Resolution

You may quickly get the static IP address of a Papertrail log destination host assigned to your account using command-line tools like "nslookup". On your terminal run:
nslookup logsN.papertrailapp.com
 or 
nslookup logs.papertrailapp.com
Whichever is applicable with the assigned log destination(s) in your account. The result will usually give you more than one public IP address (usually four), you may use any of them.

In some cases, if you need the whole IP block to get whitelisted on your firewall/security settings, the current IP block of our log destinations is:
169.46.82.160/27

Optionally, you may subscribe to our mailing list here that we use to send updates when there are any changes with the log destinations.
