Hi @Namgon_Kim,

Unlike a Standalone devices, Peripheral devices do not connect directly to Losant. Typically, Peripheral devices are connected to a Gateway using something like Bluetooth. You can read more about Peripheral devices in our documentation [here](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/441493569712745184), and learn about reporting their state [here](https://docs.losant.com/devices/gateways-peripherals/#reporting-state-for-peripheral).

Thanks!  
Julia
