Reserved IPs

Static IP allocation for Tasmanian Cloud resources

Coming Soon

Reserved IP features are currently under development. This page outlines our planned offerings.


Overview

We're working on allowing you to reserve static IP addresses for your resources. Reserved IPs ensure your instances maintain consistent addresses even after restarts or recreation.


Planned Features

IP Reservation

You'll be able to:

  • Reserve IPv4 addresses from your private network pool
  • Assign reserved IPs to VPS instances
  • Maintain persistent IP addresses across instance lifecycle

Use Cases

Use CaseDescription
Static workloadsApplications requiring fixed IP addresses
Whitelist managementSimplify firewall rules with known IPs
Database serversStable connections from application layers
Internal servicesDNS entries pointing to consistent addresses

Allocation Strategy

We're designing the system to allocate IPs from your VPC's address space:

graph TB
    subgraph "Your VPC"
        subgraph "Subnet: 10.0.40.0/22"
            R1[Reserved IP<br/>10.0.40.50]
            R2[Reserved IP<br/>10.0.40.51]
            D1[Dynamic IP<br/>10.0.40.100]
            D2[Dynamic IP<br/>10.0.40.101]
        end
    end

    R1 --> VPS1[Associated VPS]
    R2 --> VPS2[Associated VPS]
    D1 --> VPS3[Dynamic VPS]

What We're Solving

  • Predictability — Know your IP addresses ahead of time
  • Simplified networking — No need to update configurations after instance changes
  • Firewall stability — Maintain allowlists without constant updates
