Configuring Firewall and Proxy Access

This article will help you and your IT department configure your firewall and proxy settings to ensure seamless access to Propeller. To use Propeller’s platform and all its features, you'll need to whitelist a few specific domains and ports.

Required Domains and Ports

Propeller’s core services operate on the following domains and ports. Please ensure these are allowed through your corporate firewall:

  • *.prpellr.com
  • *.propelleraero.com

Both of these domains need to be accessible on Port 443. This is the standard port for secure HTTPS traffic.

Important Note: Propeller does not use static IP addresses, so you must use domain-based whitelisting rather than IP-based whitelisting.

Additional Services

To make sure you can access all features of the Propeller platform, including our in-app chat support, tutorials, and image hosting, please also whitelist these domains:

By allowing these domains and ports, your IT department can ensure a smooth and fully functional experience with the Propeller platform. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to our support team!
