# About Remote SIM Provisioning

Remote SIM provisioning allows you to alter the configuration of a SIM card through commands over the wireless network. For example, this enables you to switch to another network operator without having to change the physical SIM-card in your device.

On [kpn.com](https://www.kpn.com/zakelijk/internet-of-things/m2m.htm) you can download a [whitepaper explaining more about eSIM and RSP](https://www.kpn.com/w3/file?uuid=8e525061-cf00-403e-aa26-fb48e20ad8d1\&owner=8de86c61-bdc8-4848-872e-e5b380e682fc\&contentid=40666).

## KPN RSP Gateway

If you are a KPN remote SIM provisioning customer, the KPN RSP Gateway allows you to command your RSP SIMs through APIs. We identify two types of customer scenarios:

1. KPN provides RSP SIMs with a bootstrap profile from KPN - full access possible.
2. KPN only provides virtual profiles for non-KPN RSP SIMs - only access to profile management.

You can read on to learn more about Remove SIM provisioning and the KPN RSP Gateway.
