Adding in New IP and Gateway




Posted by nbyteme, 07-21-2008, 10:07 AM
My server in the datacenter has to migrate to new IPs. Is it feasible to add new ip and gateway and have that operating on eth0 -- doing it remotely? The dc said I can have both IPs concurrently working for the next 10 days or so. But, I'm still unsure if I can safely set the new ip and gateway on the server remotely. Any help would be appreciated. Of course, I have logged a ticket to see if they will set my new primary ip from the console and all the virtual interfaces ... But, would like to know for my own information if this process is doable remotely. Thanks.

If you have access via SSH or cPanel you can - also what OS if the first?
