Automatic OC Scanner update process

Overview

This article describes the automatic update process for the OC Scanner and outlines the requirements necessary to ensure successful updates.

Automatic update methods

1. OC Scanner can be done directly
2. Via OC Configurator

Requirements for automatic updates

To ensure the OC Scanners can update automatically, the following internet connectivity must be open on the OC scanners:

• *.octopus.cloud (HTTP/HTTPS)

• *.octopuscloud.ch (HTTP/HTTPS)

• http://crl3.digicert.com/sha2-assured-cs-g1.crl

• http://crl4.digicert.com/sha2-assured-cs-g1.crl

• http://ocsp.digicert.com

• http://cacerts.digicert.com/DigiCertSHA2AssuredIDCodeSigningCA.crt

Update from the central OC Configurator server only works if the OC Configurator has Internet access to all the mentioned URLs, and if the OC Scanners have access to the certificate endpoints on the Internet:

• http://crl3.digicert.com/sha2-assured-cs-g1.crl
• http://crl4.digicert.com/sha2-assured-cs-g1.crl
• http://ocsp.digicert.com
