Assigning Gateways

The RUCKUS IoT Insights system detects IoT gateways that are connected to the IoT Controller, LoRa network server, or third-party gateways communicating with the IoT Insights platform. These gateways are provisioned into the system and must be assigned to a site, building, and location for correct management of devices and events. Complete the following steps to assign a gateway to a site.
  1. From the main menu, go to Configuration > Admin > Site Manager > Assign Gateways.
