Unknown request to crossdomain.xml

My company is trying to move the app to the cloud.
People from outside of our office did all the work and now are trying to
rub it.
It seems like no data is flowing into the application. I am checking
chrome's console
and among other errors see this:
GET http://13.66.128.172/crossdomain.xml 504 (Gateway Timeout)
I have checked that IP and it belongs to MSFT. Does anyone have an idea why
the FP is trying reading it from there?

Thanks

Jeff is correct, but to add one additional note:  IIRC, the check for "same host" is done by comparing the URLs, not by the underlying IP address, so even if your app launches from www.mscloud.com and it maps to 13.66.128.172 and your app is configured to hit 13.66.128.172, it will be seen as a different domain and crossdomain.xml will be accessed.

HTH,

    Yes, that's part of the security mechanism used by the player to control where a SWF can request data from.  It comes into play if the SWF needs to issue requests to a host other than the one it was loaded from.  In that scenario, it has to sit in the root directory of the server hosting the resource being requested, and must be configured to allow access from the host that the SWF was loaded from.

    Good guess, it's running on MS cloud.
    But, in general, does FP always look for the crossdomain file?

Good guess, it's running on MS cloud.
But, in general, does FP always look for the crossdomain file?

Maybe the app was moved to MSFT's cloud infrastructure?

My company is trying to move the app to the cloud.
People from outside of our office did all the work and now are trying to
rub it.
It seems like no data is flowing into the application. I am checking
chrome's console
and among other errors see this:
GET http://13.66.128.172/crossdomain.xml 504 (Gateway Timeout)
I have checked that IP and it belongs to MSFT. Does anyone have an idea why
the FP is trying reading it from there?

Thanks
