Service Endpoints
While Soracom has never changed the IP addresses of its service endpoints, we can't guarantee that they won't change in the future. If you need to use IP addresses, ensure they remain configurable or refresh them periodically from DNS.
Soracom Air for Cellular
When connecting to a cellular network using a Soracom IoT SIM card, your device should be configured with the following APN settings:
| Item | Global | Japan | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plans | plan01s plan01s - LDV plan-NA1 plan-US plan-US-max plan-US-NA planP1 planX1 planX2 planX3 planX3-EU planNT1 |
plan-D plan-K plan-K2 plan-KM1 | plan-DU |
| APN | soracom.io |
soracom.io |
du.soracom.io |
| Username | sora |

sora |
| Password | sora |
sora |

| PDP Type | IP |

| Authentication Type | CHAP or PAP |

4G/LTE and newer devices are often able to automatically retrieve the soracom.io APN setting directly from the network. However, for 2G and 3G connections, the APN must be configured on the device in advance. In general, you should configure the APN setting whenever possible.
When a device uses a Soracom SIM to connect to a cellular network, Soracom will authenticate the device using credentials that are stored inside the SIM. In turn, the Username and Password settings can be treated as optional and omitted. However, these settings are provided in order to support devices that do not allow these settings to be omitted.
Ping Response Service
You can use the Ping Response Service to confirm that a device can reach the Soracom network. To do so, ping the endpoint:
| Item | Interface | Global | Japan | IP Address |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ping Response Service | Cellular or Arc | pong.soracom.io |
pong.soracom.io |
100.127.100.127 |
If a device cannot reach the Soracom Ping Response Service (pong.soracom.io), another device or server may respond as a proxy. Verify that the IP address shown in the first line of ping output (e.g., PING pong.soracom.io (100.127.100.127)) is within the 100.64.0.0/10 range (100.64.0.0 - 100.127.255.255).

DNS Server
When a device using an IoT SIM establishes a session, the IPv4 address and DNS server provided by the Soracom platform are automatically configured. Devices can use this DNS server for name resolution.
| Item | Interface | Global | Japan |
|---|---|---|---|
| DNS Server | Cellular or Arc | 100.127.0.53 or 100.127.1.53 |
100.127.0.53 or 100.127.1.53 |
The DNS server IP addresses 100.127.0.53 and 100.127.1.53 are part of the Soracom platform's internal address space (100.64.0.0/10 - Shared Address Space RFC6598). These addresses are automatically configured when a device establishes a cellular session and are accessible from both cellular and Arc interfaces.
NTP Server
Soracom provides an internal NTP server to allow devices that may not have internet access to keep accurate time.
| Item | Interface | Global | Japan |
|---|---|---|---|
| NTP Server | Cellular or Arc | ntp.soracom.io or 100.127.0.123 |
ntp.soracom.io or 100.127.0.123 |
The NTP server IP address 100.127.0.123 is part of the Soracom platform's internal address space (100.64.0.0/10 - Shared Address Space RFC6598). This address is accessible from both cellular and Arc interfaces.
The Soracom NTP server uses Leap Smearing to smooth out leap second adjustments, eliminating the need to worry about application errors caused by leap second additions.
