Brosix Servers

Optimizing Your Connection with Brosix

Brosix automatically detects the best option to connect to its servers, so in most cases, you don’t need to configure anything in your firewall or router.

 

When is Manual Configuration Necessary?

If you use a firewall or router that blocks outgoing connections based on specific rules, you may need to add Brosix server IP addresses to its allowlist.

 

Required Settings

1. Outgoing TCP Connections
Allow outgoing connections to the following ports for all Brosix servers:

• Ports: 80, 443, 5222, 7150, 7151, 8150, 9150, 10150, 11150

2. UDP Connections

• Outgoing: Allow all outgoing UDP connections to all Brosix servers on any port.
• Incoming: Allow incoming UDP connections from all Brosix servers on any port.

 

Server IP Addresses

We Recommend Using Hostnames

For easier future management, we advise using Brosix hostnames instead of IP addresses when creating firewall rules. This approach minimizes the need for adjustments as our server infrastructure grows and evolves.

Here are the hostnames:

www.brosix.com

db.brosix.com

db2.brosix.com

box-n2.brosix.com

box-n2-ls.brosix.com

stun.brosix.com

Additional Recommendation

If your router supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) and you enable it for all computers in your local network, this can significantly improve connection speed.
