Description
All pages of the DB Console trying to connect to
https://register.cockroachdb.com/api/clusters/updates?uuid=b11...ed5&version=v22.2.7
but the CLUSTER SETTING diagnostics.reporting.enabled is false
So I expect no transfer of any data to cockroach.com, especially with an uuid of my installation.
Please describe the issue you observed, and any steps we can take to reproduce it:
Open DB Console of any Database. Open Browser Developer Tool. Look into network tab. See requests to register.cockroachdb.com
What did you do? Describe in your own words.
Open DB Console of any Database. Open Browser Developer Tool. Look into network tab. See requests to register.cockroachdb.com
If possible, provide steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Open DB Console of any Database.
2. Open Browser Developer Tool.
3. Look into network tab.
4. See requests to register.cockroachdb.com
**Expected behavior**
No connection tries to any other domain than the domain of my database installation.
**Additional data / screenshots**

If a node in your cluster encountered a fatal error, supply the contents of the
log directories (at minimum of the affected node(s), but preferably all nodes).
Note that log files can contain confidential information. Please continue
creating this issue, but contact support@cockroachlabs.com to submit the log
files in private.
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
**Environment:**
- CockroachDB version 22.2.7
- Server OS: ubuntu 22.04
- Client app Mozilla browser
**Additional context**
What was the impact?
Because the connects are forbidden by proxy configuration, many optical issues are seen on DB Console pages. As example: hover mouse effecs are flashing on and off every second, because the register connects are sent every second or so.
Add any other context about the problem here.
