IP-addresses (ISPmanager)
From ISPWiki
An IP-address in ISPmanager may have one of the following statuses:
- Hidden - IP-address should not be used in ISPmanager.
- Free - it cannot be used in ISPmanager for creation of WWW domains, but it can be assigned to user or reseller (you can choose one when creating a user).
- Shared - IP-address can be used by any of the ISPmanager users who does not have assigned or shared addresses (you can disable this type of addresses with AlwaysAllowSharedIp).
- Assigned - IP-address is assigned to a specific user or reseller, and it can be used only by him. An owner of the IP-address can create a WWW domain, change the name of the IP-address in a reverse zone and assign a WWW domain that will open in case the domain name that is not associated with any of the WWW domains will be called by this IP-address (default WWW domain). Besides, reseller (the owner of this IP-address) can change its status himself. In this case, the administrator will see that the IP-address is assigned to the reseller, and on the reseller's level it will have any of the above mentioned statuses.
- Mutual - IP-address is assigned to a group of users. They can use them when creating new WWW domains, but cannot change its name and assign a default WWW domain.
Please, read the article "Working with IP-addresses" for more details.
The IP-addresses management module can be used for managing server's IP-addresses. You can add new IP-addresses and assign them to WWW domains and reseller accounts.
