Core Connectivity
The OKM must be connected via a hardwired Ethernet RJ45 cable. Wi‑Fi is not supported.
OKM requires Internet access over HTTPS on TCP port 443. Ensure outbound connections are allowed.
All traffic is secured with TLS 1.2 or higher.
IP Addressing and DNS
Provide DHCP on the OKM VLAN/subnet to assign IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS servers.
Static IP addressing is supported but recommended only when required; document assigned IP, mask, gateway, and DNS.
DNS resolution must be available for the OKM to reach InVue service endpoints.
Firewall and Proxy Rules
URLs to Whitelist

If egress filtering is by IP, prefer hostname allowlists to accommodate CDN or IP changes. If IPs must be used, monitor for updates.
If an explicit proxy is required for outbound Internet access, allow CONNECT to the hostnames above on port 443 and exclude SSL inspection when possible.
Network Placement
The OKM may reside on any subnet with unrestricted outbound Internet access; it does not need access to internal corporate resources.
Latent or metered networks can affect performance; ensure stable connectivity with typical broadband characteristics (e.g., < 150 ms latency to Internet, minimal packet loss).
Access Controls
If MAC address filtering is enabled, add the OKM’s MAC address (printed on the device chassis) to the allowed list.
Update allowlists if the OKM hardware is replaced, as the MAC will change.
Recommended VLAN/Subnet Settings
Enable DHCP with option 6 (DNS) pointing to resolvers that can reach public DNS.
Permit outbound TCP 443 to the listed hostnames; no inbound rules are required.
Disable captive portals on the OKM network or pre-authorize the device MAC.
Validation Checklist
api.invue.com and invue-am.com.Troubleshooting Tips
No connectivity after install: check switch port enabled, VLAN assignment, and that no captive portal is intercepting traffic.
Intermittent updates or pairing failures: verify outbound HTTPS is not rate limited or inspected; confirm DNS latency and packet loss are within normal ranges.
Hostname resolution errors: ensure DNS servers provided by DHCP can resolve public domains and are not blocked by local policies.
