Introduction

Moxa DLM (on-premises) is a self-hosted device life cycle management platform designed for managing large fleets of Moxa cellular devices deployed across remote and distributed sites. It brings fleet-wide visibility, software distribution, configuration management, and secure remote access together in a single web console.

By centralizing daily operations—such as monitoring device health, optimizing cellular connectivity, and automating software rollouts—DLM helps system integrators, asset owners, and service providers reduce site visits, standardize deployments, and keep critical IoT applications running reliably, all this while maintaining full control of data inside their own IT environment.

Real-time Operations Command Center

The DLM dashboard gives operators an overview of their entire deployment in one place.

• View how many devices are online/offline, which projects they belong to, and where they are installed

• Review warnings and alerts from the past 24 hours to quickly spot problem areas

• Visualize cellular signal quality, data usage trends, and device distribution so teams can focus on the fleets, sites, or regions that need attention

Proactive Device Health Diagnostics

With the DLM Agent running on Moxa cellular devices, key information is continuously reported back to the DLM server, including:

• System health (CPU, memory, disk usage)

• Cellular performance (RSRP, RSRQ, SINR, serving cell information)

• Device configuration and connectivity status

Secure Remote Troubleshooting

DLM provides secure browser-based remote access to registered devices without exposing their services directly to the internet. The highlights include:

• Secure VPN tunnel for one-click, browser-based SSH access

• Diagnose issues, check logs, and fix devices remotely—no site visits

• All remote sessions are fully logged for security and compliance

Intelligent Risk Alert System

Events generated by the DLM platform or reported by devices are centrally collected and correlated. You can configure who gets notified and how. For example:

• Send email alerts to operations teams when critical thresholds are exceeded (e.g., device offline, weak cellular signal, disk health issues, high disk usage)

Enterprise-grade Security

DLM (on-premises) is built to support secure, controlled management of industrial devices in production environments. Key security capabilities include:

• Per-device X.509 certificates with secure MQTT and HTTPS/TLS communication

• Role-based access control to limit privileges and reduce risks

• Comprehensive audit logs for registrations, approvals, remote access, and changes

• Self-hosted deployment so all telemetry and management data stay under your control
