How to Add New IP Address from WHM<\/a><\/h2>\n

Adding a new IP address in WHM allows server administrators to assign dedicated IPs to hosting accounts, configure private nameservers, and manage server resources more efficiently. Before adding the IP address in WHM, ensure that the IP has already been routed to your server by your hosting provider or data center.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Log in to WHM<\/h3>\n

Log in to your WHM account using root credentials.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Open IP Functions<\/h3>\n

From the left-side menu, navigate to: IP Functions<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\"whm_ip_functions\"<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Step 3: Click on Add a New IP Address<\/h3>\n

Under IP Functions, select:<\/p>\n

Add a New IP Address<\/strong><\/p>\n

A form will appear where you can enter the new IP details.<\/p>\n

\n

\"whm_add_new_ip_address\"<\/p>\n

Step 4: Enter the New IP Address<\/h3>\n

In the New IP or IP range to add<\/strong> field, enter the IP address you want to add to the server.<\/p>\n

\n

\"add-new-ip-address-whm\"<\/p>\n

Step 5: Select the Subnet Mask<\/h3>\n

Choose the correct subnet mask from the dropdown menu.<\/p>\n

\n

Important:<\/strong> Selecting an incorrect subnet mask may cause network connectivity issues. If you are unsure about the subnet mask, contact your hosting provider before proceeding.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Step 6: Click Submit<\/h3>\n

After entering the IP address and subnet mask, click: Submit<\/strong><\/p>\n

WHM will process the request and add the IP address to your server.<\/p>\n

Step 7: Verify the Added IP<\/h3>\n

To confirm the IP has been added successfully, go to:<\/p>\n

IP Functions \u2192 Show or Delete Current IP Addresses<\/strong><\/p>\n

The newly added IP address should now appear in the list.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

Adding a new IP address in WHM is a simple process that helps server administrators manage dedicated IP assignments, private nameservers, SSL configurations, and hosting accounts efficiently. Always verify that the IP is routed correctly and use the appropriate subnet mask before adding it to the server.<\/p>\n
