cPanel WHM Packages: Modify Default Dedicated IP Setting

In WHM, you can create and manage hosting packages that define the resources available to cPanel accounts. This guide explains how to modify the dedicated IP setting in WHM packages.

Understanding Dedicated IP in WHM Packages

When creating a hosting package, you can specify whether accounts using that package should have a dedicated IP address or share an IP with other accounts. Dedicated IPs are required for SSL certificates on older systems.

Modifying a Package

1. Log into WHM as root or reseller
2. Navigate to Packages → Edit a Package
3. Select the package you want to modify
4. Find the Dedicated IP option
5. Toggle the setting as needed
6. Click Save Changes

Creating a New Package with Dedicated IP

1. Navigate to Packages → Add a Package
2. Configure all the package settings
3. Under "Resources", check or uncheck the Dedicated IP option
4. Save the package

Note

Enabling dedicated IP for all accounts will require having sufficient IP addresses available on your server. Contact your datacenter for additional IP addresses if needed.
