If not @Alta-Chase what about @Alta-Jeff or @Alta-MikeD…
@Joe Does this article help? https://help.alta.inc/hc/en-us/articles/29110546984475-Outbound-Firewall-Rules-Required If you’d like more specifics, please list exactly what you need.
It’s a good start. What about any of the ports listed above in my Sep 2024 post? What will happen if the access point cannot reach any of the hard coded DNS servers? Will it revert to DNS #1 or DNS #2 configured on the access point instead?
We’ll update the article with these changes:
Adding UDP Port 53 for DNS, and add DNS-over-HTTPS to TCP port 443.
DHCP or statically assigned DNS servers will be used in parallel with hard-coded DNS-over-HTTP servers (CloudFlare, Google, and OpenDNS) for the AP/Switch/Route10’s DNS resolution’s needs. Control will just use DNS provided by DHCP.
Devices connected to Alta Equipment will typically use their DHCP/statically-assigned DNS, and will only use the forwarding DNS server on the APs (which uses the same DNS servers as the AP’s internal DNS) if they are not authorized on the network (whether by schedule or hotspot authentication, etc.).
