    Hello Experts,

    I have a QRadar deployment that comprises of QRadar Console and AppHost. I have all apps running on Apphost, and I have a quick question. I want to know if the QRadar console needs to have internet connection for QRadar Assistant app to make connection to "api.xforce.ibmcloud.com", or both QRadar console and apphost need to have internet connection. This question also applies to other apps (running on apphost) that need to make API calls to outside servers.

    Regards,

    Hello, 

    Please refer to the following document:

    https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/qradar-troubleshooting-network-connectivity-applications-running-app-host-appliances

    If the appliaction is located on the app host then the connection will be made from the App Host. 

    Also refer to a previous community post:
