ds-1280zj-dm21 mounting & weatherproofing?

I have a ds-1280zj-dm21 junction box and went to fit it to the exterior brick wall on the front of my house.

As the bricks are not level, I noticed there's a fair few gaps around the edges where rain could enter especially through the hole in the middle where the ethernet cable will be and I was concerned this could fill the box up on a bad weather day.

Do people just apply some sealant around the edges and the centre hole to avoid this issue when mounting to an uneven surface?

Yes, sealant is probably your best option on a hard/uneven surface
