Should I use my VM's IP or Address? |
4 |
Koding gives you access to your VMs IP, as well as an Address that always points to that VM's IP, so which should you use, and why?
While your VMs IP will operate perfectly fine, the IP is dynamic. In other words, it will change. Because of this, Koding gives you a VM Address, which will always point to your VM, regardless of IP changes, so this is what you usually want to use.
type:tip IP addresses of "Always On" VMs don't change even after the VM reboots.
