Change Shared IP used for new subscriptions

[JacobG]

We would like to change the default shared IP address being used for NEW subscriptions. I have read up on using the reconfigurator to change the default shared IP address, but it also changes all existing accounts which are using the old IP. We don't care about people having access to switch their IP to the old default, and definitely want to leave it there.

Is there a way to do this in Plesk/CLI?

You can change your default IP address to use your editor from the command line.
Than you've to change the default IP address, create your primary IP at "ifcfg-venet0:0".

See your IP network, your IP address may list 1x.

ifconfig

Edit and switch the IP into this file:

vim /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-venet0:0

Change the IP's to a correct list and so on.

vim /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-venet0:1

Restart network and check.

/etc/init.d/network restart

Thanks for your reply.

I'm familiar with network settings in RHEL/CentOS, but this will not change the IP address that Plesk uses to setup new accounts (via GUI nor API through our billing system).
