What ports need to be open to activate an iPad on IOS9?

Looking to update around 600 iPads in a school with an extremely closed and locked down network.


Does anybody know the specific ports that need to be open to allow configurator to update these devices to iOS9?


For configurator to reach apple - then for the iPads to reach apple on the activate/set up page!


Pretty sure I'll need to open them in the firewall.


Cheers,

iPad Mini, iOS 9, updating
