Title: Multiple Static IP's
Post by: Seeker on February 27, 2008, 06:18:20 PM

I have used SME for a couple years in the server only mode but I'm considering moving it to the front line to replace my firewall. My question is can SME handle multiple static IP's? One thing I must be able to do is have port 80 on 3 of my IP's each routed to a different server. I do this now by routing external IP to internal IP.

Thanks

By default sme supports a single IP only, but you can configure external records to point mutiple IPs at the main domain/single IP.
Then use Proxypass db entries to forward port 80 for each domain (that I assume is assocaited with each IP).

Note you can quite easily host multiple domains (web & email) on the one server using the single IP, sme is up to it.
