Some institutions, especially hospitals, have firewalls enabled for security reasons. A firewall is an internet term for a kind of 'filter' which restricts internet access for security reasons. If users are experiencing difficulty accessing our server due to a firewall at their institution, they should contact their institution's technical support to ask if their firewall blocks access to port 3003.
