+## Network Requirements
+
+In online mode, Directus makes outbound HTTPS requests to `https://licensing.directus.com`. If your network restricts outbound traffic, allow the following endpoints:
+
+| Method | Endpoint | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `GET` | `/.well-known/jwks.json` | Token signature verification |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/preview` | License preview before activation |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/activate` | Initial license activation |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/refresh` | Periodic license revalidation |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/update` | Plan or addon changes |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/deactivate` | License deactivation |
+| `POST` | `/api/licenses/portal` | Opening the Stripe billing portal |
+| `GET` | `/api/licenses/addons/options` | Fetching available addon options |
+| `PATCH` | `/api/licenses/addons` | Purchasing or modifying addons |
+| `DELETE` | `/api/licenses/addons` | Removing addons |
+
+If outbound access to `https://licensing.directus.com` is not possible, use an [offline license token](#offline-mode) instead. Offline tokens are validated locally and require no outbound network access. Offline mode is only available on Enterprise plans.
