A user reported an issue when trying to run a network connectivity check script from ControlUp - a password was being requested but the documentation was not indicating anything about this. However, the user realized they had a typo. It was then suggested to do a "test-netconnection mon1 -port 40706" which revealed the problem was internal and related to cluster communication. Support was contacted to get to the bottom of the issue. The Academy can be found at https://support.controlup.com/v1/docs/how-to-check-network-connectivity-to-controlup-cloud-services.
