Using predefined static IP addresses for execution containers

Administrators can obtain predefined static IP addresses for cloud containers. These addresses must be added to your allowlist for Cloud Engine executions.

This feature is exclusively available for:
  • Capacity-based Qlik Talend Cloud licenses.
  • Seat-based Talend Cloud Platform licenses.

By default, up to 5 addresses are provided. For additional static IP addresses, contact Qlik and refer to Adding more static IP addresses for detailed steps.

About this task

Static IPs are provided for both the primary and secondary AWS regions to ensure high availability.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Configurations > Management Console.
  2. Enable the Static IPs feature by toggling it on.

Results

Predefined static IP addresses are generated for the primary and secondary AWS regions. You can add both lists to your network's allowlist.

When running a task, the cloud container uses one of the listed addresses from the primary region, or the secondary if the primary fails.

Information noteTip: To allow Talend Cloud Data Preparation to connect to a remote database, your administrators need to authorize incoming connections for Talend Cloud Data Preparation's IPs. The list of these IP addresses is available in the Configuration > Data Preparation tab.

Provisioning more static IP addresses

Coordinate with Qlik to schedule a maintenance window for provisioning static IP addresses.

About this task

When the Static IPs feature is enabled, a default set of 5 IPs is allocated. These IPs are used randomly and automatically when starting Cloud Engines

Procedure

  1. After obtaining more static IP addresses, contact Qlik Support to schedule a maintenance window.
    When using seat-based licenses, you need to purchase extra tokens for additional addresses.
  2. After the new static IPs are provisioned, log in to Talend Management Console. Turn off and turn back on the Static IPs toggle to refresh the IP list.
    This makes the new pool of static IPs visible in Talend Management Console.
  3. Update your firewall rules to allow all the static IPs.

Results

The static IPs are now configured and ready for use, ensuring smooth operation of your Cloud Engines.
