Based on office hours today, we went ahead and filed a SNOW ticket with PPMS to work out if we can get a contact to talk to about their firewall:

INC33413564 - https://yourit.va.gov/va?id=ticket&is_new_order=true&table=incident&sys_id=6ece51d687a60e54e3ff84450cbb356c

I requested to have @eselkin added as cc, but SNOW tix are weird so who knows if that will happen / work.

Per SNOW ticket, we heard that we will need to contact the VAEC group and submit a ticket through them. They handle outside access through the firewall. The network POC is vhaporoitiocoointaketriage@va.gov.
