RAP 109 at an external event - Blocked ports?

  • 1.  RAP 109 at an external event - Blocked ports?

    Posted Nov 19, 2014 09:06 AM

    Hey Guys,

     

    I need to setup a RAP 109 for use an external event. For this to work at the site, i need to speak with the local network guys.

     

    Is there anything specific i need to ask them to do for it to work?

     

    IE: Do i need to get them to unblock ports on their firewalls?  Or is there anything else i need to ask them for it to work?

     

    Any help much appreciated! :)

     

    Thanks

    You'll need to make sure the RAP can contact the controller over UDP 4500.  You'll also need to make sure DNS is allowed if the RAP is provisioned by hostname and not IP.

    Awesome! Thanks for thw quick response!

     

    I was thinking the same. So thats pretty much it, theres nothing that can really get in the way of these working?

    Yup that should do it.    I would definitely provision them first; and just make sure you are clear to the event staff so you are not troubleshooting when you get there.

    open the following ports on the firewall to make RAP able to communicate with the controller
     4500 UDP
     69 UDP
