How do I Block Access to the Platform9 Management Plane?
Problem
For testing purposes, how do I block access to the Platform9 Management Plane?
Environment
- Platform9 - All Versions
- Comms
Answer
Attention: The following will cause your Platform9 nodes to show as "Disconnected" in the UI, and, while resources/workloads will continue to be running, management of the node and/or those same workloads, etc. may not be possible.
The pf9-comms component on each host/node communicates with the Platform9 Management Plane FQDN via TCP/443. Access may need to be blocked to the multiple IPs which the FQDN resolves to (which can be found via nslookup or dig , for example).
Platform9 only uses TCP/443 and no other ports need to be blocked.
