Note that the IP addresses were excluded (internal and public), if you do not book a public IP (maximum of 5 per signature), you may notice that you have a web site or application on this machine, the web site / application will be unavailable and when turning it back as a new public IP will be provisioned. You have to do a DNS entry manually if you are accessing by a proper name.
