Feature request: Bulk whitelist Amazon IPs
I'm not sure if this is doable or not but a common problem I have is a lot of my devices are constantly uploading data to services that reside on Amazon servers. One big culprit is my various security cameras throughout the house. They are constantly uploading data to amazon owned IP's -- where the camera vendors store the recorded clips etc. I believe Amazon publicly publishes a list of all their IP's. Would it be possible to have an option of some kind to whitelist all of Amazon IPs so we don't constantly get alarms for devices that upload to Amazon services? I have been trying to approve the IPs as they come across but they seem to be a never ending onslaught of IPs. I don't want to simply turn off monitoring to silence the alarms for these security cams/devices as I do want to know if anyone outside the norm is accessing them, however the constant abnormal upload alarms is a bit much. Am I looking at this problem the wrong way? I can't be the only one with the same issue? Thoughts?
Love the Firewalla BTW (Blue backer! cant wait)! Keep up the good work!

@wade, thanks. Let me @melvin is working on another feature which make this lesser annoying. Will see if a manual white list is possible.
The issues with all aws site is, aws can also host malware (because bad people also can rent the service from amazon). We are trying to make something smarter.
