Managing EIP Tags

Scenarios

Tags can be added to EIPs to facilitate EIP identification and administration. 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 10 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 creation may fail. Contact the organization administrator to learn details about the tag policy.

The Organizations service is in open beta test (OBT). To use organization rules, apply for OBT.

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