Firewall Settings using Adobe CC

Question

Hi Community,we are working in an Internet restricted department and we have to setup our firewall for the minimal requirements to work with Adobe CC without any licensing issues. It is not allowed for us to use external cloud storage and so on. We found a list with some FQDNs and ports[1] but we are unsure what is necessary and what we can ignore. Can anyone filter out the absolutely necessary FQDNs to avoid an application lock down caused by a licence check issue? The list seems to be a complete list because the FQDN interaction.adobe.com for example doesn't sound like an absolutely necessary FQDN for licensing...[1] https://forums.adobe.com/message/6986951#6986951Thanks in advance & Bye Tom

Hi Tom,

Typically, in an enterprise environment, you use the Adobe Admin Console to configure services to which you want users to have access. However, there are some core services that cannot be disabled using the Admin Console. A firewall can be configured to block some of these endpoints so as to prevent access to Creative Cloud services by users. For more information, see the white paper: Controlling Access to Creative Cloud Services available for download from the Adobe.com website at http://www.adobe.com/go/cce_securedeployment. Blocking the services and websites listed in this document will not block Creative Cloud Packager access to desktop applications.

Servus Rohit,>Please check this link - Adobe Creative Cloud Network EndpointsI found that list already but it's a huge amount of addresses. Our concern is to prevent an application lock down due to any failed licenses checks during normal working procedures. It's not necessary for the user to install any further applications after the initial setup is completed. So we walked through the list and found an interesting section "Desktop Application Licensing Services" with only one address "*.licenses.adobe.com" and it would be great when this is enough but there was another section who could be interesting "Authentication and Authorization Services" but we are unsure if we really need all those addresses for our concern.Do you have more details about what addresses we really need to white list?Thx & Bye Tom
