Network traffic for Windows Update (Firewall logs)

Hello,
I am checking a firewall log (Watchguard firebox) to monitor the network traffic for a windows LAN.
I need to filter out the network load related to Windows Updates.
The watchguard fields do not have sni in all records (sometime I have sni=download.microsoft.com, but sometimes sni is empty but destination IP is always available)

Is there a list of the IPs used for windows update?
( I did not manage to find it)
Is there another way to segregate the windows update traffic from other traffics?

Appreciate if you share your ideas.

Thank you.
