Required Network Access
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The host that runs the Edge Server must allow access to port 80 via HTTP
to the general internet.
To accept connections from sync clients or connections via the wireprotocol,
the host that runs the Edge Server must allow access to incoming connections.

If you run Edge Server on your own infrastructure, you don't need to open
the instance to the general internet. You only need to ensure your client
devices can access it.

For cloud infrastructure, such as running a development environment on
EC2, you must open ports to accept incoming connections:

- Development: Use HTTP on port 80 for simplicity and speed of development.
- Production: Use SSL with port 443 to secure access to production data.

Edge Server supports TLS. You can find configuration details in the
"Complete the Edge Server Configuration Details" section on this page.
