Interaction With the RAK Ecosystem

WisDM

WisGateOS 2 is integrated with RAK’s device management - WisDM. This allows for the remote management of gateways and their firmware. It also helps scale projects without requiring additional human capital and provides useful monitoring and metrics collection.

Built-in Network Server

WisGateOS 2 incorporates and supports a Built-in LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS). This provides a fast and reliable solution for launching a LoRaWAN network without the need for a third-party LNS.

Customization Ready

Through the Extensions Marketplace, users can add features and tools to customize and meet the needs of any project. This collection of custom plugins and add-ons enrich the gateway’s functionality with options that are not provided out of the box.
