XCP Activation behind Proxy

darraghos — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 10:06:17 GMT

My company does not allow internet access without traversing our Web proxy. Is there a way to get the XCP tool to use as web proxy for the activation? Looking at a network trace it appears to try and go straight out to the internet.

XCP Licenses are configurable to match your needs and environment. Standard licenses require the XCP host to be connected to the Internet so it can access the NetApp site for activation and license control. There's also the option to request offline licenses for closed environments that can't access the Internet.
