Unfortunately I can not go into anymore detail on this.

Hi MJD093, can you please give some more details of how you did this? What application did you run to forward the TCP packets? Thanks

I used an EC2 instance with a static IP address to send data to AWS. So I just gave them the static IP for whitelisting.

They told me last week that they have opened it up to URLs.... seemingly?

I'll let you know how it goes.

As a mater of interest what fixed IP address worked for you and are they still working?

I doubt that, if you are on the same trial contract that I am on with Vodafone. I had to get creative to get around the whitelisting of 2 IP addresses only.

Thanks for that, its some URL!

I presume Vodafone can open up their firewalls for amazonaws.com and it will allow this through!

Probably this from the aws_fota sample:

config MQTT_BROKER_HOSTNAME
	string "AWS IoT MQTT broker hostname"
	default "a2n7tk1kp18wix-ats.iot.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"
	help
	  Default is set to be the NRF Cloud MQTT broker

Also found deep inside the nrf_cloud sub-system

I know it's dynamic, what I need to know is the URL not an IP address.

If I'm not mistaken. The Asset Tracker uses AWS IoT Core via MQTT, this uses a dynamic range of IP addresses and has no one specific IP address.
