Public IP Management (np node attach-ip / detach-ip)

Compute nodes receive an isolated private IPv4 address on their VPC network upon provisioning. Routable public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are dynamic add-ons that can be attached and detached at any time.

Syntax

# Attach public IP
np node attach-ip <node_id> [options]
# or inverted syntax
np node <node_id> attach-ip [options]

# Detach public IP
np node detach-ip <node_id> [options]
# or inverted syntax
np node <node_id> detach-ip [options]

Attach Public IP (`np node attach-ip`)

Attaches a public IP address to a compute node. The CLI automatically detects whether the target is IPv4 or IPv6 based on the --ip argument.

Options

Option	Description	Default
`--ip`	Public IP address to attach, or `"auto"` (IPv4) / `"auto-ipv6"` (IPv6)	`"auto"`

Examples

# Automatically allocate and attach the next available public IPv4
np node attach-ip dev-server

# Automatically allocate and attach a routable public IPv6 prefix
np node attach-ip dev-server --ip auto-ipv6

# Attach a specific reserved public IP address (IPv4 or IPv6)
np node attach-ip dev-server --ip 184.105.163.137
np node attach-ip dev-server --ip 2001:470::1

# Supports node-ID-first syntax
np node dev-server attach-ip

Detach Public IP (`np node detach-ip`)

Detaches a public IP address from a compute node, reverting ingress to private VPC networking.

Options

Option	Short	Description	Default
`--ip`		Specific public IP address to detach (auto-detected if omitted)	None
`--ipv6`	`-6`	Detach public IPv6 address	`false`

Examples

# Automatically detaches the active public IP
np node detach-ip dev-server

# Detach public IPv6 address
np node detach-ip dev-server --ipv6

# Detach a specific address when multiple IPs are assigned
np node detach-ip dev-server --ip 184.105.163.137

# Supports node-ID-first syntax
np node dev-server detach-ip
