I’d really like to install and get DigitalOcean’s Agent feature working on one of my droplets that has inbound rules. Is there some static IP that I can post in as the source?

Accepted Answer
The DigitalOcean monitoring agent should not need inbound firewall rules to function. Though it does require outbound TCP access on ports 80 and 443 to authenticate to the Monitoring service and to send metrics.
The agent need to be able to access the DigitalOcean metadata API at: http://169.254.169.254/metadata/v1/ as well as the metrics service itself at https://sonar.digitalocean.com. Additionally, in order to allow the agent to update itself https://repos.sonar.digitalocean.com
You can find their current IP addresses using: dig +short sonar.digitalocean.com and dig +short repos.sonar.digitalocean.com on the command line. Currently those are 162.243.188.200 and 151.101.21.7 respectively.
