Which ip addresses does apple use for testing iPhone applications? [closed]

Question

I'm looking at an application that is submitted for acceptance into the iOS App Store. The application contains components that pull data from private servers.

It would be useful to know which ip addresses Apple will likely use when testing the application - ie., which ip address range is likely to be the one running the test applications.

Does Apple use a predictable set/range of addresses when testing iphone applications, and, if they do, what is the range?

Answer 1

Both times that we submitted an app testing was performed from the 17.218.239 subnet.

Apple is assigned the 17.0.0.0/8 range

Knowing the IP address is very helpful for us as we use a third party system to authenticate (via oauth). The third party system uses a risk-based authentication system which looks at the IP address to asses "risk". If it's a new IP address then an access code is required (which is delivered via email). Getting this access code to the iOS tester is cumbersome. Knowing the IP address of the tester allows us to bypass this step and makes testing easier.
