Configuring ICE OS Server Addresses

Installation Guide > ICE OS Terminal Access > Configuring ICE OS Server Addresses

ICE Server supports the use of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for IP address assignment but does not support IP address change by lease renewal on the DHCP server, ICE OS on premise, or AWS / Azure.

The DHCP service should reserve the assigned IP address exclusively for the ICE OS VM. ICE Server will become inaccessible if the DHCP service assigns a different IP address at any time post-installation.

The ICE OS VM’s IP address should NOT be changed:

after a reboot

if the DHCP has expired on its own, and got auto-renewed

if the network administration forces a DHCP renewal
