    • SNAT IPv4 AddressTo provide IPv4 Internet connectivity, an IPv4 source network address translation (SNAT) IP address is assigned to all cloud network domains. This address is used to provide all Internet-bound traffic with a public source IP address for global reachability. All servers in a cloud network domain share this public IPv4 address unless they are configured as part of a NAT, in which case the server’s public NAT IP address is used for Internet communications.
    • Outside Transit VLAN IPv4 Address - Used in various API action validations. See Introduction to IP Addressing in MCP 2.0.
    • Outside Transit VLAN IPv6 Address - Used in various API action validations. See Introduction to IP Addressing in MCP 2.0
    • IPv4 CPNC Gateway Address - IPv4 Address used for communicating with the CPNC Gateway 
    • IPv6 CPNC Gateway Address - IPv6 Address used for communicating with the CPNC Gateway
    • IPv4 Internet Gateway Address - IPv4 Address used to communicate with the internet
    • IPv6 Internet Gateway Address - IPv6 Address used to communicate with the internet
