The IoT Static IP Endpoints Solution provides the capability to route all traffic through a set of static IP addresses to other AWS or Internet services.
Through the deployment of an OpenVPN server cluster, IoT devices in remote location can establish a VPN tunnel, reducing the configuration of firewalls and other security devices in those locations. This solution provides the ability to automate the creation and revocation of client certificates and configurations as needed.
This repository is the same code base used to generate the AWS CloudFormation templates and assets, and uses the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) to build and deploy the stack.
This solution collects anonymous operational metrics to help AWS improve the quality of features of the solution. For more information, including how to disable this capability, please see the implementation guide.
To get started with the IoT Static IP Endpoints Solution, please review the solution documentation. https://aws.amazon.com/answers/iot/iot-static-ip-endpoints/
This build process is based on using an AWS CloudShell environment to complete the build steps. Please adjust accordingly if using a different environment to deploy from source. When not using CloudShell you will need to have Docker and npm installed for the build to complete.

This solution uses the AWS CDK, however is also published as a synthesized Cloud Formation template which can be deployed without using the AWS CDK. For this reason we move all configuration and conditional logic into the resulting template using Cloud Formation conditions. This makes the resulting code slightly more awkward, however allows us to produce an easily consumable solution without requiring use of the AWS CDK.
