A user was experiencing issues with downloading files on VPN through the new Management feature. They noticed in the network log that the system was attempting to upload the requested file to Azure before downloading it. The user shared their findings in the ticket and was asked to provide details on their VPN type. They also brought up the need for specific IPs or more granular access for the firewall team. Another user mentioned they were curious if the same issue would occur with their company's new VPN. The original user suggested it was more likely a firewall policy issue than a VPN issue. A request was made for the user to provide unfiltered Wireshark logs for troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting ControlUp Upgrade Process
An employee is troubleshooting the upgrade process for ControlUp. They are updating from version 9.0.5.423 to 9.1.5.445 and have encountered an rpc error when trying to add a monitor to a specific region. The issue is due to the console using the Windows identity of the person running the console, so the user may need to run the console as a user with permission or deploy the monitor through PowerShell. The recommended upgrade order is console, monitor, data collector agents, and all other agents. The ControlUp website has a guide for upgrading and the employee has a further question about downloading the Real-Time DX Console.

How to Troubleshoot Connection Issues with ControlUp for Physical Endpoints
There is a potential issue with connecting to a Windows device with Edge DX installed. It was suggested to check the event viewer and device events, and to allow the traffic on the proxy/firewall. The agent's outbound tunnel may also facilitate inbound requests, but if the websocket connection fails, a different method will be used. The documentation for this can be found at https://support.controlup.com/v1/docs/prerequisites-for-controlup-for-physical-endpoints-apps, and logs may also appear in the device events in Edge DX itself.
