Notes
- Other browsers and versions may or may not work with the BAI Policy Manager. We make every effort to ensure the site is as accessible as possible for everyone by utilizing web standards and testing new browser versions as they become available. However, we can only provide best-effort support for the BAI Policy Manager using any browser or software version not listed above.
- Average bandwidth usage is approximately 300 kbps per active user. We recommend a connection of at least 1 Mbps per user for optimal performance, including faster document editing, autosaving, file previews, and improved application responsiveness. Embedded video playback is best at 1.5 Mbps for reliable 480p streaming or higher.
- Sites listed in the connectivity section should be allow-listed by DNS name rather than IP address in all security appliances or security software. IP addresses will change as we add functionality, server capacity, or switch to backup providers in the event of a datacenter outage. Allow-listing the entire bai.org domain (*.bai.org) might be the most convenient approach for many organizations.
