Joey,
This looks like something that would be handled by the IT Dept.  Let me know if you need me to do anything regarding this.
Thank you,

      *API Back-up Data Center Migration:  New IP Addresses
     API Merchants & Partners
     Live Site Status blog
     Late April

 

*Any merchant or partner using APIs will need to add the new IP addresses to their firewalls by the end of April in order to maintain communications with PayPal/Payflow APIs in the event we fail-over to Salt Lake City for processing.  If merchants do not update their firewalls with these new IP addresses and if PayPal has to migrate processing from Phoenix to Salt Lake City, merchants  will not be able to connect to the host and will not be able to process for the duration of PayPal running in back-up mode. These changes will impact the following products and features including but not limited to:

·         Website Payment Pro & Website Payment Pro Payflow

·         Express Checkout

·         Adaptive Payments

·         Mobile Checkout

·         Mass Pay via API (merchants uploading files via the website are not impacted)

·         PayPal Permissions Services

·         Preapproved Payments API

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
