Exam 1Z0-1124-24 Topic 1 Question 48 Discussion

A). Delete the associated VNIC: While deleting the associated VNIC would make the IP address unusable, it wouldn,t actually release it for future use. The reserved IP would still be tied to your account and unavailable for other resources.B. Terminate the instance using the IP: Similar to option A, terminating the instance wouldn,t release the reserved IP. Even if the instance is no longer using it, the reservation would remain active.D. Update the subnet CIDR block to exclude the reserved IP: Changing the subnet CIDR block is not recommended for reserved IP addresses. This would impact all IP addresses within the subnet, potentially affecting running instances and requiring reconfiguration. Additionally, some cloud platforms might not allow modifying the reserved IP block through CIDR change.Therefore, the proper way to release a reserved public IP address for future use is to explicitly release it through the console or API provided by your cloud platform. This typically involves finding the management section for reserved IP addresses and selecting the specific IP you want to release. There might be an option labeled "release," "unreserve," or something similar.
