Obtain public IP addresses in public cloud

The provider may charge for public IP addresses as soon as you reserve them for your virtual datacenter. Therefore you should reserve your IP addresses just before you deploy and check they are deleted when you undeploy your VMs. Remember that your provider may also limit the number of public IP addresses that you can use per virtual datacenter. |
To add public IP addresses to your virtual datacenter, so that you can later assign them to your VMs:
