<title>Manage IP addresses</title>
<para>Each instance can have a private, or <emphasis role="italic"
>fixed</emphasis>, IP address and an IP address, often
public, that is movable from instance to instance called a
<emphasis role="italic">floating</emphasis> IP
address.</para>
<para>Private IP addresses are used for communication between
instances and public ones are used for communication with the
outside world.</para>
<para>When you launch an instance, it is automatically assigned a
private IP address that stays the same until you explicitly
terminate the instance. Rebooting an instance has no effect on
its private IP address.</para>
<para>The cloud operator must configure a pool of floating IP
addresses. Then, you can allocate a certain number of floating
IP addresses from this pool to a project. A project quota
defines the maximum number of floating IP addresses for the
project.</para>
<para>You can add a floating IP address from this pool to an
instance in the project. You can dynamically associate
floating IP addresses with or disassociate floating IP
addresses from instances in the same project at any
time.</para>
<para>Before you can assign a floating IP address to an instance,
you must allocate floating IP addresses to a project. After
you allocate floating IP addresses to the current project, you
can assign them to running instances.</para>
<para>You can assign one floating IP address to only one instance
at a time. Use the <command>nova *floating-ip-*</command>
commands to manage floating IP addresses.</para>
<procedure>
<title>To manage floating IP addresses</title>
<step>
<para>To list the floating IP address pools:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-pool-list</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------+
| name |
+--------+
| public |
| test |
+--------+</computeroutput></screen>
<note>
<para>If this list is empty, the cloud operator must configure a pool of floating IP
addresses.</para>
</note>
</step>
<step>
<para>To allocate a floating IP address to the current
project:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-create</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+
| Ip | Instance Id | Fixed Ip | Pool |
+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+
| 172.24.4.226 | None | None | public |
+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>By default, the floating IP address is allocated
from the <literal>public</literal> pool. The command
shows the allocated IP address.</para>
<para>If more than one IP address pool is available, you
can specify the pool from which to allocate the
address:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-create <replaceable>POOL_NAME</replaceable></userinput></screen>
</step>
<step>
<para>To list floating IP addresses that are allocated to
the current project:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-list</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------------+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+
| Ip | Instance Id | Fixed Ip | Pool |
+--------------+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+
| 172.24.4.225 | 4a60ff6a-7a3c-49d7-9515-86ae501044c6 | 10.0.0.2 | public |
| 172.24.4.226 | None | None | public |
+--------------+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>For each floating IP address that is allocated to
the current project, the command shows the floating IP
address, the ID for the instance to which the floating
IP address is assigned, the associated fixed IP
address, and the pool from which the floating IP
address was allocated.</para>
</step>
<step>
<para>To associate a floating IP address with an instance,
first allocate that address to the current
project:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-create</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+
| Ip | Instance Id | Fixed Ip | Pool |
+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+
| 172.24.4.226 | None | None | public |
+--------------+-------------+----------+--------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>List instances to get the instance ID:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova list</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+--------------------------------+
| ID | Name | Status | Task State | Power State | Networks |
+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+--------------------------------+
| 4a60ff6a-7a3c-49d7-9515-86ae501044c6 | my-instance | ACTIVE | None | Running | private=10.0.0.2, 172.24.4.225 |
+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+--------------------------------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>Then, assign the floating IP address to the
instance, as follows:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova add-floating-ip my-instance 172.24.4.226</userinput></screen>
<para>Notice that the instance is now associated with two
floating IP addresses:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova list</userinput>
<computeroutput>+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+----------------------------------------------+
| ID | Name | Status | Task State | Power State | Networks |
+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+----------------------------------------------+
| 4a60ff6a-7a3c-49d7-9515-86ae501044c6 | my-instance | ACTIVE | None | Running | private=10.0.0.2, 172.24.4.225, 172.24.4.226 |
+--------------------------------------+-------------+--------+------------+-------------+----------------------------------------------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>To assign a fixed IP address to a floating IP
address that you assign to an instance, add the fixed
IP address as an optional parameter:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova add-floating-ip --fixed-address=<replaceable>FIXED_IP_ADDRESS</replaceable> <replaceable>INSTANCE_NAME_OR_ID</replaceable> <replaceable>FLOATING_IP_ADDRESS</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>After you assign the floating IP address and
configure security group rules for the instance, the
instance is publicly available at the floating IP
address.</para>
</step>
<step>
<para>To release a floating IP address from the current
project:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>nova floating-ip-delete <replaceable>FLOATING_IP_ADDRESS</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>The floating IP address is returned to the floating
IP address pool that is available to all projects. If
a floating IP address is assigned to a running
instance, it is automatically disassociated from that
instance.</para>
