Does every Droplet have a different public IP

Posted on May 15, 2014

Sorry if this question is already posted, but when I tried to look for it I didn’t find it anywhere.

As the title says, is every Droplet assigned a different Public IP? If so, how is that being done? Do you guys have a giant range of public IPs? Or is there some underlying technology being used?

Thank you!

Yes. They’re given blocks of ip’s from ARIN, RIPE, or APNIC depending on the region.
