Protocols used

DHCP

All modules are by default set to obtain network parameters from DHCP server. If a module shall use a static IP, then it must be defined by a local IT before the installation together with the network mask, gateway IP and DNS IP.

DNS

If any network address is defined as URL then the unit must have access to DNS.

HTTP TCP port 80 and HTTPS TCP port 443

By default, the modules transmit the data to Boomerang 3 system using POST to Boomerang 3 address on port 80 for http or port 443 for https. These ports must be opened in firewall.

In case Boomerang 3 uses other, non-default port numbers, the same non-default ports must be opened in firewall.

NTP

WIN gateway, BBO Buffer and BBO modules v.2.11 and higher need access to NTP server to regulate their internal real time clock. The clock is used to create a measurement time stamp included in the measurement data sent to Boomerang 3 which is then used as a measurement time stamp in the system.

Additional requirements per module type

BBO and WIN nodes

UDP port 30303 is used by a tool that detects BBO and WIN modules.

WIB node

The WIB module communicates over WiFi.

  • Frequency of operation: 2.4GHz WiFi. (5GHz Wi-Fi is not supported)

  • Authentication: Supports WEP128, WPA-PSK (TKIP), and WPA2-PSK (AES). Password(s) must be provided to the installer before the installation.

  • SSID: Network SSID name must be visible, especially if several WiFi networks are available. WIB node will scan all available channels for suitable AP candidates.

The WIB node uses UDP-packets on pre-defined port number (default 6767) to communicate with the server. If the WIB-node is behind a firewall or router, openings must be made in the firewall settings so that this specific port number is allowed from both LAN to WAN and WAN to LAN.

BTINY

To set the log interval of BTINY sensors, B3 needs access to:

https://api.disruptive-technologies.com/

https://identity.disruptive-technologies.com/

CG1018 RaspFlash

CG1018 RaspFlash checks a connection with network by pinging a configurable URL. The module reboots if it cannot ping this address. By default this external URL is set to google.com. In case the CG1018 RaspFlash is installed in an internal network with no access to Internet the aURL must be modified to the one that can be succesfully pinged by the module.

The network settings and the external URL must be defined to guarantee a correct detection of the connection status.

VLAN

A dedicated VLAN is recommended to avoid interference from any other equipment connected to the network.

System access requirement

VPN

The customer shall provide ICU with a VPN solution for support.

Hardware installation requirements

BBO

  • One 230V/50Hz mains socket.

  • A network socket.

BBL

  • One 230V/50Hz mains socket.

  • A network socket.

WIN gateway

  • One 230V/50Hz mains socket.

  • A network socket.

WIN node

  • Optional one 230V/50Hz mains socket (mandatory for 4-20mA node).

WIB node

  • Access to WiFi

  • Optional one 230V/50Hz mains socket (mandatory for 4-20mA node)

Documentation required by ICU at latest a week before installation start

  • Floor plan(s) presenting the measuring points’ locations.

  • Boomerang 3 configuration file with the system configuration defining groups, users, objects, measuring points and alarms distribution.

Disclaimer

If any of the requirements in this document are NOT fulfilled, the installation may take longer than planned.

ICU Scandinavia AB will then be entitled to charge additional fees based on the applicable price list.
