IP Address (CloudStack)

CMP bills public / network IPs from a single IP Address package per Cloud Provider Setup + Zone. Configuring prices is the same whether the IP is acquired at VM create, as a standalone IP, or on a Shared Network.

What differs is when that package price applies (and when it does not).

PageWhat it covers
Configure pricingCreate the IP Address rate-card package (one per setup + zone), billing modes, lifecycle, form fields
Shared Network IP BillingPer-network enable IP billing and IP Address Type — when CMP creates or cancels an IP subscription on CloudStack Shared Networks

Same pricing, different applicability​

  1. Create and price the IP Address package once for the setup + zone — see Configure pricing.
  2. Decide when that price is charged:
    • VM create / standalone IP — follows package rules and (deprecated) plan_ip_billing guidance on the pricing page
    • Shared network — only if Do you want to enable billing for IP addresses for this network? is Yes on that network — see Shared Network IP Billing

If shared-network IP billing is No, no IP subscription is created for that network even when an IP package exists and is priced.
