Elasitc IP on cloud providers #884

Open Majdesber opened 6 years ago

Majdesber commented 6 years ago

Hi Guys,

first, many thanks for the amazing work you do here. I have tried to install Algo on many cloud providers and it is working perfectly fine.

is there any change to have an Elastic IP on Lightsail? because whenever i switch off the server and bring it back, the public IP is changed and that means the server is not accessible anymore.

another question: if the public IP is change, anyway to make VPN work again?

Regards, ME

workaround: I have added one minute sleep after crating the instance, then added a static IP at Lightsail web console.

Elastic support would be a great way to support upgrades too...

I think this might be related not only to Lightsail but and to other providers. At least GCE

@Majdesber There is no library/lightsail.py any more. Do you know where to put the sleep now?
