# Manage the IP addresses for your network interface You can manage the following IP addresses for your network interfaces: + Elastic IP addresses (one per private IPv4 address) + IPv4 addresses + IPv6 addresses ------ #### [ Console ] **To manage the IP addresses of a network interface** 1. Open the Amazon EC2 console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/). 1. In the navigation pane, choose **Network Interfaces**. 1. Select the checkbox for the network interface. 1. To manage the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, do the following: 1. Choose **Actions**, **Manage IP addresses**. 1. Expand the network interface. 1. For **IPv4 addresses**, edit the IP addresses as needed. To assign an additional IPv4 address, choose **Assign new IP address** and then specify an IPv4 address from the subnet range or let AWS choose one for you. 1. (Dual stack or IPv6 only) For **IPv6 addresses**, edit the IP addresses as needed. To assign an additional IPv6 address, choose **Assign new IP address** and then specify an IPv6 address from the subnet range or let AWS choose one for you. 1. To assign or unassign a public IPv4 address to a network interface, choose **Auto-assign public IP**. You can enable or disable this for any network interface, but it only affects the primary network interface. 1. (Dual stack or IPv6-only) For **Assign primary IPv6 IP**, choose **Enable** to assign a primary IPv6 address. The first GUA associated with the network interface is chosen as the primary IPv6 address. After you assign a primary IPv6 address, you can't change it. This address is the primary IPv6 address until the instance is terminated or the network interface is detached. 1. Choose **Save**. 1. To associate an Elastic IP address, do the following: 1. Choose **Actions**, **Associate address**. 1. For **Elastic IP address**, select the Elastic IP address. 1. For **Private IPv4 address**, select the private IPv4 address to associate with the Elastic IP address. 1. (Optional) Choose **Allow the Elastic IP address to be reassociated** if the network interface is currently associated with another instance or network interface. 1. Choose **Associate**. 1. To disassociate an Elastic IP address, do the following: 1. Choose **Actions**, **Disassociate address**. 1. For **Public IP address**, select the Elastic IP address. 1. Choose **Disassociate**. ------ #### [ AWS CLI ] **To manage the IPv4 addresses** Use the following [assign-private-ip-addresses](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/assign-private-ip-addresses.html) command to assign an IPv4 address. ``` aws ec2 assign-private-ip-addresses \ --network-interface-id eni-1234567890abcdef0 \ --private-ip-addresses 10.0.0.82 ``` Use the following [unassign-private-ip-addresses](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/unassign-private-ip-addresses.html) command to unassign an IPv4 address. ``` aws ec2 unassign-private-ip-addresses \ --network-interface-id eni-1234567890abcdef0 \ --private-ip-addresses 10.0.0.82 ``` **To manage the IPv6 addresses** Use the following [assign-ipv6-addresses](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/assign-ipv6-addresses.html) command to assign an IPv6 address. ``` aws ec2 assign-ipv6-addresses \ --network-interface-id eni-1234567890abcdef0 \ --ipv6-addresses 2001:db8:1234:1a00:9691:9503:25ad:1761 ``` Use the following [unassign-ipv6-addresses](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/unassign-ipv6-addresses.html) command to unassign an IPv6 address. ``` aws ec2 unassign-ipv6-addresses \ --network-interface-id eni-1234567890abcdef0 \ --ipv6-addresses 2001:db8:1234:1a00:9691:9503:25ad:1761 ``` **To manage the Elastic IP address for the primary private IPv4 address** Use the following [associate-address](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/associate-address.html) command to associate an Elastic IP address with the primary private IPv4 address. ``` aws ec2 associate-address \ --allocation-id eipalloc-0b263919b6EXAMPLE \ --network-interface-id eni-1234567890abcdef0 ``` Use the following [disassociate-address](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ec2/disassociate-address.html) command to disassociate an Elastic IP address from the primary private IPv4 address. ``` aws ec2 disassociate-address --association-id eipassoc-2bebb745a1EXAMPLE ``` ------ #### [ PowerShell ] **To manage the IPv4 addresses** Use the [Register-EC2PrivateIpAddress](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Register-EC2PrivateIpAddress.html) cmdlet to assign an IPv4 address. ``` Register-EC2PrivateIpAddress ` -NetworkInterfaceId eni-1234567890abcdef0 ` -PrivateIpAddress 10.0.0.82 ``` Use the [Unregister-EC2PrivateIpAddress](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Unregister-EC2PrivateIpAddress.html) cmdlet to unassign an IPv4 address. ``` Unregister-EC2PrivateIpAddress ` -NetworkInterfaceId eni-1234567890abcdef0 ` -PrivateIpAddress 10.0.0.82 ``` **To manage the IPv6 addresses** Use the [Register-EC2Ipv6AddressList](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Register-EC2Ipv6AddressList.html) cmdlet to assign an IPv6 address. ``` Register-EC2Ipv6AddressList ` -NetworkInterfaceId eni-1234567890abcdef0 ` -Ipv6Address 2001:db8:1234:1a00:9691:9503:25ad:1761 ``` Use the [Unregister-EC2Ipv6AddressList](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Unregister-EC2Ipv6AddressList.html) cmdlet to unassign an IPv6 address. ``` Unregister-EC2Ipv6AddressList ` -NetworkInterfaceId eni-1234567890abcdef0 ` -Ipv6Address 2001:db8:1234:1a00:9691:9503:25ad:1761 ``` **To manage the Elastic IP address for the primary private IPv4 address** Use the [Register-EC2Address](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Register-EC2Address.html) cmdlet to associate an Elastic IP address with the primary private IPv4 address. ``` Register-EC2Address ` -NetworkInterfaceId eni-1234567890abcdef0 ` -AllocationId eipalloc-0b263919b6EXAMPLE ``` Use the [Unregister-EC2Address](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/latest/reference/items/Unregister-EC2Address.html) cmdlet to disassociate an Elastic IP address from the primary private IPv4 address. ``` Unregister-EC2Address -AssociationId eipassoc-2bebb745a1EXAMPLE ``` ------
