Determining Network Requirements for Upgrades and Updates

The update servers for Cisco content security appliances use dynamic IP addresses. If you have strict firewall policies, you may need to configure a static location for AsyncOS upgrades. If you determine that your firewall settings require a static IP for upgrades, contact Cisco Customer support to obtain the required URL addresses.

Note
If you have any existing firewall rules allowing download of legacy upgrades from upgrades.cisco.com ports such as 22, 25, 80, 4766, they will need to be removed and/or replaced with revised firewall rules.
