Queries related to Cloud Manager and CVO

Hi All,

I have below queries related to Cloud Manager:

Is there a way to restrict Cloud Manage access over the internet? If any organization wants their admin to access Cloud Manager only through VPN or from the organization network, is it possible?
Once we deploy CVO, is Cloud Manager must after that for day-to-day operations?
In case the connector is unavailable, is it possible to perform configuration on CVO using a management IP address?
Is file-level restoration possible from a snapshot on CVO? When I try restoring a snapshot, it is restoring it to a new destination volume. How to perform file-level restoration?

Maybe this can be the answers:

1) There is a configuration on cloud manager in Manage Account page where you can disable the use of Saas Platform. When disabled you can only operate connecting directly to the connector ( through your intranet ).

2) No, you can also operate with CLI and System Manager directly with the Ontap cluster. Cloud Manager is good for adding o removing disks and aggregates because it manages all the commands with you cloud provider.

3) Yes, it's like any other Netapp

4) I'm not sure but, in case of a share, I think you can utilize the feature of Previous versions directly on the client.
