Network Requirements

For System Administrators setting up an Agent on their network it’s important to understand that the firewall does not need to allow external devices to connect to the Agent. The firewall only needs to allow the Agent to make an outbound connection to the NEXT cloud on TCP Port 443 (and UDP Port 123 if external NTP is required)

  1. Plug Agent in using the included power supply.

  2. Connect Agent to your local network via CAT5, CAT5E, or CAT6 cable. 

Sign into the Building Optimization Broker

  2. Sign in using your previously created WennSoft account.
