Announcing a new self-serve API for Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP), giving customers unprecedented control and flexibility to onboard, manage, and use their own IP prefixes with Cloudflare's services.
July 14th, 2025, Cloudflare made a change to our service topologies that caused an outage for 1.1.1.1 on the edge, causing downtime for 62 minutes for customers using the 1.1.1.1 public DNS Resolver.
IPv4 is expensive, and moving network resources around is hard. Previously, when customers wanted to use multiple Cloudflare services, they had to bring a new address range.
We are closing the cleartext HTTP ports entirely for Cloudflare API traffic. This prevents the risk of clients unintentionally leaking their secret API keys in cleartext during the initial request.
