Hi, Support

Can I request or buy an additional public IP subnet? Something like a /29 or if that's not possible a /30?

Thanks in advanced

No, VM residential only provide you with one WAN IP address. VM business can provide more. Why do you need it?

I work from home and host a Web server so need the IPs for additional services.

Thanks,

You can do all that on one WAN IP with a good router

Hi,

Yeah this is how I'm doing it currently. Additional IPs is nice for simplicity.

Thanks,

When I was  Telewest customer they did offer two. It was a one off payment of £5 and they provided a 10Mb switch to go between your modem and your two devices requiring a public address.

When NTL got their fingers in the pie  they stole that provision without consulting the customers who had bought it.

To answer the question confirm no. I have Haproxy implemented on my firewall. Meaning that instead of port forwarding I reverse proxy by URL. So have multiple back end devices and can add authentication for Internet exposure of devices that do not have such. Plus SSL offloading with a wildcard Lets Encrypt certificate front ending a traditional HTTP back end device.

Use  DDNS A address and cname all your Internet exposed urls.
