Issue:

Allowing access to Renaissance resources for Accelerated Math, Accelelerated Reader, MathFacts in a Flash, Star Custom, Star Early Literacy, Star Math, and Star Reading.

Resolution:

Your district or school network may have a firewall, proxy server, or content filtering software that could prevent access to resources that are used by your Renaissance web-based software. To be sure the software functions as designed, you should whitelist (add as allowed resources) the list of domains below within your firewall, proxy, or content filtering software. Be sure to allow inbound and outbound http and https communication.

If renaissance-go.com is part of your Renaissance site address, you must also allow WebSocket traffic in order for some areas of the software to function properly, including Star CBM and generating PDFs from reports.

Note: Some firewall, proxy, or content filter vendors use different syntax for wildcard domains. If you are having difficulties whitelisting the domains, please contact your vendor for assistance.
