Do you by chance have a sample sql query that would perform this?

There should be a way to have the ability to reserve an IP and still have
DHCP assign the IP by mac reservation. There's no technical reason this
wouldn't work and likely a feature a lot of people would love to see. The
only hold back is the UI not allowing you to do so.

Ultimately, you can go to the DB and change the VM's IP in the nics table
to what you want (reboot the VM and the IP change will occur). Which is not
the preferred way to do so, but ultimately that functionality from the UI
would be ideal.

Even going as far as intergrating IPAM functionality into the product would
be ideal.

Simple answer - you can't.

In an advanced zone, you can specify the IP address when you create a new
VM using the API, however in a basic zone, because the IP will depend on
which POD your VM ends up in, and as a user you cannot influence this,
there is no way to specific the IP, even if you are a root admin.

The reason it still fails when you manually change the IP is that the
security groups feature is expecting the VM to have the IP CloudStack
allocated it via DHCP.

cloudstack version: 4.1
network type: basic network

When I create a new instance,the vm will get a random IP from the DHCP
server on vrouter.

If I want to:
1.allocate a specific ip to the vm.
2.allocate multiple ips to the vm.
3.change the vm ip from one to another.

How can I achieve it? I try to bind the ip to the vm nic manually but the
ip can not be accessed.
