Issue
- The ingress IP address of our Liferay Cloud instance shows a different location than expected.
Resolution
- The ingress IP address does not reflect the actual location of the specific regional data center where your environment is hosted. The ingress IP address is associated with Google Cloud's global load balancing system, which directs traffic to the closest point of presence.
- Use the egress IP address to determine the location of your Liferay Cloud instance.
- Retrieve the egress IP address using this command in Liferay Shell:
curl https://ifconfig.me
