Network Requirements
Ports
There are two ports that must be open – both inbound and outbound – for the Ambie Player to work correctly.
1) Port 1883 (TCP) 2) Port 8883 (TCP)
The 2 ports above are used by the device to connect to our IOT Server hosted by AWS.
If you want or need to limit the traffic on the ports the hostname is:
a117f4qbnqd0g2.iot.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
To deliver the songs to the devices, Ambie uses a CDN. Below are the host names that the device needs to be able to be reached (HTTPS Traffic, Port 443):
1) Main CDN (if you cannot whitelist the host address please contact us)
cdn.ambie.fm, cdn1.ambie.fm, cdn17.ambie.fm, cdn7.ambie.fm
2) Backup CDN (if you cannot whitelist the host address please contact us)
d2694dhmpmq73n.cloudfront.net, d2b40hndrx5y4r.cloudfront.net, d22zgf5whdumc8.cloudfront.net, d1jixwkdwn00iq.cloudfront.net
In addition to the ports specified at the top of this page, traffic must be permitted both to the following URLs:
1) logs4.papertrailapp.com:48752 [UDP]
The Remote Logging System we use to remotely monitor the status of each Ambie Player.
2) remote.ambie.fm –
The URL to access the Ambie Remote interface.
3) dashboard.ambie.fm
The URL to access the Ambie Dashboard interface.
4) https://kruo3njzbf.execute-api.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com (Port 443)
The API Gateway i.e. How a command from an Ambie Interface is sent to the Ambie Player.
5) streaming.ambie.fm (Port 80 & Port 443)
The backup streaming server the Ambie Player downloads music from, in the unlikely event that the CDN fails.
