View public IP insights
You can use Public IP insights to see the following:
-
If your IPAM is integrated with accounts in an Amazon Organization, you can view all public IPv4 addresses used by services across all Amazon Regions for your entire Amazon Organization.
-
If your IPAM is integrated with a single account, you can view all public IPv4 addresses used by services across all Amazon Regions in your account.
A public IPv4 address is an IPv4 address that is routable from the internet. A public IPv4 address is necessary for a resource to be directly reachable from the internet over IPv4.
Note
Amazon charges for all public IPv4 addresses, including public IPv4 addresses
associated with running instances and Elastic IP addresses. For more information, see the Public IPv4 Address
tab on the Amazon VPC pricing page
You can view insights into the following public IPv4 address types:
Elastic IP addresses (EIPs): Static, public IPv4 addresses provided by Amazon that you can associate with an EC2 instance, elastic network interface, or Amazon resource.
EC2 public IPv4 addresses: Public IPv4 addresses assigned to an EC2 instance by Amazon (if the EC2 instance is launched into a default subnet or if the instance is launched into a subnet that’s been configured to automatically assign a public IPv4 address).
BYOIPv4 addresses: Public IPv4 addresses in the IPv4 address range that you’ve brought to Amazon using Bring your own IP addresses (BYOIP).
Service-managed IPv4 addresses: Public IPv4 addresses automatically provisioned on Amazon resources and managed by an Amazon service. For example, public IPv4 addresses on Amazon ECS, Amazon RDS, or Amazon WorkSpaces.
Public IP insights shows you all public IPv4 addresses used by services across Regions. You can use these insights to identify public IPv4 address usage and view recommendations to release unused Elastic IP addresses.

Important
Public IP insights was recently updated. If you see an error related to not having permissions to call GetIpamDiscoveredPublicAddresses, the managed permission attached to a resource discovery that was shared with you needs to be updated. Contact the person who created the resource discovery and ask them to update the managed permission AWSRAMPermissionIpamResourceDiscovery
to the default version. For more information, see Update a resource share in the Amazon RAM User Guide .
