Firefox update servers domain name or IP range?

We have a firewall in the office that blocks all internet access, I can open it up to whitelist certain IP blocks or domain names.

I need to find out either the IP range or domain name(s) of the firefox update servers.

(so users with firefox installed will be able to automatically have their updates applied)

I've googled every search term I can think of but haven't found a solution.

Running an in house firefox update server is overkill for this small office and it's also a windows only shop.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Try using mozilla.com and, maybe, mozilla.org

Using specific IP blocks is impossible as Mozilla uses servers around the globe to spread the load.
