Elastic IP Overview

What Is Elastic IP?

The Elastic IP (EIP) service enables your cloud resources to communicate with the Internet using static public IP addresses and scalable bandwidths. If a FlexusX instance has an EIP bound, it can access the Internet. If a FlexusX instance only has a private IP address, it cannot access the Internet. For details, see What Is Elastic IP?
