📄 Network and Firewall Configuration

Network and Firewall Configuration

Required Ports

  • UDP 3520 — Vertex data output (default)
  • UDP 3521 — Vertex Configuration Tool
  • UDP 5060 — SIP monitoring (standard SIP)
  • TCP 3520 — POS Ethernet units (default)

Network Requirements

  • CallerID device and POS must be on the same subnet (unless routing configured)
  • Ensure firewall allows traffic between device and POS on the ports above
  • Disable Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) on switch ports connected to CallerID devices

Disabling EEE

  • Cisco switches: no power efficient-ethernet auto on the interface
  • Other managed switches: Look for "Green Ethernet" or "EEE" in port settings
  • Unmanaged switches: Replace with one that doesn't enable EEE by default
