If you have a look at how https://www.centos.org/download/mirrors/ is
generated, you will notice that it will fetch the data from
https://www.centos.org/download/full-mirrorlist.csv
But I'm not sure if that's a good approach, because that list may change
every now and then. If I were you, I would set up a local mirror using
rsync from some external mirror, and point the local machines using
CentOS to that mirror. That would save bandwidth, and save you from
maintaining that ACL (even if it's automated).
