Important note: This article is applicable only for dedicated servers running on operating system FreeBSD (without a control panel).
Once the particular IP(s) are disclosed to you, please follow the instructions below on how to add them to your dedicated server IP pool:
1. Login to your server using SSH with username root.
2. Edit your rc.conf file to assign alias of the IP address at every server boot. You need to add the following line at the end of your /etc/rc.conf file:
ifconfig_rl0_alias0=”<IP address> netmask 255.255.255.0”
Note: You have to replace <IP address> with your actual IP address. We assume that you are adding your first additional IP address and you currently have only one assigned. If you are adding your “#n”th IP address then use ifconfig_rl0_alias#n-1. Please also note that you must give a non-conflicting netmask for each IP.
3. Finally, run the command # /etc/rc.d/inetd reload. You can now start to configure your firewall and Apache VirtualHost.
You can also use:
ifconfig bce1 add x.x.x.x netmask y.y.y.y
Just run that as root.
I have had my hosting with AYK since 2006, and it has by far been the best experience I have ever had with any hosting company. The support is always spot on and available around the clock, excellent for me since I'm always working on things at odd hours. They make upgrading to fit needs very clean and easy, the cost is excellent for services received, and they have me as a customer for life.
You can trust your business with AYKsolutions After a horrible experience with my prior host that left me with over 14 hours of downtime, AYKSolutions came in, took care of the transfer completely and made my life easier. When they say their servers are semi-managed, it means they take care of more then most managed server hosting companies. Average ticket response time? 2-5 minutes. One time i n the middle of the night it took 30 minutes. Problems that I create are fixed immediately and they take care of their customers. Artyom is the owner, who is somehow capable of not sleeping. He's always there to take care of everything with a personal touch. 3 AM on a Saturday? Not an issue for AYKSolutions. Trust me, I'm very thorough in researching a company. When it comes to business, you can never be too careful. I trust my business with AYKSolutions
