We have deployments in Sydney DCs where both Optus and Vodafone just didn't work. +1 for Mikrotik. They can be a hassle to get working properly but once running they are reliable. D.

The call home idea is a good one Jared. One big advantage is the ability to be a bit carrier agnostic and use the provider with the best signal strength in the area. Mikrotik also do a bunch of gear with LTE support which seems to be pretty flexible. I would prefer the public address delivered direct to the endpoint though (less moving parts... got to hate VPN lockups). Far out Bevan $80k in OOB connections! We're a touch shy of that.. eh hem.. Had I known how popular a topic this was I would not have worried about creating noise on the list! For the many others interested; potential providers referred to me as a result of this request (listed FIFO) - 2SG (2sg.com.au) Exetel Field Solutions Group <- have not checked this out yet though. URL networks Virtutel ZettaNet (part of ZettaGrid) Connected Australia Tim Sandy provided a table from his research (thanks mate) MVNE Notes Vanilla Telecom No layer 2 - Static IP on Vodafone network iBoss Symbio No layer 2 - Resell Telstra data/minutes only Vertel No layer 2 2SG Layer 2/VPDN solution offered If I missed anyone, I am very sorry. Probably got as many as I can handle at this stage, thanks very much to all that responded the wealth of knowledge on this list is incredible.

They plug into OpenGear devices and connect back to lighthouse software by OpenGear, so rather than us accessing them, they create a connection and call home to the lighthouse server that's also not on our network via VPN, so it works on pretty much every carrier. Each OOB site costs around $3 a month and doesn't need a static IP. Highly recommend it, it has been solid for us!

Looking at Australia first, but potentially globally. Save almost $80k per month in OOB services globally if this stands up technically. Talking to same provider in Australia. Static IP etc. B ________________________________ From: AusNOG <ausnog-boun...@lists.ausnog.net<mailto:ausnog-boun...@lists.ausnog.net>> on behalf of David Hughes <da...@hughes.com.au<mailto:da...@hughes.com.au>> Sent: Wednesday, July 29, 2020 4:43 pm To: Benjamin Ricardo Cc: AusNOG Mailing List Subject: Re: [AusNOG] MBB Wholesale Service provider Hey I've moved an LTE service we use for OOB over to ZettaNet from the previous provider who shall not be named :) It was retail naturally but they may be able to offer you something compelling.

We've got a bunch we need to switch over ASAP as our previous wholesaler has decided that they're not doing this anymore.... cause they don't want to... *sigh* Replies off list please, Many thanks Ben _______________________________________________ AusNOG mailing list AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net<mailto:AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net> http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog
