create-ec2-address.pl

Requests a new EC2 static IP address

Before a static address can be assigned to virtual systems running under EC2, it must be requested and associated with an EC2 account. When run this command will do just that, using the account specified by the --account flag. The address can then be assigned to systems with the associate-ec2-address.pl command.

Example usage

  cloudmin create-ec2-address --account 12345678
  Requesting EC2 static IP address for account 12345678 ..
  .. got address 1.2.3.4
