Description: A group of IP addresses in cloud computing refers to a specific range of IP addresses that are available to be assigned to virtual machine instances within a cloud environment. These IP addresses are fundamental for the connectivity of instances, allowing them to communicate with each other and with the outside world. In a cloud environment, efficient management of IP addresses is crucial, as each instance requires a unique address to operate correctly. A cloud management platform enables administrators to define and manage these groups of IP addresses, facilitating dynamic assignment and reuse of unused IP addresses. This not only optimizes resource usage but also enhances the scalability and flexibility of the cloud infrastructure. Additionally, the ability to create IP address groups allows administrators to segment networks and apply specific security policies, which is essential for maintaining the integrity and security of data in a shared cloud environment.
