I have provisioned an Azure Virtual Machine with Windows Server 2008, but I now need a public static IP for it (for support purposes).

Is this something that exists by default or do I have to configure it?

  • Thanks, I just was not sure how up-to-date those answers are. – CShark Apr 14 '15 at 09:55
  • When you start-up a VM it gets assigned an IP address based on the host the VM is on. This can only change when the machine is stopped and dealocated, but it is possible and does happen. From what I can see it is £0.0025 per hour per IP (~£2/month per IP). – 0x0000001E Apr 14 '15 at 10:11

    This page has information on the costs: http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/ip-addresses/ and how to get them. – 0x0000001E Apr 14 '15 at 10:16

there is no direct process from azure management portal to set a static IP for service or VM, but you can do it from Azure-Powershell Here are some links
