Network Configuration

The following diagram describes a typical configuration of how the various hardware devices in a facility running the Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud application access the Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud application. WMS Cloud can be setup to communicate to printers via HTTPS, LPD, or Socket protocols.

Access to Printers

Customers will need to allow access from WMS Cloud to their printers. WMS Cloud publishes IP addresses from which print requests will originate. Customers can configure this on their firewalls to selectively allow access. Using one print server handling multiple printers will usually be easier for network administrators to manage.

Secure Printing

WMS Cloud supports HTTPS as a communication protocol for printing. Customers wanting to encrypt the data being sent from WMS Cloud to their printers can use this option.
