Cloud Sync

Endpoints that are required for Cloud Sync

Contributors netapp-bcammett

The NetApp data broker requires outbound internet access over port 443 to communicate with the Cloud Sync service and to contact a few other services and repositories. Your local web browser also requires access to endpoints for certain actions. If you need to limit outbound connectivity, refer to the following list of endpoints when configuring your firewall for outbound traffic.

Data broker endpoints

The data broker contacts the following endpoints:

Endpoints Purpose

olcentgbl.trafficmanager.net:443

To contact a repository for updating CentOS packages for the data broker host. This endpoint is contacted only if you manually install the data broker on a CentOS host.

rpm.nodesource.com:443

To contact repositories for updating Node.js, npm, and other 3rd party packages used in development.

kinesis.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:443

To contact the AWS services that Cloud Sync uses for operations (queuing files, registering actions, and delivering updates to the data broker).
