It is still possible to create more specific zone-level address maps with specific BYOIPs, but DNS will fall back to the account-wide address map without one.

Nit: I wouldn't use any particular formatting for "no expected downtime" (we usually reserve bold for UI labels). If there was expected downtime, this would be a warning and eventually we could need the bold.

Yeah, I usually avoid the bold but was afraid the no could go unnoticed in the middle of this sentence. Will revisit with more time later.

## Create address maps

To avoid any errors if you have [static IPs](/byoip/concepts/static-ips/), Cloudflare creates an address map during the static IP onboarding process, meaning you cannot create a new address map with your static IPs. You may only edit the Cloudflare-created map and add or edit your zones within the existing map.
