NAT vs bridged networking for a VPS: which should I choose?

DirhamStack lets you pick the network mode for each VPS separately, so you can mix both on the same server depending on what each machine is for.

Private NAT shares the host's public IP. The VPS sits behind the host on the isolated hypervisor network, which is ideal for internal services, test environments or anything that does not need its own public address.

Bridged gives the VPS a dedicated public IP from a pool. This is the right choice when the VPS needs to be reachable directly from the internet on its own address, for example a public website or a customer facing server.

You choose the mode when you create the VPS, and you can run some machines on NAT and others on bridged at the same time.
