FIREWALL TEST: IP-FILTERED FIREWALLS

Find the active DNS record for services-prod.vip.csp01.saas.broadcom.com with NSLOOKUP. Execute a telnet connection to the IP address on port 443 from the VIP Enterprise Gateway(s) and/or other application servers from where VIP traffic is served. This will test IP address connectivity through your firewall. (note: The Windows Telnet client displays a blank (black) screen upon successful connection)
