AWS Outpost Rack Network Requirements Clarification - "Outpost Region's public routes"

1

We are considering deploying an AWS outpost rack at one of our sites in the western United States. I know the ports that I need to have opened on our firewalls, but I need clarification regarding the AWS regional IP ranges for our firewall policies.

The Outpost connectivity guide just states "Outpost Region's public routes" - from the AWS IP Address JSON database, which "Service" would this be? There are 19 possible services for the region:

"amazon, route53_resolver, api_gateway, cloud9, ec2_instance_connect, codebuild, amazon_connect, cloudfront, ebs, s3, amazon_appflow, workspaces_gateways, kinesis_video_streams, route53_healthchecks, ec2, globalaccelerator, route53_healthchecks_publishing, dynamodb, chime_voiceconnector."*

Our cyber security team is already cringing at the ports that have to be allowed, so the fewer remote IP address ranges I specify, the more likely we are to not end up with a half million dollar paperweight due to security restrictions!

It would be the EC2 Public IP range(s)

The link below also shows how to filter the JSON file to get the latest list for a specific region:
