How to Associating and Disassociating an Address on AWS
Associate or dissociate an elastic IP address with an instance.
Associating a newly created address
If you just created an Elastic IP and selected Associate this Elastic IP Address from the newly created address prompt, you will be immediately taken to associate this particular address.
In the Associate Elastic IP screen, you will select the resource type you wish to associate the IP address with. We strongly suggest associating with one of the network interfaces for your instance (unless you are creating a standalone SoftNAS instance, and do not plan to make it highly available).

Once the Network Interface is selected, click Associate.

Similarly, it is possible to dissociate an address from the associated instance.
The Dissociate Address message box asking for confirmation of the dissociation of address with the specific instance will be displayed.
The selected address will be dissociated from the instance.
