PEN DEVELOPMENT DEVICE CERTIFICATION PROCESS

3.4.1 Early Testing Process Flow
DEVELOPER may request early testing if development is required prior to certification.
The ODPT will review the request and approve it if there is a need for live network
testing during development.
Early Network Access Program (ENAP)
● If the DEVELOPER is using a VZW certified module, up to 20 activations can be
allowed for developmental purposes. Without a VZW certified module, up to 2
activations can be allowed for developmental purposes. Upon uploading of test
Device IMEIs to the ODP, VZW will load the test Device(s) MEID/ESN/IMEI in DMD.
The DEVELOPER should then work with their VZW sales representative to subscribe
and activate lines to connect the test Device(s) with VZW network. The test MDNs
must be disconnected no later than 60 day after testing is completed. In order to
obtain approval for more than 20 test device IMEI activations, the OEM must have
agreed to the terms of the Certification Agreement, and provided the Certification
Manager for the device with a detailed business justification detailing: the need for
additional test devices; a list of persons/entities who will be using the additional
devices; where the additional devices will be used; for what length of time the
additional devices be needed; and the current target date for completing device
certification. The Verizon Open Development certification team will consider the
requests for the additional test devices over the 20 device limit and will approve or
deny the request, based on the business justification, at its discretion. If the business
case is approved, the device OEM will be allowed to update the additional test
device IMEIs for approval by their assigned device certification manager.
● If the DEVELOPER is using a VZW approved embedded modem, up to 20
activations can be allowed for developmental purposes. Upon the uploading of
test Device IMEIs to the ODP, VZW will load the test Device(s) MEID/ESN/IMEI in
DMD. The DEVELOPER should then work with their VZW sales representative to
subscribe and activate lines to connect the test Device(s) with VZW network. The
test MDNs must be disconnected no later than 60 day after testing is completed. In
order to obtain approval for more than 20 test device IMEI activations, the OEM must
have agreed to the terms of the Certification Agreement, and provided the
Certification Manager for the device with a detailed business justification detailing:
the need for additional test devices; a list of persons/entities who will be using the
additional devices; where the additional devices will be used; for what length of time
the additional devices be needed; and the current target date for completing device
certification. The Verizon Open Development certification team will consider the
requests for the additional test devices over the 20 device limit and will approve or
deny the request, based on the business justification, at its discretion. If the business
case is approved, the device OEM will be allowed to update the additional test
device IMEIs for approval by their assigned device certification manager.
● DEVELOPER shall not activate or use test devices on the Verizon Wireless network
other than for internal testing purposes prior to device certification while such devices
are in ENAP testing. ENAP test devices are to be used by the DEVELOPER for
development and testing of devices in preparation for certification test activities only.
Such test devices should not be activated and used on the Verizon Wireless network
in connection with end customer activities.
