Explains that Vultr automatically assigns IP addresses from their pool when creating instances, without option for manual selection.
No, you cannot assign a specific IP address when creating a Vultr Compute instance. IP addresses are automatically allocated from Vultr's available IP pool during instance creation. Once an instance is destroyed, its associated IP address is released back into the regional pool and cannot be recovered.
To retain control over your IP addresses, you can use Reserved IPs. These are static public IP addresses that can be attached to and detached from instances within the same region. You also have the option to convert an instance's existing IP address into a Reserved IP, ensuring you keep the same IP even after the instance is deleted.
