Please read up on the following sections for information about IP Address Assignment Schemes.

Understanding IP Address Assignments

We have several commonly-used IP address assignment schemes already set up for you to choose from. If none of these are what you want, you can choose the "I Will Specify On The Next Page" option (explained below)

Share with any existing domains (namebased, this is default)

This option will select an IP address that is already in use on your account and set up all of the domains in the list onto that IP address.

Advantages:

  • Unlimited domains, no extra charge.

Put all new domains on their own new IP addresses (ip based)

This option will create each domain in the list and assign it a random IP address from our pool of unused IP addresses. If you have 10 domains in the list, this will add 10 IP addresses to your account. If at any time your account exceeds its number of alloted IP addresses, you will be charged for these additional IP addresses.

Advantages:

  • SSL certificates require a unique ip
  • you are able to access and upload content to the domain before dns propagation via http://your.domains.ip.address

Randomly assign from my current used IP addresses

This option is similar to the [[namebased option, in that it will require no additional IPs on your account. However, unlike the namebased option, this will randomly assign each domain to one of the IP addresses used in your account. This typically results in a more even distribution of domains to IPs than the standard namebased option, since it doesn't pick simply 1 IP address, but instead spreads the domains across multiple IPs.

Advantages:

  • Unlimited domains, no extra charge.
  • More even distribution of Domains than standard namebased.

Put all new domains on a single new IP address

This option will add one new IP address to your account, regardless of how many domains are added, and set up all of the domains on this single new IP address. Just as with the IP based option If at any time your account exceeds its number of alloted IP addresses, you will be charged for these additional IP addresses.

I will specify on the next page

This should be used if you have a specific Ip address assignment scheme that we do not have an option for. if this is the case, select the option and proceed to the next page.

More Information! (IP Options and Special Instructions)

Next up, is the second and final page before the request is submitted to us. Here you can review the proposed IP assignments of your domains, modify them if you choose, and indicate any special instructions you wish us to follow.

IP Assignments

As you can see, you can view and modify any of the proposed IP addresses for individual domains. Nothing is final at this point, so feel free to play around. The dropdown menus next to the domains list each IP address on your account, along with how many domains are already active on it. Additionally, they have a "New IP" option, as well as an "Any existing IP."


Special Instructions

This is a place for any further information you wish to include for us while we process your request.

Submit!

If, after reviewing and tweaking any IP address settings and including special instructions if they are needed, you think that everything looks good, go ahead and hit the "Submit Domain Addition Request" button and we will get to work on it right away for you!
