Ports and Protocols

Overview

You must configure your network to permit communication to-and-from the 7SIGNAL Cloud hosting your instance.  Please make sure the ports, protocols and links below are available or whitelisted.

In North America, outbound access must be allowed to this IP range 64.65.61.0/24 which is where 7SIGNAL customer cloud instances are hosted.

For locations connecting to EMEA or outside North America, please submit a support case via Request Support to request the IP address.

TCP/443, TCP/7799, TCP/7800

Cloud Management

We do not recommend filtering by port because it may cause service disruptions. As this is a cloud application and dynamic in nature, all ports should be allowed for the best customer experience.

Sensor Port Check Verification

After a sensor is plugged into the network, you may find that it cannot connect to the cloud.  If so, you can SSH to the sensor and run the 7config conn check command to gain more insight. You should expect to see the following output:

Success: Carat server reachable by using carat_ip:7799
Success: TLS connection established to Carat carat_ip:7799
Success: Carat server reachable by using carat_ip:7800
Success: TLS connection established to Carat carat_ip:7800
