Edge 340 Registration

This article provides instructions to register Cisco Edge 340 devices on Cloud and On-premise Appspace deployments, using the following two options:


Prerequisites

  • The workstation running the wizard must have Microsoft .Net Framework 4.5 installed.

  • The Appspace Cloud account should have sufficient Appspace IDs/client access licenses (CALs) to register the desired number of devices.

  • Ensure the following network port requirements are met:

    Source Destination Ports Description
    Workstation Appspace HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443) A web browser with Adobe Flash 10.0 Plugin is used to access Appspace. You must add appspace.com to the list of trusted websites, and enable pop-ups. The firewall/proxy server must allow access to the Appspace domain URL/IP.
    Workstation Edge 340 SSH (22) The Edge wizard tool accesses the device via SSH during registration.
    Edge 340 Appspace HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443) Background agents on media player devices connect to Appspace for content sync and player status reporting. The firewall/proxy server must allow access to the Appspace domain URL/IP.
    Edge 340 Valid NTP Server (e.g. pool.ntp.org) UDP (123) ICMP The media player requires access to a valid NTP server to sync its system clock. This can be an internal network NTP server or a public NTP server on the pool.ntp.org domain name. The firewall/proxy server must allow access to a selected NTP server.
