Show/Edit Reserved IPs
Valid for versions 82 through the latest version
Version:
82
Overview
This feature allows you to reserve an IP address that is in your address pool. When you reserve an IP address, you cannot assign it to newly-created accounts. This is useful if, for example, you do not want the system to automatically assign a specific IP address to a new account as a dedicated IP address.
Important:
Reserving an IP address also prevents Apache® from listening on that IP address.
Reserve an IP address
To reserve an IP address, perform the following steps:
-
Select the checkbox next to the IP address that you wish to reserve.
Note:We strongly suggest that you specify a reason for why you reserved the IP address. This can be useful if, for example, multiple people administer your server. -
Click Save.
Unreserve an IP address
To unreserve an IP address, perform the following steps:
- Deselect the checkbox next to the IP address that you wish to place back in the address pool.
- Click Save.
