View vultr lastest coupon promotion code - lastest giftcode

This tutorial explains how to setup an additional IPv4 address on your Vultr VPS. We will assume the following:

  • The Main IP Address of your VPS is 1.2.3.4.
  • You have purchased an additional IP address through the Vultr control panel, and you were assigned 1.2.3.5.

Regardless of the operating system installed on your VPS, you must reboot the VPS after purchasing a second IPv4 address.

Each example below will configure the secondary IP address to become automatically available, and remain configured even after your server is rebooted. You can test if the IP address is configured by pinging it with the ping utility on your client computer.
