Own IP Ranges

If you already have your own IP addresses, you can relocate them to cloudscale and use them in combination with our services.

Many companies already use their own IP addresses, which have been assigned to them in the form of "Provider Independent Space" (PI Space) or in their role as "Local Internet Registry" (LIR).

cloudscale can handle the BGP announcement of your IP addresses – both IPv4 (starting at /24) and IPv6 – for you.

You can then use subnets from this range or individual IP addresses as "Floating Networks/IPs" for your services at cloudscale. (Currently, only individual IPs are supported for assignment to load balancers.)

Setting up your own IP addresses is currently not available via self-service. If you are interested, please contact our support.
