TrackIT Data Broker
The TrackIT Data Broker extension enables RAK gateways to forward WisNode Tag data to the TrackIT platform.
NOTE

- WisGateOS 2 v2.3.1 or later: Install the TrackIT Data Broker Extension before adding the gateway to TrackIT. Without the extension, the gateway cannot forward WisNode Tag data to TrackIT.

The gateway can still receive LoRaWAN packets from WisNode Tag, but the data will not be forwarded to the TrackIT platform.
