OCX Mobile Access Usage Flow

How OCX Mobile Access Connects to the OCX Network

OCX Mobile Access utilizes mobile lines to provide connectivity between the OCX network and your mobile devices.
After purchasing a SIM Pack and receiving SIMs via shipment or issuance, you can connect your environment to the OCX network through a mobile line using a Virtual Mobile Gateway.

Flow for Using OCX Mobile Access

To use OCX Mobile Access, please prepare the following necessary items:

  • Configuration of the OCX Mobile Access network
  • Purchase of a Data Pack (Usage-based billing applies if not purchased)
  • Acquisition and configuration of SIMs

Configuration of the OCX Mobile Access Network

The Virtual Mobile Gateway requires a connection to an OCX-Router(v1).
From the perspective of redundancy, the recommended configuration using OCX-Router(v1) is as shown in the Basic Configuration, though connectivity configurations other than the Virtual Mobile Gateway and OCX-Router(v1) are not limited to this.

  1. Create Virtual Mobile Gateway
  2. Create Address Pool
  3. Create OCX-Router(v1)
  4. Create OCX-Router(v1) Interface
  5. Configure OCX-Router(v1) BGP Parameters
  6. Create two Virtual Circuits (VC)
  7. Attach each Virtual Mobile Gateway instance to a VC
  8. Attach the Primary/Secondary OCX-Router(v1) Interfaces to a VC

For further details, please refer to the documentation for each resource.

Purchase of Data Pack

You can purchase a Data Pack as a method to use a fixed amount of data communication capacity at a flat rate when using OCX Mobile Access.
If you do not purchase a Data Pack, usage-based billing per 1MB will apply.

*Note for customers purchasing the Annual Contract (10TB) Data Pack:
Rights to use 10,000 SIM cards will be granted with the initial fee waived.
Please note that monthly fees for the SIMs will still apply.

Acquisition and Configuration of SIMs

Communication becomes possible by purchasing SIMs and linking them to a Virtual Mobile Gateway Address Pool.

  1. Purchase SIM Pack
  2. Ship SIM Pack or Issue SIM Pack
  3. Link SIMs to Address Pool

*Note for customers purchasing the Annual Contract (10TB) Data Pack:
Since SIM cards are included with the Data Pack, there is no need to purchase a new SIM Pack. Please proceed directly to the SIM Pack shipping procedure.
