What happens when you allocate a ipv4 address?

@vasallius

the dedicated ip is not only for inbound traffic but also outbound right?

Only inbound, as I understand it; the gigantic shared-IPv4 announcement thread had the following exchange recently:

@matthewford

Can I confirm that the dedicated IPs can also be used for outbound allow listing? Or is it just for incoming traffic?

@moss

Unfortunately we don’t support static IPs for outbound traffic yet. It is something we’re working on though, we just can’t make any promises on when it’ll be ready. In the mean time you can use 3rd parties for this like Fixie
