Sometimes you can accidentally broke an instance and when you launch a new one to replace the old one, you want the new instance with the IP address that you had in the old instance. <\/p>\n

The steps are very simple, first you have to remove the port that is associated with the instance. You can identify it by its current IP address:<\/p>\n

\r\n$ sudo neutron port-list --fixed-ips ip_address=172.16.2.128\r\n+--------------------------------------+------+-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+\r\n| id                                   | name | mac_address       | fixed_ips                                                                           |\r\n+--------------------------------------+------+-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+\r\n| aa2e65ec-bf1c-44c7-b38b-0b27fcc41d8f |      | fa:16:3e:05:f2:fe | {"subnet_id": "6be599d7-702f-4e54-b18d-3dfca1441617", "ip_address": "172.16.2.128"} |\r\n+--------------------------------------+------+-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+\r\n<\/pre>\n
With the instance stopped remove the port:<\/p>\n
\r\n$sudo neutron port-delete aa2e65ec-bf1c-44c7-b38b-0b27fcc41d8f \r\nDeleted port: aa2e65ec-bf1c-44c7-b38b-0b27fcc41d8f\r\n<\/pre>\n
And now attach a new one with the desired IP address to your instance (c842228b-71e3-49d6-a5b5-33e6416e2669):<\/p>\n
\r\n$ sudo nova interface-attach --fixed-ip 172.16.2.106 --net-id 26f6d6f9-0ff6-4825-99e8-35c3821f855f  c842228b-71e3-49d6-a5b5-33e6416e2669\r\n<\/pre>\n
That’s all, now you can start your instance with the new Ip address.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
