Vocera Platform IP Ports

Vocera Platform Internal IP Ports

We recommend that you keep the following ports open to ensure effective communication between the source and destination.

It is assumed that the following sources or destinations are on the internal network. If a listed item has a source or destination outside the internal network, then it must also be opened in the external firewall.

Important: By default, the signaling gateway ports are dynamically assigned to allow clients to connect. If your organization’s firewall set up blocks clients to connect with the signaling gateway’s randomly selected ports, you can specify a value for signaling gateway ports (TCP and UDP) in the interface.properties.user file. Contact Vocera Technical Support to implement any customizations to the interface.properties.user file.

Platform Ports
