How to change the panel IP address
Why?
- To change the server IP address
- To change the primary IP address of the panel
Instructions
PLEASE NOTE!
Do not remove the initial IP address of the panel until all settings are completed.
First, add the future IP address to the panel:
- Go to "Settings" section - "IP addresses";
- Click the "Create" button;
- Enter a new IP address and click the "Create" button.
Now, the new IP address can be assigned to the panel.
- Go to the "Settings" section - "Panel settings";
- In the opened tab, click the "Add" button in the "Panel address" section;
- Fill in the following fields:
- "IP address" - the new IP address added earlier;
- "Port" - specify the port number to accept incoming connections. If the field is left empty, the default value will be used.
- "Forbid HTTP connections" - the built-in web server can accept requests via HTTP and HTTPS protocols; check the box if you want to prohibit HTTP requests. In this case they will be automatically redirected to HTTPS.
- Click the "Create" button.
In case it's required to change the IP address of the server, the IP addresses of all panel entities should be changed as well:
- Domains in the "DNS management" section,
- Websites in the "Sites" section,
- Mail domains in the "Mail" section - "Mail domains",
- Database servers in the "Database" section - "Database servers",
- The
hostlist relay_from_hosts
parameter in the Exim configuration file.
