Network requirements

Sensorberg devices should be in safe virtual networks, separated from any other network device. All sensorberg devices will use a defined set of technologies to communicate to each other. This chapter will bring some technical details to all network operators who want to integrate our solution.

Basic requirements

For simplicity, we recommend to use one VLAN for all sensorberg hardware. This ensures that no routing or firewall issues preventing our devices from connecting. If this is not possible for your installation, you may run sensorberg devices in multiple VLANs as long as the router or firewall is allowing the following set of services between all components:

Protocol Port Purpose
TCP 443, 9443 Over-the-air upgrade of Access Hub Lite
TCP 8883 - 8885 Secure MQTT connection for sensorberg components

Outgoing connections to internet

Any sensorberg device uses the following, outgoing connections, which should be allowed by your firewall or router:

Protocol Port Purpose
TCP 22 Emergency connection to our devices, opens up a SSH Tunnel
TCP 80 HTTP Traffic for operating system updates
TCP 443 HTTPS Traffic for connection to your Smart Space
TCP 4505 - 4506 Saltstack ZeroMQ connection for software updates by Sensorberg
TCP 8883 MQTT connection to your Smart Space
TCP 9443 Encrypted logfile shipping to Sensorberg cloud
UDP 123 NTP timeserver
