First, let’s see how the camera is communicating with VMS. Please note, {basevsaas-endpoint} is the default endpoint of the web client used by your Cloud VMS deployment, for example, abc.cloud-vms.com

  1. When the camera is added, it connects to the provisioning server:
    camera.vxg.io
    port: 443

    protocol: TCP

  2. The camera sends the API request by HTTPS to the endpoint:
    https://api.uplink.{basevsaas-endpoint}/api/ws-endpoint
    port: 443
    protocol: TCP

  3. The camera gets the domain name of the container, for example: 
    84b795deaeddb6924600.uplink.{basevsaas-endpoint}
    port: 443
    protocol: TCP

  4. The camera connects for video transfer to
    deefec8c90c7fb84ec01.uplink.{basevsaas-endpoint}
    port: 443

    protocol: WS/TCP

So to white-list the camera traffic, please create the following exceptions in your firewall:

  • *.uplink.{basevsaas-endpoint}

  • camera.vxg.io
