===== Network Requirements =====

decimal Bolus Designer uses HTTPS communications to our [[https://direct.dotdecimal.com/|decimal Direct]] API service to authenticate users, manage application permissions, and order patient hardware. This address and port must be open to passive communication with external addresses from the machine that is running decimal Ordering Tool. Note that all communication is initiated from the application (i.e., there should be no need to forward ports to the client workstations), however, you must ensure that the following address be allowed to communicate with the user's workstation in order for the software to function properly:

| Server URL | direct.dotdecimal.com (64.128.252.104) |
| Port       | 443 (HTTPS)  |

In addition, decimal Bolus Designer requires the [[decimalauncher:decimallauncher|decimal Launcher]] application for application access and [[bolusdesigner:userguide:userguide#release_management_decimal_launcherr|release management]]. As such, satisfying the [[decimalauncher:decimallauncher#network_requirements|network requirements of the decimal Launcher]] application are also required for using the decimal Bolus Designer application.
