+  * IP addresses for the esupport.ibm.com server are changed from the 2023 version of the esupport.ibm.com server.
+  * Add firewall rules for all new IP addresses. However, do not change or remove the existing firewall rules.

+If Suma cannot identify proper entitlement for the server, then you need to go to the ESS website, login and go to "My Entitled Software" to download the required software from the website.
+If you cannot see the required product, you may need to register using the "Register IBM Customer Number" option.
+Else report this directly to the FixCentral/SUMA entitlement team via the FixCentral website using the blue "Contact and feedback" button at the right side of the screen.
+The country code suma must be register for the machine serial where suma is hosted !

 ===== Errors =====
-==== Java ====
+==== Proxy troubles ====
+SUMA was integrated with IBM Cloud Service since **AIX 7.3 TL2**, it's changed to use the FRAMEWORK CHCC ( Call-Home Connect Cloud )
+Suma using CHCC doesn't support use of proxy server.It was solved by setting the framework to ECC as mentioned earlier as below :
+<cli>
+# suma -c -a FRAMEWORK=ECC
+</cli>
+==== Java in suma ====
 By default SUMA requires Java7, so change the version to Java8
