Getting Information About Public IPs in a Region

You can get the list of public IPv4 addresses used in the Region of your account, in CIDR notation.

This can be useful, for example, if you need to filter OUTSCALE IP ranges from external providers, or for third-party applications that need to authorize the IP ranges of your OUTSCALE Cloud resources.

VMs and network interface cards (NICs) are automatically assigned a public IP when you create them. For more information, see Getting Information About Your VMs and Getting Information About Your NICs.

You can also allocate public IPs to your account, that is, public IPv4 addresses that you can associate with a VM or network interface and disassociate at any time. For more information, see About Public IPs.

A reference table is also available in the OUTSCALE Public IPs page.
