How do I change the IPs assigned to my VDS?

Post by Edge100x »

If you want to change the IP assigned to your VDS, you have two options. Choose one of these:
  1. Add IPs to your package, and potentially delete your old ones.

    To do this, go through the upgrade procedure and select the "Add IP addresses" option, adding as many new IPs as you would like to replace. Finish the upgrade, and the system will assign and email you these new ones, which you can add through the OS of your VDS.

    Then, remove the old IPs that you don't wish to keep.

  2. Move your server to a different location.

    In moving to the new location, you will have to be assigned new IPs, as each location has its own IP blocks. To change locations, follow the standard upgrade procedure on our order page, selecting the new specifications (including the new location) and then using the "This is a change to an existing server" option at the bottom of the page. The system will reply with further steps.

    Note that a location move will take some time, but your files will be retained: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =47&t=4546
