Windows Update on computers behind sonicwall

Hi,

I want to know what the URL's for windows update that I need to enter in my
firewall since I have content filtering enabled on the firewall. I have
entering a list of windows update server names in my content filtering list.

Help is required very urgently.

Hi,

See if opening for TCP and UDP on ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) for the
following sites helps:

*.download.microsoft.com
*.windowsupdate.com
*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
windowsupdate.microsoft.com

What would be the IP address of these sites as my firewall do not have DNS.
Thank you
