• Access Control: Access Control implies a security service that prevents
unauthorized use of a Security Gateway, a network behind a gateway or
bandwidth on that network.
• Data Origin Authentication: Data Origin Authentication verifies the actual
sender, thus eliminating the possibility of forging the actual sender’s identifi-
cation by a third-party.
• Data Integrity: Data Integrity Authentication allows both ends of the communi-
cation channel to confirm that the original data sent has been received as
transmitted, without being tampered with in transit. This is achieved by using
authentication algorithms and their outputs.
The IPSec architecture model includes the Sierra Wireless AirLink gateway as a
remote gateway at one end communicating, through a VPN tunnel, with a VPN
gateway at the other end. The remote gateway is connected to a Remote network
and the VPN is connected to the Local network. The communication of data is
secure through the IPSec protocols.

GRE
GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) tunnel is used to carry non-IP packets
through an IP Network. Non -IP packets, that are send over the GRE tunnel, need
to be first encapsulated. Hence, ALEOS is used to configure and encapsulate
non-IP packets and transmit over IP through the GRE tunnel.
Applications
Events Reporting
Events Reporting is Sierra Wireless AirLink’s modem’s new software feature
provided via ACEmanager, that allows the users to generate reports from the
events that take place. Event Reporting Protocol is an intuitive embedded
protocol, which automatically formats the messages based on an event trigger.
The messages generated are then reported to the remote server.
