+

Can I purchase the software license of SocketXP IoT Management Platform to self-host it in a cloud vendor of my choice?

+

Yes. You can purchase the software license of SocketXP IoT Management Platform for self-hosting. Please write to us: support@socketxp.com

Why SocketXP solution is more secure than other vendors?

+

SocketXP uses SSL/TLS X.509 certificates and keys for encrypting data transmitted over the public internet from all endpoints to our cloud gateway. It is the same technology used by the banks and governments for exchanging confidential data over the internet.

SocketXP does NOT expose your IoT device ports (TCP ports) directly to the internet through our cloud gateway, unlike other IoT remote access solutions in the market. Basically, SocketXP solution does NOT perform 'port-forwarding', like other vendors do. We enforce Zero Trust Security on all our access endpoints.

SocketXP offers advanced security features such as short-lived authtokens that expire after a certain time period. These authtokens can be used only for a specific purpose such as device registration, device access, REST API access etc.

What is the maximum number of Rasperry Pis or IoT devices supported per account?

+

SocketXP Cloud Gateway is a massively scalable solution (>1M devices) that can dynamically scale based on demand. Each subscription plan comes with its own maximum limit.

Where is SocketXP Cloud Gateway deployed?

+

SocketXP Cloud Gateway runs in the US-Central (Iowa) Region and Europe (Frankfurt, Germany) Region. Depending on where you are located in the globe, your access speed may vary. European customers are recommended to use the Europe gateway.

Can you create a new SocketXP Cloud Gateway instance closer to my geographic location?

+

Yes. We can create a new instance of SocketXP Cloud Gateway in your geographic location for high-volume users. We can also install, support and manage dedicated on-prem or private cloud version of SocketXP IoT Cloud Gateway for your exclusive private use. Please write to us: support@socketxp.com

I'm unable to connect to my device from the SocketXP web portal. What should I do next?

+

If you are unable to connect to your device from the SocketXP web portal, it is either your device is powered down or it doesn't have a stable internet connection or a firewall setting is blocking SocketXP agent from connecting to our cloud gateway. Please check our troubleshooting guide for more tips on what you could next: https://docs.socketxp.com/guide/troubleshooting-guide.

I'm unable to connect my IoT device with the SocketXP cloud gateway. The SocketXP agent error log says "Invalid Device Key". What is the issue here?

+

The error message "Invalid device key" could mean two things:

1) You recently deleted the device from the web portal but the "device.key" file in the device at "/var/lib/socketxp" belongs to the previous registration. In that case, delete the stale "device.key" file and re-execute the SocketXP login command.

2) You are a customer in the EU region but trying to connect your device with the SocketXP cloud gateway in the US region using the "device.key" obtained from the SocketXP cloud gateway in the EU region. Use "--region=eu" in ALL the commands to resolve this issue.

I'm unable to SSH into my IoT device from the web portal. It says "Connection closed". What is the problem?

+

Most likely, the problem is, you have created more than one tunnel or service for the same endpoint: SSH port 22, in this case.

Visit the SocketXP web portal, go to the devices section, click the Device ID to show the device details, scroll down to the bottom of the page to view the "services" or "tunnels" listed for this device. If you see more than one entries for port 22 (say for example: tcp://localhost:22, tcp://127.0.0.1:22, tcp://192.168.10.1:22), delete them just keep one entry. You should have only one service listed for each port.

Also, check if the SocketXP agent is running on the device and the SSH server daemon status is active, up and running (Use the "sudo systemctl status sshd" linux command to check SSHd status).
