be found on the Packet Forward configuration page of agent gateway.
Name	Define a recognizable name for the agent gateway.
Location	Enter the gateway's latitude, longitude, and altitude. If the agent gateway supports GPS, the location information will be updated automatically here.

Select the packet forward type of the agent gateway to Remote Embedded NS and configure the server address as the EG71 gateway's address. For details, please refer to the corresponding gateway user guides.
Check connection status of the agent gateway.
Click to edit the gateway info or click to delete the gateway as required.
