All 365 Kiosks Require:

• A persistent internet connection 

  • A “persistent” network connection is always on. This can be the local network of the business where the kiosk is located, a dedicated DSL line, or any other “always on” type connection.

• A minimum speed of 1 Mbps up and 2 Mbps down 
• Firewall exceptions to allow both inbound and outbound connections (ports listed on page three).

 The router creates a secure network connection between the devices plugged into the router and the 365 server. All traffic initiated from the kiosks travels through this secure, private connection.

This connection is called a “VPN tunnel” (Virtual Private Network) and uses a communication protocol called IPSec with IKE in order to create a private connection over public data pathways. The data is encrypted with two complex ciphers known as 3DES and AES.

 Meraki Z1 Router

The steps on the next page describe how to install your Meraki router to ensure that your kiosks network connection is private and secure.

Installing the Meraki Router

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your Internet source to the Internet port of the Meraki Z1 router.
   
   
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the port labeled LAN 1 of the Meraki Z1 to the Ethernet port of the ELO Touchscreen POS computer.
   
   
3. Verify the following using the “White List Addresses” table on page three, that:
   • UDP Port 7351 is open to the Meraki Cloud servers
   • UDP Port 9350 is open to the Meraki VPN Registry servers.
   • UDP Ports 32768 – 61000 are open to the IPSEC VPN server
   • UDP Port 9001 and TCP ports 9000, 5000, 26520 are open to the credit card servers.
