AWS Outposts servers now support service link static configuration

Today, AWS announces the general availability of static networking configuration support for the service link and DNS IP addresses of AWS Outposts servers. This new feature enables customers to configure the service link interface and DNS IP addresses of their Outposts servers with static IP addresses during installation, eliminating the requirement for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers in their data centers.

This enhancement is valuable for customers with stringent networking security requirements who cannot use DHCP servers in their data centers. These customers can now configure IP addresses manually for the service link connection while maintaining their security standards.

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Outposts servers are supported.

Customers need to configure this feature during the Outposts servers installation. To learn more, visit the Outposts server installation guide.
