Question

If I upgrade my plan, will I need to update IP address?

I have a droplet basic plan ($5 mo) working OK with domain and now, I need to upgrade because I need more CPU & RAM.

My question is, Will I need to update IP Address on control panel? Or the public IP will not change when I upgrade?

Thanks on advance.

Hello @alexRicoy ,

We understand you are trying to resize your Droplet. Please note that IP address is retained when the Droplet plan is upgraded. In general, it is a good practice to take a Snapshot of the Droplet before resizing it. Refer to our documentation for more information on Droplet resize. https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/droplets/how-to/resize/

Hope this helps!

Cheers, Lalitha
