well that will be so cool , but DO's did not allow more than one ip

Hopefully they might allow / provide in the future

Hi,

Unfortunately we do not provide more than 1 IP per virtual server, if there are particular needs that require more than one IP let us know and we'll help you create a work around.

Thanks

Maybe you can think of standard additions for a vitual server, such as paid additional ips or subnets?

We don't have any plans yet to add more IP space to current virtual servers but if you let us know what your intended use is we could probably help you with a work around.

Thanks

Um, clearly needed more than one site with a SSL Certificate requires more than one IP address. Not allowing this at all, kind of a deal breaker.

Multiple SSL certs on a single IP can be configured with Nginx and is supported by the majority of modern browsers.

Are there any other use cases for multiple IPs that you are interested in?

SNI is not supported using Internet Explorer on Windows XP. Considering Windows XP still has more than 20% of the operating system market share, that leaves out an awfully large number of users. Again, deal breaker.

That's true but it is a decreasing market share and for some specific companies that share is much lower. Last time we checked we had only 10% internet explorer traffic if that.

Unfortunately we aren't supporting multiple IPs for a virtual server, and if we did the cost would probably be close to getting a second virtual server anyway so it's almost easier and cheaper overall to get another virtual machine.

some of your customer may want to setup their own shared hosting on your virtual machines for their many small website customers. Many of these may need SSL if they are eshops. Forcing to buy a differen VPS per ip, makes your service more expensive and more inefficient. Can you image that I should buy and setup a new VPS, instead of setting up just another apache virtual host?

If you want to resell through us you can also follow our article on Nginx on how to setup multiple SSLs on a single IP using Nginx:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-set-up-multiple-ssl-certificates-on-one-ip-with-nginx-on-ubuntu-12-04

I'll add that I've done this successfully with Lighttpd. Somewhere in the 1.4 branch they supported SNI as well. Just enable it primarily then set a certificate per vhost. I did test and it works.

Maybe the possibility to purchase more IP addresses at a reasonable price per month.

more Ip-v6 free, is an alternative for who need more ips

We will be adding IPv6 support in 2013 =]

Is someone have suggests on how to do HA without a floating IP?

There would be other changes that we would need to make on the network and routing side to allow for HA which is why we are looking into ways to provide a simpler load balancing service that does the heavy lifting for customers and is more plug and play.
