Firewall access from VxRail Manager to Internet using DNS name

Hello,

I am currently configuring the firewall rules between my VxRail Manager and the Internet.

I can't use a wildcard for the urls, so I can't just specify "*.emc.com"
Does anyone know where I can find this DNS name list, useful for downloading software and updates?

Is the list in this post still correct?

Thanks for your help.

There is no specific FQDN list to which VxRail tries to connect.

Plus, those depend on a VxRail versions.

Forthermore, Dell partially uses Akamai CDN service, so the actual IP address can also by dynamic.

 

However, i suppose it's not critical for your VxRail if it cannot all the url predefined, because VxRail can be used in Dark site situation.

Only when you are considering to use SRS/SCG solution with VxRail, there is specific list FQDN/static ip list as a network prerequisite.
