Is it possible to have multiple IP’s on the same server and is it possible to reach other instances on the private network using a private IP?

Hello, all
Another thing to mention is the usage of a Floating IPs.
A Floating IP is an IP address that can be instantly moved from one Droplet to another Droplet in the same datacenter.
Part of a highly available infrastructure is being able to immediately point an IP address to a redundant server. This is now possible with the addition of Floating IPs.
Floating IPs are free to use. However, due to the shortage of IPv4 addresses available, if you reserve an address but don’t assign it to a Droplet, we charge $0.006 per hour for each unassigned, reserved IP. (You can relinquish unused IPs from the control panel.) To keep billing simple, you will not be charged unless you accrue $1 or more.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
Is there an ETA for the private net IPs? I’m not sure who asked this question, but I need either multiple external IPs, or at the very least an internal network. I need multiple SSL sites and I can not use SNI since it’s not supported widely enough. <br> <br>Instead of multiple externals I was going to use a proxy/balancer to do the SSL termination and then send unencrypted to the back end servers, but I can only do that on a private network.
The day DigitalOcean offers additional IPs it will be nail in the coffin for companies like Linode! We manage over 30 servers that we would migrate here because it would cut costs in 1/2!! But IP = no go. <br> <br>Of course if Linode adds SSD options without increasing current pricing then since they already have much more to offer just from the GUI control panel alone and no IP limitations, Linode would be killer!
