How Can I Activate an IoT SIM Card in a Data Pool?

Log in to the GSL console and go to the Forward Data Pools page. Perform the following operations to activate IoT SIM cards in batches.

Activating Cards in Batches

The total effective data of the forward data pool depends on the number of activated cards. You can activate physical SIM cards in the pool in batches.

On the Forward Data Pools page, click Batch Activate in the Operation column.
