      Hi,

      we have a pfSense behind another pfSense and like to allow only firmware and package updates for this system.

      Which domains are required for this?

      Thanks.

        Should only need pfsense.org and netgate.com.

            That's only going to work if you're filtering DNS domains. Those domains won't resolve to the all IP addresses required for upgrade directly.

            Is this Plus or CE?

              Mhm, alias don't work...
              So I need to enable and disable the internet access rules for update manual.

              Is this Plus or CE?

              In this case it's a CE, our Plus have full internet connection.

                Then, currently at least, you would need to reach:
                ews.netgate.com
                pkg.pfsense.org
                pkg00-atx.netgate.com
                pkg01-atx.netgate.com

                For release versions that should cover it.
