At least in North America / United States, there exist Cellular MVNOs (particularly in the IoT / M2M veritical) that neither use mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) service provider names (SPNs) nor use unique home network identifiers (HNIs) (that is, mobile country code (MCC) + mobile network code (MNC) pairs). Instead, they simply use the HNI of the parent operator. In addition, those MVNOs typically have two or three APN schemes: 1. A "public" APN that is broadly used by one or more MVNOs for the parent operator that issues PUBLIC IP addresses and does NOT route through the MVNOs or parent operator data center infrastructure. 2. A "private" APN that may or may NOT be broadly used by one or more MVNOs for the parent operator that issues PRIVATE IP addresses and does route through the MVNOs or parent operator data center infrastructure. 3. A "private" APN that is used only by the MVNO that issues static or dynamic PRIVATE IP addresses, does route through the MVNO data center infrastructure and, from there, via a VPN to the customer services infrastructure. These are sufficiently MVNO-specific where they do not or should not play a role in a generic provisioning database. KORE Wireless is one such IoT / M2M MVNO that uses AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon as parent operators. This adds a MNVO-generic IoT / M2M APN of type (1) above that is used by KORE Wireless as well as by other MVNOs for the T-Mobile parent operator. --- data/provision.json | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+)
