When the Data Collector or JetAdvice Edge connector is installed in a hosted environment the following ports need to be open from the Hosted server to the network where the device is installed.
Data Collector
The Data Collector uses the following ports to sent data to JetAdvice Manager.
Data Collector tor firewall requirements: See 2b in the troubleshooting guide
Edge Connector (preferred)
The Edge connector uses the following ports to sent data to JetAdvice Manager.
Edge connector firewall requirements: See 2b in the troubleshooting guide
Example:
The Data Collector or Edge connector is installed in a hosted server with IP: 192.168.0.1 (VLAN 0).
Each VLAN has the following IP structure:
Using Data collector
Ports 161 and 162 should be open from VLAN 0 (IP: 192.168.0.1) to all other VLANs so the data collector can discover and collect data from the printers in VLAN 1, VLAN 2, VLAN 3, VLAN 4 and VLAN 5.
Using Edge connector
Port 161 should be open from VLAN 0 (IP: 192.168.0.1) to all other VLANs so the data collector can discover and collect data from the printers in VLAN 1, VLAN 2, VLAN 3, VLAN 4 and VLAN 5.
This is how the network ranges for the different VLANs should be defined in the data collector.
