In this article we're going to review creating your Peplink InControl2 environment. If you've purchased a new Peplink device it comes with a year of InControl2 access (among other things) for you to manage your device.
Do I need InControl2?
Well, no. InControl2 is not required to manage your device but there are a few good reasons to use it:
- It's included for one year with the purchase of a new Peplink device, regardless of which reseller/partner/marketplace you buy it from.
- InControl gives you a whole host of information in a single pane of glass. See our InControl2 Cheat Sheet if you're curious just how much information you get.
- It allows you to "lay claim" to your Peplink device. Once you add your device to InControl, only you and your designated administrators, if any, can remove it or move it to another organization.
- InControl2 is required for a few things such as eSIM provisioning
Prerequisites
- Have a Peplink ID. If you don't, you can create one at the InControl2 login page by clicking "Sign Up" just under the login details.
- (Optional) Have a Peplink device that you're ready to add to InControl.
- This device cannot be claimed by another InControl organization.
