New Release Candidate Available popup?

Has anyone else received these popups within the product since installing 2022.4.x? We do not have internet access on any of our servers, so this has to be making a call home from a workstation that is accessing the site. Waiting to hear back from support on this, but what else is this "phoning home" with now and how do we disable it?

Hi @msites,
I'm assuming that you're seeing these in the Orion website under Settings > My Deployment > Updates. You may want to make sure that your MPE (and and Additional Web Servers that you may have) do not have a proxy configured, and that you also don't have a proxy configured within the application settings: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-configure-proxy-settings.htm

I thought that my servers were blocked from the internet as well, but received the notification you posted. Checked proxy settings and found that the proxy was configured. Disabled the proxy and tried again and the notification went away (tried with a different Orion account as well just in case it's only shown once per account).

Thanks. Our users saw them as soon as they signed in. We have not had internet access since the 2020 issue and I have verified they do not have access nor would we use a proxy. We also use a virtual firewall program that logs all traffic and it's not coming from any server.

Just went down a rabbit hole. I'm 99% sure this is making a call from the end-user side based on following the path.
