Frequently asked questions
Yes. Floating IPs exist independently of any Virtual Machine. If you delete or replace a Instance, you can retain the IP and reassign it to a new instance without any DNS changes or downtime from your users' perspective.
A public IP is reachable from the internet and used for external traffic. A private IP is assigned within your internal network and used for communication between your Instances. Every instance gets a private IP by default; a public IP is assigned separately via Floating IP allocation.
Add an A record in your domain's DNS settings pointing to the Floating IP assigned to your Instance. DNS propagation typically takes a few minutes to a few hours depending on your DNS provider's TTL settings.
Yes. A Floating IP can be used purely as an outbound NAT source address without accepting any inbound connections. This is useful when you need a consistent egress IP for allowlisting with third-party APIs or services.
Yes. GCX Kcloud supports IPv6 addressing alongside IPv4. You can enable IPv6 on your instances to future-proof your infrastructure and serve users or services that prefer or require IPv6 connectivity.
The Floating IP remains allocated to your project and is not released automatically. You can reassign it to a standby Instance immediately, minimizing downtime. This is a key advantage of Floating IPs over ephemeral IPs tied to a single instance.
