Firewall/Network Requirements

Firewall/Network Requirements

This article will discuss the firewall/network requirements for the software on a Boulder AI device to function properly. 


The following outbound sites/ports must be opened to allow a DNNCam or DNNNode to properly communicate with the Boulder AI Platform, enable OTA updates, and provide the BAI team with remote access for troubleshooting:

URL
Port
googleapis.com
443
mqtt.googleapis.com
8883
gcr.io
443
s3.amazonaws.com
443
hosted.mender.io
443
hosted.mender.io
9000
ident.me
443
checkip.amazonaws.com
80
remoteaccess.boulderai.com
22
ip-api.com
80
api.sunrise-sunset.org
443


In addition, either 8.8.8.8 must be routable or a customer DNS needs to be configured using the Web UI. See the Web UI Configuration Guide to configure the DNS.

It is also required to have access to a routable NTP server, which can also be configured using the Web UI v2. Our default is 0.us.pool.ntp.org. NTP uses Port 123. 

If you have any questions regarding the network configurations necessary for DNN-Device deployment, please reach out to support@boulderai.com
