Learn how to link a block of public IP addresses delivered with your Public VCF as-a-Service organization and its vRack.
When you order a new Public VCF as-a-Service organization, a vRack and a block of public IP addresses are delivered to you. This IP block is not directly linked to your vRack. You will need to link it manually.

- Being the technical administrator of the managed VMware vSphere on OVHcloud infrastructure
OVHcloud Control Panel Access
- Direct link: Public VCF as-a-Service

Instructions
Retrieve the vRack ID
From your VCF as-a-Service organization, select the Virtual Datacenters tab. Locate the vRack associated with your organization; it will appear with an ID in the format pn-xxxxxxx.
Click the name of your vRack.
Add the IP block to the vRack
Select the vRack that you just identified.
Select the IP block to link to your vRack/organization and click Add.
The public IP block is now linked to your vRack.
To make these addresses usable inside your Public VCF as-a-Service environment, you also need to declare the public gateway in VMware Cloud Director (VCD).
Follow the guide Public VCF as-a-Service - Declare the public IP gateway in VCD to complete this step.
