Adding more ips

[maikel]

If u want more ips u can create virtual devices.
Lets assume u have 1 network card called eth0.
Our first virtual device will be:
eth0:0

Now enter the ip and netmask u got from fdc servers and its all done:

ifconfig eth0:0 <ip> netmask <255.255.255.248>

Next command should be

ifconfig eth0:1 <ip> netmask<netmask>

And so on.

REMEMBER: U can't add ips on Vds u need to ask FDC to let them add them for you.

Good Luck!

If u are thinking of making this as a HOW-TO, it needs alot improvement.. Be more detailed and give it in details step.

If a newbie were to read this, they would assume, they can add any ip's, resulting in IP theft.. Advise them, they have to request additional ip's first and how to do that etc etc

When you reboot the server will not reacquire the ips. If you add them this way; you will have to rebind them to the server.

Can this be applied to dedicated server?
Can anyone revised or re-make it for dedicated server?

emjhay, to add ips to a dedicated server REQUEST it FIRST to IP ALLOCATION AREA.
