How to Attach Reserved IPs to a Vultr Cloud Compute Instance

1 min readUpdated 4 November 2026

Attach one or more reserved public IPs to a Vultr Cloud Compute instance for routing and IP forwarding.

Reserved IPs allow you to reserve a specific public IP address that you can assign to a Vultr Cloud Compute instance. You can attach multiple reserved IPs to a single instance to enable advanced networking capabilities such as routing and IP forwarding with distinct public IP addresses.

Follow this guide to attach reserved IPs to a Vultr Cloud Compute instance using the Vultr Console, API, CLI, or Terraform.

Note

You can only attach a reserved IP to an instance in the same location as the reserved IP.

Navigate to Network and click Reserved IPs.
Click your target reserved IP to open its management page.
Click the Attach to instance icon in the Attached Instance section to open the Attach Reserved IP to Instance panel.
Select your target Vultr Cloud Compute instance from the list.
Click Attach Reserved IP to attach the reserved IP to the instance.
