Assign a Public IP to a Service

You can assign a public IP to a cloud service as well as transfer an already assigned IP to another service within the same region.

Assigning an Available IP to a Service

Copy link

You can assign a new public IP to any service created in the same region / availability zone.

• If the cloud server is configured to obtain an IP via DHCP (the default setting for our servers), you only need to assign the IP in the control panel.

• If you have manually changed these settings, you must add the IP inside the server using our static IP configuration guide.

To assign a public IP to a service:

1. Navigate to the Networks → Public IP section.

2. Hover over the row with the IP address. A plus icon will appear on the right.

3. Choose a service:

• If the service already exists, go to the Existing tab and select the service from the list.

• If the service does not yet exist, click New and select the service type. You will be redirected to the service creation form with the required IP and region pre-filled. Complete the service creation process, and the public IP will be automatically assigned.

Assigning a public IP to a private network will enable NAT.

Transferring a Public IP to Another Service

Public IPs can be transferred between services in the same region / availability zone.

To change an IP assignment:

1. First, unassign the IP from the current service:

   • Go to the Networks → Public IP section.

   • Hover over the IP and click the minus icon.

• • Confirm the action in the next window.

2. Reassign the IP to a new service:

   • Hover over the IP row again and click on the plus icon.

• • In the popup window, select the service from the list or click New to create a new service and immediately assign the IP.
