CS1.6 Server Start With Reserved IP.

[Nadeem-]

• Your Nickname:Nadeem
• Your Problem:Hello CSBLACKDEVIEL Members/STaff, I am starting up a CS1.6 server on cloud for a year with csoutstanding (Vikas Birdy Num Num) addons. My next step is to set up the DNS (SERVERNAME.TLD) and advise to players connect using the DNS instead of the IP address in case the server fails or needs replacement.
  However, I am worried about maintaining the IP address if the server crashes or needs a new installation in case I will lose my IP address. To solve this problem, I reserved an IP address, but I'm having trouble connecting to the server using it.
  Can you please advise me on how to start the server using the reserved IP address? This will help me keep the IP address even if the server fails, gets deleted, or crashes. Thank you!
  (Currently server are working on IPV4 because this ip address set in in server i need to start with reserved

Hi Nadeem,

To start your server with a reserved IP address, you will need to follow a few steps:

Log in to your cloud hosting account and locate the section for managing your IP addresses.

Assign your reserved IP address to your CS1.6 server. The process for doing this will vary depending on your hosting provider, so you may need to consult their documentation or contact their support team for assistance.

Once your reserved IP address is assigned to your server, you will need to update your DNS settings to point to the new IP address. This is typically done through your domain registrar or DNS provider.

After updating your DNS settings, you should test to ensure that players can connect to your server using the DNS name. You can do this by attempting to connect to the server using the DNS name yourself, or by asking a friend to try connecting from a different location.

If you continue to have trouble connecting to the server using your reserved IP address, you may need to check your server configuration settings to ensure that they are correctly configured to use the new IP address.

I hope this helps you get your server up and running with your reserved IP address. Good luck

I tried using a reserved IP, but it seems to work as a mask for the original IP. When I checked the IP through SSH, the original IP was shown. I can access the website using both the original and reserved IPs, but I can only connect to the server using the original IP and not the reserved one.

Regarding the issue with connecting to the server, it's possible that the server is configured to only accept connections from the original IP address. You might need to check the server's settings to see if there's an option to allow connections from the reserved IP as well.

Another possibility is that there's a firewall rule in place that's preventing the reserved IP from accessing the server. You might want to check the firewall settings and see if you can modify them to allow access from the reserved IP.

Overall, it's important to carefully review your network configuration to ensure that everything is set up correctly. If you're still having issues, you might want to consider reaching out to a network specialist for further assistance.
