Failover IP addresses allow you to have several IP addresses with your server. This allows you to assign IP addresses to different websites or to virtual machines.
Failover IP addresses allow you to assign multiple IP addresses to your server. This enables you to allocate different IPs to websites, virtual machines, or services.

Your failover IP can be routed at any time to your servers in just a few minutes by using our Account Management console or through our API. By switching your failover IP addresses from one server to another, the hosted services remain available without reconfiguring the IP address.
Your failover IP can be routed at any time to your servers within a few minutes using the Scaleway Account Management console or API. By transferring failover IP addresses between servers, hosted services remain available without requiring IP reconfiguration.

You can add a failover IP address(es) for each server according to the offer and your service level.
You can add failover IP addresses to each server based on your offer and service level.
