How to configure the reverse DNS of a Dedibox failover IP

Failover IP addresses allow you to assign multiple IP addresses to your server. This enables you to allocate different IPs to websites, virtual machines, or services.

Your failover IP can be routed at any time to your servers within a few minutes using the Scaleway Account Management console or API. By transferring failover IP addresses between servers, hosted services remain available without requiring IP reconfiguration.

You can add failover IP addresses to each server based on your offer and service level.
