As a general rule, Internet-connected VMS will generate internet traffic, if anyone of a System's Servers has Internet access. When configuring your Firewall, FQDN format should be used in order to whitelist specific services, as some of the endpoints do not resolve to static IP addresses.
To see what VMS Services generate Internet Traffic, click here.
In order to allow a cloud connection and/or a client interaction with our Cloud and VMS services, your routing / Internet security software/hardware may require configuring specified address list explicitly:
Cloud:
Option 1: Wildcard Non-Region Specific (recommended)
*.vmsproxy.com
Time Sync (TCP port 37, 443)
*.rfc868server.com
Option 2: Region and Component Specific
IMPORTANT! All below FQDNs and IP addresses must be added to the pass list (not only your region-specific-ones). To learn more about various Cloud components refer to this article.
