# Public IP

Available in VPC

Public IP describes the screen configuration of the **Public IP** menu and public IP information, and explains how to request for and manage the public IP. You can request public IPs and use for services or to access the created server.

              Caution

              

The requested public IP will occur fees even when not assigned to a server. If you are not using the public IP, terminate it and request again when needed.

              Note

              

- Public IPs can be created in proportion to the number of created servers.
- You can only connect a public IP to servers in a subnet where the Internet gateway is set.

    - **Transit VPC to connect**: select the transit VPC to which you want to delegate a public IP
  - In the [Set auto connection] tab, you can set to automatically delegate all the public IPs that will be created in the future to the transit VPC.
    - **Transit VPC**: select the transit VPC to delegate a public IP

5. After checking the setup information, click the **[OK]** button.
