Hosting: Launch of multiple IP addresses for your servers
By Ryan on Friday 13 November 2009, 09:08 - Hosting - Permalink
Hello,
Today we have launched the functions allowing you to manage your own interfaces. You may configure up to 4 interfaces per server.
To add an additional interface, you will need to add additional IP address quota via the resource management interface.
Each additional IP address costs €1 excl. VAT per month (if paid monthly), or €10 (ex VAT) per year if paid annually, e.g. 2 months free!
This new function lays the foundations for us to provide you with some really cool features in the future such as an IP failover system, the utilization of IPv6 addresses or even creating a private networks between your servers.
As this has been at the top of your Wishlist for several months, we sincerely hope that this new feature will make you smile!
You can find documentation on this in our wiki here.

Thanks guys! You're doing a great job!
Private networks between servers would be nice, yeah
Seconded; now that you have the ability to assign additional IP addresses to each server, please consider adding a private, non-routable (10.0.0.0/8) IP address to each server, usable only to communicate between gandi servers. Bonus if that private communication can take advantage of more than the normal bandwidth limit (if available).
