Mixing dedicated IP with multiple domains?

**JeremyMiller** · 01-08-2008, 08:28 PM

Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum.

I have a client with a dedicated IP address and 5 domains on that same server. I know a dedicated IP is necessary for a secure cert, but can all 5 domains share the same dedicated IP and then get separate secure certs for each of them? Or, do I have to get a dedicated IP for each domain?

Ssl certificate is used for 1 IP (not domain name) and this is a rule.

Thanks. What I need to know, however, is how many IPs I'll need to purchase SSLs for all domains.

Thanks again.

You'll need to purchase 4 more IPs.
