Axon system. Axon Dock Modules A dock has 2 major parts. One is the core module, which connects to the Internet and transfers information to Evidence.com services. The other is the individual bay, which accepts the Axon hardware.

An additional bay, called the 6-bay is available. As with the individual bays, there are 3 different 6-bays. One accepts Axon Body cameras and Axon Flex cameras and controllers. Another ac- cepts Axon Body 2 and Axon Fleet cameras, and the third is designed for Axon Flex 2 cameras and controllers.

1. Port 443 (TCP) opened for outgoing traffic to your agency’s domain (e.g., youragency.evidence. com). This is used by the dock to send video and data files to Evidence.com using the HTTPS protocol. 2. Port 53 (UDP) opened for access to DNS, if your network uses external (internet) DNS servers.
However, in certain rare circum- stances the HTTPS connection can fail if the clock on the dock is too far out of sync with the ac- tual time. To enable option two, you must select the Require SSL For Initial Time Check checkbox on the Administration settings page.
