These are the high-level steps to connect a Legato device to AirVantage:

You'll need an account on AirVantage Server, you can check with your Sierra Wireless contact.

Once you are connected to your AirVantage account, you can do the following steps:

Create a new System in AirVantage Server:

• From the Inventory menu, choose Systems.
• Click the Create button (+ symbol): enter a Name (used for retrieval).
• In the Gateway tab, click Create a New Gateway (+ symbol), a new windows will appear: enter the IMEI of your device.
• Click Create.
• Once you got back on system creation window, click the Application field select 'Legato_Beta'.
• Select "I want to activate my system after creating it".
• Click Create.

Force a connection using the Agent Shell:

• Connect to the device using ssh
• Telnet to the agent shell using "telnet localhost 2000"
• In the agent shell, check the server URL: ":agent.config.server.url".
• Verify that the URL is set to "tcp://na.airvantage.net:44900"

This manually forces a connection to the server. You can also set up automatic connections or make user applications to trigger connections.
