ETX-1p and SecFlow-1p Positioning
• ETX-1p is positioned as a cost optimized branch router with
automation and virtualization, enabling business customers’
transition to the cloud. ETX-1p enables service provides to
deliver advanced IP-VPN services, as well as value added virtual
services from their edge data centers to the customer branch.
Container support enables service providers further flexibility to
enhance functionality in the edge. SF-1p
• Being the “ruggedized brother” of ETX-1p, SecFlow-1p is
positioned as a cost optimized IOT GW with automation and
virtualization. Both run on vCPE-OS, can host containers, and
are based on same HW platform. However, SecFlow-1p also
provides low speed/serial user interfaces and IO contacts,
typically required for IIoT backhaul applications.

SF-1p LoRaWAN GW
• Semtech Packet forwarder
- The Semtech UDP Packet Forwarder is the original LoRaWAN packet
forwarder, connecting to servers through the Semtech UDP
protocol. It was built by Semtech, who still maintain it.
LNS 1
- Uplinks, statuses and downlinks are exchanged in a pseudo-JSON
format, through UDP, between the gateway and the network server.
- Easy to reproduce, for testing purposes or for bootstrapping.
LNS 2
• Chirpstack packet multiplexer
- The ChirpStack Packet Multiplexer utility forwards the Semtech
packet-forwarder UDP data to multiple endpoints. It makes it
possible to connect a single LoRa gateway to multiple networks. LNS 3
