Managing EIP Tags

Scenarios

You can add tags to EIPs to help identify and manage them more easily. You can add a tag to an EIP when assigning the EIP. Alternatively, you can add a tag to an assigned EIP on the EIP details page. A maximum of 20 tags can be added to each EIP.

If your organization has created a tag policy for EIP, you need to add tags for EIP based on the tag policy. If a tag does not comply with the tagging rules, the EIP may fail to be created or the tag may fail to be added. Contact the organization administrator to learn more about the tag policy.

A tag consists of a key and value pair. Table 1 lists the tag key and value requirements.
