Network Requirements
Supra requires local network connectivity between the Supra Server and client devices, as well as internet access to the signageOS Cloud. This page documents the network requirements.
Cloud Connectivity
Both the Supra Server and client devices need internet access to communicate with the signageOS Cloud for configuration delivery, telemetry, and script execution.
For general signageOS network requirements (domains, ports, firewall rules), see the Network Requirements for Ports and Domains page.
Local Network Requirements
The Supra Server and client devices must be on the same local network (same Location). The following ports and protocols are used for direct communication:
Streaming Protocols
| Client Platform | Protocol | Port(s) | Direction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Samsung Tizen 4–7 | TCP | 6114 | Client → Supra Server |
| Samsung Tizen 2.4 | UDP/RTP + TCP | 5000, 6114 | Supra Server → Client |
| Android 7+ | WebSocket (WS/WSS) | 6117 | Client ↔ Supra Server |
| Emulators | WebSocket (WS/WSS) | 6117 | Client ↔ Supra Server |
Additional Supra Server Ports
Beyond the streaming protocols above, the Supra Server uses additional ports for interaction, stats, and other non-streaming communication:
| Port | Protocol | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 6112 | HTTP | HTTP API |
| 6113 | TCP | TCP |
| 6115 | — | Reserved |
| 6116 | WS | WebSocket |
Monitoring
If the Grafana monitoring stack is installed:
| Service | Port | Protocol | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grafana dashboard | 3000 | HTTP | Access via http://<supra-server-ip>:3000 |
Firewall Configuration
Ensure the following network paths are open:
- Supra Server → Internet: Required for signageOS Cloud communication (configuration, telemetry, script downloads).
- Client Devices → Internet: Required for signageOS Cloud communication.
- Client Devices → Supra Server: Required for streaming and interaction (local network).
- Supra Server → Client Devices: Required for streaming (particularly UDP/RTP for Tizen 2.4).
The Supra Server uses ports 6112–6117. Ensure these ports are open between the Supra Server and client devices. Additionally, port 5000 (UDP/RTP) is required for Samsung Tizen 2.4 streaming.
