Creating roaming connections
To exchange relevant data with your roaming partners, you need to establish a roaming connection. You need to create roaming connections based on the services you are offering within the agreement.
- If you act as a CPO, establish a connection as a CPO.
- If you act as an eMSP, establish a connection as an eMSP.
- If you act as a CPO and eMSP, establish a connection as a CPO and as an eMSP.
Depending on whether your roaming partner is a CPO or eMSP, your roaming partner's data appears under Whitelisted cards or Locations after you have created a connection and a handshake has taken place.
