When you attach a resource to a Private Network, you can either specify a [reserved IP address](/ipam/how-to/reserve-ip/) to use for the attachment, or let the Private Network's [DHCP](/vpc/concepts/#dhcp) assign it a private [IPv4](#ipv4) address from the Private Network's [CIDR](/vpc/concepts/#cidr-block) block. In both cases, the resource's private IP address will not change unless you detach the resource from the Private Network, or delete the resource. [IPv6](#ipv6) addresses can also be assigned for IPv6-compatible resources.

Four IP addresses from each CIDR block are unavailable for reservation/use: the first two and last two in the block. For example, for the subnet `172.16.12.0/22` the following addresses cannot be reserved or assigned to any resource: `172.16.12.0`, `172.16.12.1`, `172.16.15.254` and `172.16.15.256`.

4. Define whether you want to specify the IP address to reserve, or reserve any available IP on the Private Network (the IP selected will be displayed after reservation). If specifying the IP address yourself, do **not** include the network prefix (e.g. `/22`).

5. Define whether you want to attach a MAC address to the reserved IP. **Only do this for custom resources** e.g. virtual machines hosted on a Proxmox cluster on an Elastic Metal server.

The IP address is reserved, and you are returned to the list of your private IP addresses, where the reserved address now displays. You can use this address to attach a resource to the Private Network you reserved it from. If and when you no longer need the reserved IP, you can [release](/ipam/how-to/reserve-ip/#how-to-release-a-reserved-private-ip-address) it.
