January 4, 2022 / cPanel & WHM

This guide will help you in understanding how to change the main shared IP address of the server in WHM.

You may wish the accounts on your server that do not have dedicated IP addresses to share an IP address different than the server’s main IP address in various instances. WHM allows you to modify the main shared IP to any of your server’s existing IP addresses.

Let us see how to change the IP address:

  1. Log in to WHM.
    WHM Login
