If you need to connect from behind the corporate firewall, you need the BlazeMeter engines to have dedicated (static) IP addresses. You can assign dedicated IPs to your BlazeMeter engines. Each IP address belongs to a specific region, for instance, US East (Virginia), EU West (London), or any other Google Cloud location.
Purchase Dedicated IPs
Dedicated IPs are only available for Enterprise plans, and are not available to Free, Basic, or Pro plans. For more details, please contact your BlazeMeter account manager or send an email to sales@blazemeter.com.
Typically, you purchase one IP address for every engine on your plan. The purchased IP addresses are reserved exclusively per customer.
Examples:
- 20 engines plan = 20 IPs
- 50 engines plan = 50 IPs
- 100 engine plan = 100 IPs
Activate Dedicated IPs
To request for dedicated IPs in your BlazeMeter account, create a support ticket or contact your BlazeMeter account manager.
The following information is required:
- The account associated email address in BlazeMeter.
- The region(s) you want and how many IP addresses should be allocated to each region. For example: 10 IPs in Oregon, 20 IPs in Sydney, 30 IPs in Sao Paulo.
BlazeMeter will follow up with you and complete the purchase order for these IPs. Your static IP address allocation takes up to 24 hours after receiving confirmation from the step above.

View Dedicated IPs
Follow these steps:
- Click the Settings button in the top right corner.
- From the menu on the left, expand the Workspace drop-down list.
- Click Dedicated IPs.
Your IP addresses are available for you at any time when you run a test in the region that you purchased.
Important: If the test will not start, and an error message appears, you do not have enough dedicated IPs:
Run a Test with Dedicated IPs
- Create a new test or configure an existing one.
- Go to the Configuration tab.
- Scroll down to Load Distribution section.
- From the Locations drop-down list, select your test location.
- Select the Use Dedicated IPs checkbox.
Note: The number of IP addresses should be the same as the number of servers used in the test.
Sharing Dedicated IPs with other Workspaces
You can share Dedicated IPs with multiple workspaces to make use of the IPs most efficiently. Users who are part of different workspaces in your account can assign the same shared dedicated IPs as test locations. Only one test can use a shared Dedicated IP at the same time.
- Contact Support and inform them which Dedicated IPs you wish to share with which workspaces in your account.
- Users across workspaces assign the shared Dedicated IPs to tests.
- Users across workspaces run the tests.
The IPs that are occupied by tests are not available to other tests. User will see a temporarynot enough engines/dedicated IPs to run the testmessage.
