 In order to easily handle certificate rotation chariotd is designed around the concept of certificate stores rather than single certificate. A certificate store is simply a base directory containing an `endpoint.txt` file listing the AWS IoT endpoint the certificates apply to, and a number of sub directories with each containing a certificate and associated private key.
 
+The `endpoint.txt` may contain either just the hostname of the IoT endpoint,
+or hostname and port number in the form of `hostname:port`. The latter can
+be used to switch from the standard MQTTS port (8883) to the HTTPS port (443).
+This can be necessary when located behind a restrictive firewall which does
+not permit outbound MQTTS traffic, but does allow HTTPS. Internally, the
+ALPN TLS option is automatically set to `x-amzn-mqtt-ca` whenever port
+443 is specified.
