Windows User
We require a dedicated Windows Logon user for SmartSync. Specifically, this ensures that the SmartSync apps and services are run by a user with full access to all relevant areas of the server. This user must be able to lock their session as opposed to logging in and out.
- has Full Control on C:\ProgramData\BeanworksSyncTool
- has Full Control on the path(s) to your Company File(s)
For ease of use, we recommend including keywords like ‘SmartSync’ or ‘Beanworks’ in the user name so it can be easily located & verified. You can refer to the following article in our Help Centre to add a local user to your system.
Firewall Setup
SmartSync is both an SFTP client (data transfer) and an HTTPS client (authentication). Connections are initiated by the client, reaching out from your server to our infrastructure. Please ensure that the following traffic is allowed through your firewall, so SmartSync can send & receive data to our cloud infrastructure.
If your firewall is local to the installation machine, you may be able to whitelist using the combination of application name and port, or domain and port. If your firewall is at the perimeter, you may need to use the combination of machine name and port.
Domain or Service Name | Port or Traffic Type | Notes |
22000 (SFTP) | Port 22000 is specific to Quadient AP | |
443 (HTTPS Traffic) Outbound | These authorizations are needed to allow SmartSync to do the following:
| |
Windows Executables: SmartSync Manager SmartSync Connector | 443 (HTTPS Traffic) Outbound | |
Windows Services: SmartSync Connector Service, SmartSync Polling Service | 443 (HTTPS Traffic) Outbound |
SmartSync Auto-Updater
SmartSync receives periodical updates through our Auto-Updater. Please ensure that the following IP Addresses are whitelisted in your firewall to allow these updates:
- "ip_prefix":"52.95.145.0/24"
- "ip_prefix":"52.95.146.0/23"
- "ip_prefix":"52.92.84.0/22"
These are the IP addresses for AWS services within Canada (ca-central-1). All requests from the Auto-Updater to our servers are port 443 (HTTPS Traffic) Outbound.
