Usage

doctl compute droplet-action enable-private-networking <droplet-id> [flags]

Description

Enables VPC networking on a Droplet. This command adds a private IPv4 address to the Droplet that other resources inside the Droplet’s VPC network can access. The Droplet is placed in the default VPC network for the region it resides in.

All Droplets created after 1 October 2020 are provided a private IP address and placed into a VPC network by default. You can use this command to enable private networking on a Droplet that was created before 1 October 2020 and was not already in a VPC network.

Once you have manually enabled private networking for a Droplet, the Droplet requires additional internal network configuration for it to become accessible through the VPC network. For more information, see: https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/vpc/how-to/enable

Example

The following example enables private networking on a Droplet with the ID 386734086:

doctl compute droplet-action enable-private-networking 386734086
