Buying an Additional IP (Public Cloud)

Learn how to obtain an Additional IP for an OVHcloud Public Cloud project.

You may need to configure an Additional IP address on your instances for different reasons. For example, you may be:

• Hosting several websites on your instance.
• Hosting international projects.

To meet these needs, you can order an Additional IP address for your Public Cloud instances.

These Additional IP addresses can only be migrated to instances in the same project.

Requirements

• access to the OVHcloud Control Panel
• a Public Cloud instance in your Public Cloud project

Instructions

From the OVHcloud Control Panel:

1. Open your Public Cloud project.
2. In the left-hand menu, open Public IPs under the Network heading.
3. Open the Additional IP tab.
4. Click on the Actions button and select Add a new IP.

There are three steps to the ordering process:

1. Select Additional IP and click Next.
2. Select United States of America and click Next.
3. Select your instance from the drop-down menu, then click on Generate purchase order.

The purchase order will open automatically for you to complete your purchase.

See our guide on managing OVHcloud orders for more details.

You can also find the purchase order in your Control Panel, by going to the My account section and clicking on My orders.

The next step will be the IP configuration in your OS; please refer to our guide.
