Hi,  
I have installed Netdata on a number of devices… great product by the way!!!  
Some of my devices sit behind firewalls and I need to know what IP’s, Ports and Domain Names I need to allow on the firewall to let the agent report to the cloud.  
Many thanks, James

Hi James,

do you know the ports that are needed for the netdata agent now?  
Same Issue.

Hi guys, just seen nobody replied to this, apologies for this!

Please check the [Agent-Cloud link (ACLK) | Learn Netdata](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/aclk) page.

There is an outbound connection on port `443`from the agent and both `api.netdata.cloud` and `mqtt.netdata.cloud` need to be whitelisted.

Also, if you are connecting through a proxy, please see [Connect Agent to Cloud | Learn Netdata](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/claim#connect-through-a-proxy) .
