How to use extra IP addresses on your server

Some plans include extra IPs. You can see them in your client area on the service page.

Why use more than one IP

• Separate sites or apps on their own IP
• Run SSL on several domains with older software
• Keep different services apart

Add an IP on Ubuntu (Netplan)

Edit the file in /etc/netplan/ and add the address under addresses:, for example:

addresses:
  - 203.0.113.10/24
  - 203.0.113.11/24

Apply it:

netplan apply

Windows

Open Network settings → Ethernet → IP settings → Advanced and add the extra IP.

The exact netmask and gateway are shown in your service details. If you are unsure, open a ticket.
