Device Claims to be Online/Offline

This stage checks if Samna has connection to something. That could be only the local network.

Internet connection verified/unverified

This stage checks if the device can reach the internet.

Samna is reachable/unreachable

This stage verifies that Samna online can be reached. If you have troubles here, it’s usually the firewall blocking 443 at *.samna.io.

At a minimum, you should exempt 443

and

device.samna.io⁠

on your IoT network.

Time error on the device - Ensure that *.ntp.pool.org is exempted on your IoT network.

If you’ve reached this stage, all is fine and you will meet the Samna QR-code generator!
