Is a static white IP issued to the router via DHCP, or does it need to be configured?

Question

Computer networks

Hello everyone

I ordered a static white IP service, and the provider gave me the address 172.23.4.41.
The same address is displayed in the WAN in the router settings.

When I go online, the address is different, 37.114.27.3.

As far as I understand, the first address is from the gray range, and the second is not.
At the same time, it is impossible to reach my machine at 37.114.27.3. Ports 80 and 443 on Kinetics are forwarded to my machine.

This is the provider's cant, or the router should have additional. settings?
WAN should eventually show the external IP, or can there be their gray address?

This is a continuation of the question, but since the question is different, I started a new one How to direct requests to one machine on the network?

Thanks

Update 1 - As it turns out, the ISP connected a static gray address instead of a static white address

Answer 1

172.23.х.х is not an external IP if anything, you are behind the NAT of the provider whose address is 37.114.27.3

You have been deceived. This is not even white at all, but the most common gray address from the RFC1918-based network 172.16.0.0/12. Then you are NAT-yat and, as a result, you go to tyrnet through the provider's gateway (along with thousands of the same ones).
That is, in fact - the money was paid, the service was not provided, because the point of the service is to give you a unique address that will identify you personally :)
It makes sense to raise the Moscow provider.
Usually the settings are issued via dhcp - prov just makes a "reservation" in which the same poppy gets the same IP. They can also be issued manually - if the server considers that the user is qualified enough. Also, very often manual settings are issued to legal entities, because there are different contracts and everything else.

Implementation dependent. Usually yes, the white address falls on the wan port. Depending on the ISP, the type of connection may change (excellently described on the provider's website, if not, in theory, no additional action is required).
But if we talk about "unusual", I had a provider that, when activating the "static ip" service, continued to issue a "gray" address to the router, but on its part the address of the output router was fixed and all incoming traffic was completely forwarded to my router 1 in 1, so to speak DMZ.

Answer 4

It was like that at first they gave me white and it was white on the wan interface (I don’t remember setting it up with my hands or dhsp) and then after some time something changed at the provider and I got a gray address on the wan interface. But the forwarded ports from the gray address to the host on the local network worked, that is, when accessing the example from the Internet at the white address on http://..., the web server that was configured on the machine on the local network responded. So maybe white and grey. You need to talk to the provider. Show your router settings. Is the web server configured and responding to the local network?
