Photon -> Particle cloud port?

[ctmorrison]

Assuming we’re going to be moving to the Particle platform for our devices and considering we’re often installed at customer sites, I’m sure I’ll be asked what port the Photon uses to make its connection to the Particle cloud. Can someone point me to that documentation or simply provide an answer?

COaP on TCP port 5683.

What port does the Photon use to connect to the Particle Cloud?

Hi guys, I am trying to use my Photons at my school, but they are not working because they can not connect to the Particle cloud. I have spoken with the IT department, and they are willing to whitelist the Particle Cloud IP, and the port, so that I can use my Photons. What is the IP and port the Photon uses to connect to the Particle Cloud?
