Assigned gateways are gateways that you put to work inside WisDM by adding them to a location. Below is the primary flow to help you understand more about assigned and unassigned gateways.
WisDM - Organization - Location
When you add a gateway to WisDM, you add them to a location. Without specifying a location, you cannot add a gateway. Once you’ve specified the location and added them, you have an assigned gateway.
Unassigned gateways are gateways that you remove from the location. Removing them means they are not actively working for you but remain within the organization for you to assign to a location later.
Note: If the gateway was assigned to a location and then unassigned, the gateway's LoRa Network settings will be restored to the factory defaults.
