I have a vm for which I have s specific whitelist only firewall. It is supposed to only allow connections to the IPs an app connects to when syncing.
I first got the sync server IP's listening to tcpdump, then when I had the IP's I activated the whitelist.
This worked perfectly for some time, but now it appears that the IP's have changed. I could do the same thing again but repeating the process regularly is annoying and defeats the whole purpose of only ever allowing network connections to specific whitelisted serves.
Alternatively, I could set up a process to only allow network traffic from that app somewhat.
Using debian-11 btw.
Any help is appreceated !!!
EDIT: I don't own the sync servers, my app simply connects them, so I can get the updated state from my other devices
Could you explain what the app is?
You could maybe find the company's IP range and whitelist that, or just whitelist the port it's using.
But as you've seen from the replies, the information you've given is very vague.
