-The number of available IP addresses in the assigned ranges does not restrict number of concurrent jobs specified for autoscaling. Within a runner pool, there is a load balancer which allows for high reuse of the IP addresses in the assigned ranges. This ensures your workflows can run concurrently at scale while each machine is assigned a static IP address.
+Each {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %} you create is not a single machine. It is a pool of runners that automatically scales out to handle concurrent jobs, up to the maximum concurrency you set when creating the runner. All jobs in the pool share the same static IP address range. This means a single {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %} with one static IP range can handle many jobs running at the same time without requiring additional runners.
