If you're using a firewall to secure your network and need to ensure uninterrupted access to Cloudsmith services or AWS CloudFront content, follow this guide to properly whitelist the necessary IP addresses.

1. Whitelisting IP Addresses for the Primary Region

For users who only need access to Cloudsmith services in the primary region, add the following IP addresses to your firewall whitelist:

34.252.163.216
52.208.86.0
108.129.59.129

This will allow uninterrupted access to Cloudsmith from its primary infrastructure.

2. Whitelisting IP Addresses for All Cloudsmith Regions

If you require access to Cloudsmith from multiple regions (recommended for global access), whitelist the following IP ranges:

34.252.163.216
52.208.86.0
108.129.59.129
18.224.75.239
18.216.17.80
3.135.162.154
35.163.82.210
52.24.213.62
54.203.138.156
3.104.99.235
52.62.115.207
13.55.231.43

By adding these IP addresses, you'll ensure global access across Cloudsmith’s infrastructure, maintaining seamless service availability regardless of geographic location.

Just so you know, these are AWS CloudFront IPs and are subject to change. We recommend periodically checking for updates to ensure your firewall configurations remain accurate.

3. Whitelisting AWS CloudFront Edge Servers for EDGE Caching

If your organization uses Cloudsmith’s EDGE caching functionality, which leverages AWS CloudFront, you will also need to whitelist the IP addresses used by AWS CloudFront’s edge servers.

Finding AWS CloudFront IP Ranges

To obtain the latest list of AWS CloudFront edge server IP addresses, refer to the official JSON file provided by AWS. This file contains up-to-date IP ranges and edge locations:

By ensuring these IP ranges are whitelisted, your firewall will allow access to content cached on AWS CloudFront edge servers.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you’ll secure uninterrupted access to Cloudsmith services while keeping your firewall’s security policies intact. If you require further assistance with firewall configurations or whitelisting IP ranges, feel free to reach out to our support team for help.
