IP allowlisting in IP Access Control settings
When using IT Glue's IP Access Control, you may receive an error indicating that you require specific IP addresses which are required to be added to IT Glue.
To solve this issue, you can configure the IP allowlisting for Lifecycle Manager sync servers in your IP Access Control settings. You can request Lifecycle Manager's IP Allowlist by contacting support at https://help.lifecyclemanager.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.
As soon as you have allowlisted Lifecycle Manager's sync servers, you will be all set up for a successful IT glue integration. Additional information can be found in the Requesting Lifecycle Manager's IP Allowlist article.
When you click Save IT Glue Setup, Lifecycle Manager performs a full sync. When finished, you'll be able to view your hardware assets in your account.
