How to add an additional IP address in Windows
From Amen Wiki
| To make use of the additional IP addresses that have been assigned to your dedicated server, you will have to add the IP addresses from Remote Desktop. |
| If you use Plesk, the connection to the server might be cut. |
Once you have established a Remote Desktop connection to your server do the following:
- Login and open your Control Panel
- Open Network Connections then choose the Local Area Network
- Choose Properties
- Double click on TCP/IP
- Click on the Advanced button
- Click on Add button in the IP Addresses section to add one IP at a time.
- Add the IP. Beware of the netmask, normally 255.255.255.0
- Click Add
- Click OK until you reach the desktop
- Ping the new installed IP, this IP should work now.
Repeat the process with any other IP addresses made available to you.
