Can I change main IP Address on my VPS?

[Jovani]

Hi there,
I'm facing Ddos problem and some other problems for recent days now on my server IP and therefore I wanted to change to a new IP address instead for the main server ip.
Is it possible? and what things do I need to consider before changing?

 

[RDO Servers]

That will be up to your VPS provider. Open a support tucket with them and they should have no problem giving you a new IP.

Keep in mind, you will have to make the corresponding changes in your control panel, DNS records, etc.

The request will need to be made directly to your service provider. However keep in mind that this will not necessarily fix the DDOS attack and they might just resume afterwards. If the DDOS attacks are due to the type of site you have you might want to look at DDOS protection as this might be on going.

Changing ip wont solve your problem after your new ip get DDoS it will be null routed so you need protect your server from DDos by installing firewall and configuration.
