AWS iot documentation change
Summary
Added Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) as a supported solver for Amazon Sidewalk devices and updated IP address solver support to 'Any IoT device that connects over TCP/IP'. Updated API reference URL version.
Security assessment
The changes introduce new supported device types (BLE for Sidewalk) and broaden IP address solver applicability. No security vulnerabilities, mitigations, or explicit security features are mentioned. The URL update is routine documentation maintenance.
