ES Content Update Firewall exceptions

Hi,

which URLs have to be opened in the firewall for the ES Contant Update App?
What else may need to be opened in the firewall for the app to work properly?

 

Regards,

Alex

Hi @IzI ,

ES Content Updates App is an app from Splunkbase that you instal on your Search heads, so it doesn't need any additional firewall route.

ok, but does it require URL approvals?

Hi @IzI ,

you have to download and install it.

Why these questions, what's the issue?

Ciao.

The server has no direct access to the internet and we only want to open individual URLs that are required to run the updates. So the question is, which URL the content update needs, to load its content.
