2.2.1 Nokia M2M Gateway

The Nokia M2M Gateway provides wireless CORBA access and interoperability to the Internet. The Nokia M2M Gateway bridges the GSM network and Internet by wireless connection establishment and protocol translation between applications located on the Internet and in remote devices. The CORBA middleware is optimised for the wireless bearer, and the Nokia M2M Gateway translates the protocol into a standard CORBA Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP).

The following three editions of the Nokia M2M Gateway are available:

Nokia M2M Gateway Corporate Edition is targeted for companies choosing to own and manage the gateway along with the server application. This gives the company independence and control over the service quality. Access to SMS-C,USSD-C and GGSN can be rented from the network operator.

Nokia M2M Gateway Service Provider Edition is targeted for telecom operators and other Nokia M2M Gateway service providers (GSP). The distributed architecture enables the hosting and maintaining of applications for many customer companies. Separate Gateway Access Software is provided for client companies and the service-provider. Access control from terminals to the company intranet is handled by the Gateway Access Software so that the companies can freely manage the access rights.

Nokia M2M Gateway Trial Version is intended for trial purposes and for testing the applications in the development phase. The Nokia M2M Trial Version supports SMS and data calls over the GSM network through the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal attached to the host computer. This Trial Version
