I knew there was a reason I stayed on this list even after departing
the ISP, hosting and domain

We use the Oopengear ACM and IM series and they are great. My only current
issue is that Verizon does not allow for static IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously.
You can have one or the other, but not both. *facepalm*
One major point of advice with the Opengear: make sure the firmware is up to
date. Th

My $dayJob experience with cell to console in the larger locations has been

I'm only setup in buildings we own, so I've been able to put antennas up on the

Yes. I use Opengear with great success. I use Verizon, T-Mobile & AT&T
prepaid service depending on the area. When integrated with Opengear
Lighthouse, the console server is fully manageable via cellular service.

Lots of references to static IPs from cellular providers for OoB access in
this thread. Why? It seems like a dial-home scheme is an obvious solution
here, whether it's Opengear's Lighthouse product, openvpn, or whatever...
Do you all have a security directive that demands whitelisted IP addresses?
Static IPs are useful for connecting to the "home" site. If our main office is
offline for some reason, it is nice to be able to quickly connect via cellular
OoB.
I agree that other solutions (dial-home, or private network) make sense for
satellite sites.

We get static IP's to facilitate monitoring that the OOB remains online (easier
to hit a non-changing IP than getting false positives for outage between an IP
change and DDnS or whatever other type of update needs to happen), and it also
makes IPSec VPN easy if your roving sysadmins know what IP
