The Microsoft Defender for Endpoint service might require the use of proxy configurations to report diagnostic data and communicate data to the service. Prior to the availability of the streamlined connectivity method, other URLs were required and Defender for Endpoint static IP ranges weren't supported. For more information on preparing your environment, see [STEP 1: Configure your network environment to ensure connectivity with Defender for Endpoint service](configure-environment.md).

The Defender for Endpoint client might require the use of proxied connections to relevant cloud services. This article describes the streamlined device connectivity method, the prerequisites and provides additional information for verifying connectivity using the new destination(s).

This article describes the streamlined device connectivity method and how to onboard new devices to use a simpler deployment and management of Defender for Endpoint cloud connectivity services. For more information on migrating previously onboarded devices, see [Migrating devices to streamlined connectivity](migrate-devices-streamlined.md).

To simplify network configuration and management, you now have the option of onboarding new devices to Defender for Endpoint using a reduced URL set or static IP ranges.

To support network devices without hostname resolution or wildcard support, you can alternatively configure connectivity using dedicated Defender for Endpoint static IP ranges. For more information, see [Configure connectivity using static IP ranges](#option-2-configure-connectivity-using-static-ip-ranges).

> - The streamlined connectivity method will **not change how Microsoft Defender for Endpoint functions on a device nor will it change the end-user experience**. Only the URLs or IPs that a device uses to connect to the service will change.
4848
> - There currently is no plan to deprecate the old, consolidated service URLs. Devices onboarded with "standard" connectivity will continue to function. It is important to ensure connectivity to `*.endpoint.security.microsoft.com` is and remains possible, as future services will require it. This new URL is included in all required URL lists.

## Consolidated services
51-
52-
The following Defender for Endpoint URLs consolidated under the simplified domain should no longer be required for connectivity if `*.endpoint.security.microsoft.com` is allowed and devices are onboarded using the streamlined onboarding package. You need to maintain connectivity with other required services not consolidated that are relevant to your organization (for example, CRL, SmartScreen/Network Protection, and Windows Update).

For the updated list of required URLs, see [STEP 1: Configure your network environment to ensure connectivity with Defender for Endpoint service](configure-environment.md).

> [!IMPORTANT]

> If you are configuring using IP ranges, you will need to separately configure the EDR cyberdata service. This service is not consolidated on an IP level.
