Dynamic Host Addresses

.. warning::
|
|
|
|
This feature is in beta and currently supports Amazon EC2 only
|
|
|
|
Some hosts may have dynamic ip addresses or hostnames. For example, Amazon EC2 instances without elastic ips change their public address upon stop and restart events.
|
|
mRemote can automatically update the host property when ec2 region and instance-id properties are set:
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: /images/ec2instance.png
|
|
|
|
Before initiating the connection, mRemote will contact the EC2 API, fetch the current public ipv4 address and write it to the host field. Afterwards the connection is initiated as usual.
|
|
|
|
For this to work, a valid EC2 access key needs to be specified. mRemote will ask for it via a popup window if not yet specified. This token is then stored to registry. We strongly recommend to generate **readonly** access keys in the EC2 AMI interface.
