Manage networking, IPs and reverse DNS

Read VPS addresses#

Open VPS details, then Networking and IP. Separate cards show public IPv4 and IPv6 prefix. Copy buttons copy the displayed value exactly.

An IPv6 prefix represents a network. For connection or reverse DNS, use a full host address in that network, not a value containing /64. Missing addresses are stated, not invented.

Edit reverse DNS#

Reverse DNS associates an IP with a name. It does not create or change domain A/AAAA records. The portal rechecks address ownership before submission to the provider.

1. Click Edit reverse DNS.
2. Check the IP address. For a compatible real VPS, a full IPv6 address within its prefix can be entered; simulation is limited to its IPv4.
3. Enter a full DNS name, such as vps.example.com, without https:// or a path. Leave empty to restore the default.
4. Click Save reverse DNS, then wait for confirmation and status refresh.

Private networks, firewalls and floating IPs#

Cards list attached private networks, addresses and aliases, plus firewall IDs and statuses. Applied is provider-confirmed; In progress or Unknown status does not confirm completion.

Attachments and floating IP IDs are read-only here. This screen cannot create networks, change firewall rules or move floating IPs. Missing data may need a provider connection or refresh.

Read traffic#

Incoming, Outgoing and Included traffic are volume counters reported by the provider. Units adapt to values. These are not instantaneous rates; use Metrics for bytes and packets per second.

If counters are unavailable, the screen shows a dash. The portal does not infer usage or a billing period from missing data.

Request an additional address#

Submission records a request for the operations team. It does not purchase an address, change VPS IPs or guarantee assignment. Wait for approval and any quote before configuring.

1. Click Request an IP address.
2. Choose IPv4 or IPv6. An already recorded request of the same type is identified and cannot be resubmitted from this window.
3. Click Send request.
4. Find its date and Awaiting review status under Additional address requests.

Troubleshooting#

Reverse DNS errors may come from an invalid name, an address outside the VPS or an ongoing operation. Keep useful values, refresh and read the returned message before retrying. Accepted changes may not be immediately visible in external DNS caches.
