Update manager

Hello,

Currently i restrict esxi management interface to only can access from vcenter, and with this restriction i always failed when try to update the esxi. So i just want to know for updating the esxi, the host should be connected to the internet? In my mind, the update only need coonnection from esxi host to vcenter and vcenter to the internet.

In which way you want to patch your ESXi host? 

via vLCM or via cli? 

Probably via vLCM - in this case you should create a baseline in vCenter and initiate an update/ remediation 

nothing more.
