# How to set up a static IP address



## Case description {#case-description}

You need to set up a static IP address for a function or Serverless Containers.

## Solution {#case-resolution}

Assigning a static IP address to a cloud function is not supported yet. The function may run on resources with different addresses each time, so you cannot assign it a specific address.

As an alternative, you can use Yandex Compute Cloud. Create in it a VM instance with a static IP address, install the runtime environment for your programming language, and run the function code in it. For more information, see [here](../../../compute/operations/vm-create/create-linux-vm.md) and [there](../../../vpc/operations/get-static-ip.md).

{% note info %}

You can also use the API gateway to call the function via a custom domain.
