# Reserved IPs API Reference

DigitalOcean Reserved IPs are publicly-accessible static IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Assign and reassign reserved IP addresses to Droplets as needed, or implement an automated failover mechanism with reserved IPs to build a high availability infrastructure.

The Reserved IPs API endpoints are organized into the following groups:

- [**Floating IPs**](floating-ips/) (4 endpoints): As of 16 June 2022, we have renamed the Floating IP product to Reserved IPs are publicly-accessible static IP addresses that can be mapped to one of your Droplets. They can be used to create highly available setups or other configurations requiring movable addresses.
- [**Floating IP Actions**](floating-ip-actions/) (3 endpoints): As of 16 June 2022, we have renamed the Floating IP product to \[Reserved IPs](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/reserved-ips/. The Reserved IP product’s endpoints function the exact same way as Floating IPs. The only difference is the name change throughout the URLs and fields. For example, the `floating_ips` field is now the `reserved_ips` field. The Floating IP endpoints will remain active until fall 2023 before being permanently deprecated.
- [**Reserved IPs**](reserved-ips/index.html.md) (4 endpoints): As of 16 June 2022, we have renamed the \[Floating IP](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/floating-ips/ product to Reserved IPs. The Reserved IP product’s endpoints function the exact same way as Floating IPs. The only difference is the name change throughout the URLs and fields. For example, the `floating_ips` field is now the `reserved_ips` field. The Floating IP endpoints will remain active until fall 2023 before being permanently deprecated.
- [**Reserved IP Actions**](reserved-ip-actions/index.html.md) (3 endpoints): As of 16 June 2022, we have renamed the \[Floating IP](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/floating-ips/ product to Reserved IPs. The Reserved IP product’s endpoints function the exact same way as Floating IPs. The only difference is the name change throughout the URLs and fields.

- [**BYOIP Prefixes**](byoip-prefixes/index.html.md) (6 endpoints): Bring your own IP (BYOIP) lets you provision your own IPv4 network prefixes to your account, then assign those IPs to your DigitalOcean resources. BYOIP supports the following features:

  - IPv4 addresses
  - Network sizes of anywhere from `/24` (256 addresses) to `/18` (16,384 addresses)
  - Same API and management interface as our existing reserved IPs feature
  - Assignable to Droplets only
