Obtain IP addresses from public networks

In public networks you can reserve or purchase public IP addresses for your VMs. Reserved IPs may be charged while they are reserved, even if they are not used in VMs. 

To add new public IP addresses to your virtual datacenter:

1. Click the + Add button on the Public IPs page to display the list of available public IPs
   
   1. To move between pages, use pagination controls such as arrows and page numbers
   2. To filter your search, enter an IP address or Network name in the Search filter box
2. Select IP addresses to add them to your virtual datacenter 
3. Click Add to reserve the IPs

The platform will add the IPs to your VDC

You can also reserve public IPs directly from the Edit VM dialog.
