triPOS Cloud Network Requirements/Troubleshooting
The device cloud connections must use long lived, persistent TCP connections. You may need to remove packet sniffing/ security scanning for the ports used for triPOS Cloud from any network appliances/firewalls if connectivity issues are encountered. Connectivity to triPOS Cloud should occur automatically however you may wish to confirm within the network configuration that outbound/inbound https traffic can reach the following:
• https://tripos.vantiv.com HTTPS on port 443
• device.tripos.vantiv.com TCP on port 9001
• Enable TCP/IP TLS v1.2 protocol for device.tripos.vantiv.com
• Minimum Internet Speed recommendation of 5 Mbps
If all of the above checks out and your device will not display an activation code, it is possible the device was loaded incorrectly and may need to be replaced. Contact paymentsupport@flightschedulepro.com for assistance.
