# Cortina Network Requirements

> Connection methods, VPN setup, and IP addresses to whitelist so Cortina terminals can reach Nayax.

For communication between Nayax and the Integrator, we support the following methods:

* HTTPS TLS 1.2/1.3
* VPN S2S (Site-to-Site VPN)

If the integrator wishes to establish a VPN tunnel to the Nayax server, the VPN tunnels for Test and Production will be established during the initial setup stage. The integrator will be asked to complete a VPN request form and join a technical call. During the call, the tunnels will be created and tested. Integration testing will be performed only after the VPN is set up and working.

<Note>
  **Authentication with a VPN**

  In cases where a VPN is established, the integrator may skip the `Start Session` authentication stage. However, Nayax recommends implementing it in all integrations.

## Whitelist IPs

To ensure smooth communication, the Integrator must whitelist the following Nayax public IP addresses.

| Environment | Region             | IP Addresses                                                          |
| :---------- | :----------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Production  | Germany (DE)       | `137.221.37.126`, `185.159.234.2`                                     |
| Production  | United States (US) | `72.28.118.100`, `72.28.111.132`, `185.159.233.2`                     |
| Production  | Israel (IL)        | `185.159.232.2`, `84.110.125.194`, `82.102.172.206`, `212.179.76.198` |
| QA          | —                  | `31.154.55.2`                                                         |

If required, the Integrator should also allow access from the Nayax QA environment so the Nayax QA team can conduct automation testing.
