AWS DocumentDB with Robo 3T (Robomongo)

问题:

I want to connect Robo 3T (formerly robomongo) from my Mac laptop with AWS's DocumentDB. I followed numerous tutorials however could not find any specific to DocumentDB.

During the testing phase it passes step #1 "connected to my EC2 instance", however fails on step #2 with the message "failed to connect to ...docdb.amazonaws.com:27017 via SSH tunnel". Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Steps to connect from Robo 3T

 1. Host : localhost and 28017: source port that we mentioned in ssh
    tunnel
 2. Authentication tab - Database : DBname; Username and password of
    the documentDb
 3. In SSL tab, click Use SSL protocol
 4. Click use CA certificate
 5. Import the CA certificate in .pem format. Download it from this link
    : https://s3.amazonaws.com/rds-downloads/rds-combined-ca-bundle.pem
 6. Click on Advanced options and keep Invalid hostnames : Allowed
 7. Give a name for the connection and hit connect button.
 8. Connection should be established by now.

I assume you use the below command for SSH tunnel.

ssh -i "ec2Access.pem" -L 28017:sample-cluster.cluster-cu52jq5kfddg.us-east-1.docdb.amazonaws.com:27017 [e-mail] -N 

Hope this will work.
