Explanation
To ensure Apple devices can access APNs and other Apple services (e.g., App Store, iCloud), network configurations must allow outbound traffic to Apple's network, specifically the 17.0.0.0/8 IP block on TCP port 5223 (with 443 as a fallback). This requires adjusting firewalls or web proxies to permit this traffic, as many organizational networks restrict outbound connections.
