Network Requirements

Firewall (your network)
The VPX Agent needs to communicate with the SWARM Control Center, which is hosted in the Microsoft Azure Cloud. This requires the following outgoing ports to be open in your firewall. No incoming ports are required to be open.

​
Typically, the camera video stream is accessed through port 554 (TCP/UDP)
If you are using your own MQTT broker, make sure to allow the required ports.
​
Ethernet/IP
A private IP4 address is fine. A public routable IP4 address is not required.
Make sure the MTU size is at least 1500 bytes.
Troubleshooting
Connect your PC to the network the Perception Box is connected to.
DNS
Make sure the DNS is able to resolve *.azure-devices.net, *.azure-devices-provisioning.net.
[email protected]:~$ dig +short global.azure-devices-provisioning.net

id-prod-global-endpoint.trafficmanager.net.
idsu-prod-mrs-001-su.francesouth.cloudapp.azure.com.
40.79.180.98
Ports
Make sure that all above listed outgoing ports are open.
[email protected]:~$ curl portquiz.net:8883
Port 8883 test successful!
Your IP: 127.0.0.1
SSL/TLS
Make sure the TLS certificate is valid (and not inspected). Watch out for Verification: OK.
[email protected]:~$ openssl s_client -connect global.azure-devices-provisioning.net:443
