View network settings

To display the settings for a SIM, on the SIM List page menu, select next to the chosen SIM.

Select the export to PDF (), export to CSV () or print () buttons to export or print the information displayed on the page.

The following table describes the fields displayed in the Network settings report.

Field
Description

ICCID

Integrated Circuit Card Identifier for SIM cards or profiles (when using an eUICC SIM). For more information, see About eUICC SIM profiles. Contains 14 and 20 numeric digits and starts with 89 or 99.

Status

The current SIM state: Available Active Suspended Terminated For more information, see Understanding the SIM lifecycle. If the SIM status is available, the Change State button is not displayed.

Change State

Select to display the SIM Change State dialog where you can change the state of the SIM from Active to Suspended or Terminated. If the SIM is suspended, you can update its status to either Terminate or Unsuspend. To activate a SIM: Activate SIMs To terminate a SIM: Terminate SIMs

Attribute

IMSI

International Mobile Subscriber Identity number. Identifies a cellular network subscriber. The network operator that provided the IMSI uses it to authenticate a SIM (and the IoT device containing the SIM) on the network. Contains between 15 and 16 numeric digits. If the SIM has multiple IMSIs, each is displayed as a new row (attribute) in this table.

MSISDN

The Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number (MSISDN) is a unique identifier for a mobile phone number in telecommunications. It includes the country code, mobile network code and subscriber number, allowing for routing of calls and messages to the correct device. The MSISDN contains between 8 and 18 numeric digits and can include the '+' country code identifier, for example: +441234567890. For SIMs with multiple IMSIs, one MSISDN is designated as the primary MSISDN. For IoT devices that support receiving instructions via SMS, you must use the primary MSISDN when sending MT SMS messages from your mobile phone or when using the SMS API.

IP Address

One or more IPv4 addresses associated with the IMSI. When using regionalised routing, this table displays multiple IP addresses for the same IMSI, where each IP address corresponds to either the: Home data centre – the data centre at which the operator's network terminates. Local data centre – a region-specific data centre based on proximity to devices on the operator's network. Internet traffic is normally egressed onto the internet from the data centre connected to the operator. This means that the source IP address may change if the device is routed from a different data centre. When Eseye use OTA messages to switch IMSIs or profiles, the IP address will change because the Eseye data centres that assign the IP addresses use different IP address ranges for each operator.
