Normally, a `rippled` server attempts to maintain a healthy number of peers, and automatically connects to untrusted peers up to a maximum number. You can configure a `rippled` server to remain connected to specific peer servers in several ways:
- Use **Fixed Peers** to remain always connected to specific other peers based on their IP addresses. This only works if the peers have fixed IP addresses. Use the `[ips_fixed]` config stanza to configure fixed peers. This is a necessary part of [clustering](clustering.html) or [private peers](#private-peers).
- Use **Peer Reservations** to prioritize specific peers. If your server has a peer reservation for a specific peer, then your server always accepts connection requests from that peer even if your server is already at its maximum number of connected peers. (This can cause your server to go _over_ the maximum number of peers.) For reserved peers, you can identify the other peer by its [node key pair](#node-key-pair), so you can do this even for peers with variable IP addresses. [New in: rippled 1.4.0][]
