IMPORTANT NOTE: If intending to use Dial Capture or serial for sending
alarms, please confirm beforehand with your ARC that their automation
software is capable of differentiating correctly between pin alarms (NGP
Advanced or NGP Advanced Extra or Addsecure Platform generated
alarms) and alarm panel generated ZONE alarms.

IP specification notes
IP Protocol: TCP
Port: 443 or 10443
Data Usage/requirements
IP polling is every 30 seconds. A poll
and response results in 288 total bytes
transferred (including IP headers).
A small number of alarms will also
typically be generated per day and
these result in 296 bytes transferred.
Overall this generates approximately
800K bytes per day, per site.
Traffic direction
The NGP Advanced and NGP Advanced
Extra establishes an outgoing TCP
connection from your network
to the Addsecure platform. Once
this outgoing TCP connection has
been established, traffic over that
connection is 2-way.
Additional protocols
Only TCP is required from your
network.
50
Port forwarding
No ports need to be forwarded in the
incoming direction. The outgoing TCP
connection connects to port 443 or
10443 on the Addsecure network, so
you would need to allow outgoing
access to port 443 or 10443 if you block
that by default.
NAT
Not required.
4G/2G requirements
You do not need to route mobile
traffic. The mobile connection from
the communicator through to the
Addsecure platform and on to the ARC
is entirely independent of your network.
DHCP and static addressing
The communicators can be configured
as either DHCP clients or with specific
static IP addresses on your internal
network as you prefer.
DNS server
The device uses host names for
establishing connection to the servers
so DNS addresses will be required.
