===== Destination IP and port to allow on your firewall ===== | ===== Destination IP and port to allow on your firewall ===== | ||
- | The most common way to connect a display to zebrix is through http (port TCP 80). You can also use https (443) if you want an encrypted connection. | + | {{ :public_media:en:en_zebrix_network_flows.jpg?nolink&800 |}} |
- | Please note that zebrix connectivity is not compatible with proxy server. If you have to use a proxy on http and https, you will have to connect your to zebrix via TCP 6001 (http) or TCP 6002 (https). | + | |
- | Please allow the port that fits the best with your situation. | + | |
- | If you are in Europe: | + | The most common way a zebrix player will use to connect to the zebrix server is through http (TCP 80 port). You can also use https (443) if you want an encrypted connection. This channel is used for media downloads and receiving instructions from the web platform. |
+ | Please note that zebrix connectivity is not compatible with proxy server. If you have to use a proxy on http and https that couldn't be bypassed, you will have to connect your player to zebrix via TCP 6001 (http) or TCP 6002 (https). Please allow the port that fits the best with your situation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In addition, we highly recommend that you also allow the player to connect to UDP 1194 port on the zebrix management server that can allow our technical/support team to connect remotely for troubleshooting/diagnostic purpose. This channel is encrypted by default. | ||
