Static and Dynamic IP Addresses¶

Create Static IPs and Certificates¶

Open Command Prompt as an Administrator. Change directory to the ..\scripts\kubernetes folder within the MPS repository that was downloaded and unzipped.
```
cd [path-to-MPS_MicroService-repo-folder]\scripts\kubernetes
```
In this directory, run the following .bat script to create the required IPs and Certificates for MPS and RPS. Provide a new password of your choice for your private keys and save and/or remember it.
```
createipsandcerts.bat [resource-group-name] [aks-cluster-name][your-private-keys-password]
```

Copy and save the outputted MPS Static IP Address, RPS Static IP Address, and Node Resource Group from the script.

C:\quickstart\mps\scripts\kubernetes>"MPS IP ADDRESS" 13.87.225.246

C:\quickstart\mps\scripts\kubernetes>"RPS IP ADDRESS" 13.87.226.61

C:\quickstart\mps\scripts\kubernetes>"Node Resource Group"  C_matt-rg_matt-aks_westus

Creating kubectl secrets with name "mpscerts" and keys rootCA_mps.key rootCA_mps.crt mps_cert.key mps_cert.crt secret/mpscerts created
Creating kubectl secrets with name "rpscerts" and keys rootCA_rps.key rootCA_rps.crt rps_cert.key rps_cert.crt secret/rpscerts created

At this point, all of your cert key names are stored in your Kubernetes secret store. When building the stack, we will pull them down.
