open firewall to connect skyline advisor

Dear All,

I am checking the way to open firewall as below

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Skyline-Collector/2.4/Planning-and-Deployment-Guide/GUID-899C1C09-...

skyline need to open firewall for external network

vcsa.vmware.com, vapp-updates.vmware.com

However, we couldn't open it as dns name (fqdn)

Could you give me a guidance to open it by ip?

Hello @SDKWON,

Welcome to Skyline Communities!

We recommend opening the firewall/proxy rules for vcsa.vmware.com and vapp-updates.vmware.com using FQDN because these two endpoints are managed by a Load Balanced environment. Hence, IP addresses for the endpoints are subject to change.

Sincerely,

Aryan Garg
