Anchor IP
Last edited on 18 Dec 2024
An anchor IP is an IP address on a Droplet that reserved IPs can bind to.
Each newly created Droplet receives an anchor IP address. When you assign a reserved IP to a Droplet, the reserved IP maps traffic to the anchor IP instead of the Droplet’s public IP. The Droplet’s public internet traffic flows between the reserved IP address assigned to it and its dedicated anchor IP address.
