Ipv4-address problem - ISPConfig 3.0.4.4

[dclardy]

From what I have seen, ISPConfig treats a defined IP as a dedicated IP. You can't use it for more than that. I think that is the case at least,

[till]

You can share a IP between as many webs as you like and you can use * in as many webs as youlike. So a IP is not dediacted to one website only. The only thing that you cant do is that you mix * and IP address. And thats all not ispconfig specific, its the way apache works.

[till]

Here a example.

DNS Records are:

a.tld 192.168.0.100
b.tld 192.168.0.100
c.tld 192.168.0.101

so 192.168.0.100 is a shared IP address as it is used by a.tld and b.tld while c.tld has a dedicated IP.

Apache server settings / websites:

working setups:

a.tld *
b.tld *
c.tld *

---

a.tld 192.168.0.100
b.tld 192.168.0.100
c.tld *

--

a.tld *
b.tld *
c.tld 192.168.0.101

--

a.tld 192.168.0.100
b.tld 192.168.0.100
c.tld 192.168.0.101

--

Not working setups

a.tld *
b.tld 192.168.0.100
c.tld *

--
a.tld 192.168.0.100
b.tld *
c.tld 192.168.0.101

--
a.tld 192.168.0.100
b.tld *
c.tld *

So IPv4-Address configuration is DNS related.
What if a domain name has a round robin DNS?

DNS E.g.:
a.tld 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4, 127.0.0.5
b.tld 127.0.0.1

ISPConfig:
a.tld *
b.tld 127.0.0.1

This can't be done, right?

Right, but this can be done:

DNS E.g.:
a.tld 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4, 127.0.0.5
b.tld 127.0.0.1

ISPConfig:
a.tld *
b.tld 127.0.0.1

and this can be done:

DNS E.g.:
a.tld 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4, 127.0.0.5
b.tld 127.0.0.1

ISPConfig:
a.tld *
b.tld *

and this can be done:

DNS E.g.:
a.tld 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4, 127.0.0.5
b.tld 127.0.0.1

ISPConfig:
a.tld 127.0.0.1
b.tld 127.0.0.1

Got it, thank you very much.
