I have a client that requires a second IP address on their internet connection. They are currently connected via ADSL and were looking to change to TelstraClear VDSL but were told that there was no option for an additional IP address on the VDSL product.
The client requires a second IP address as they want to serve up a second SSL based application from their connection (the first being outlook web access). The second application is for remote employee access only and running it over a custom ssl port is not an option – it also needs to use 443. They have a basic cisco firewall and I’m not sure if it can split and redirect SSL traffic to different internal IP addresses based on host headers (or if that would break the application).
If your ISPs offers multiple IP addresses on xDSL products, can you please reply to me off-list.
Yeah you can't do that with SSL, but you can with TLS if you have RFC4366 support with the servername thing. As for DSL, IPCP doesn't let you negotiate two IP addresses at one end of the link. What you need to do is a single IP address, and then have a /30 routed down to you. Start asking for that and see what happens, you might do a bit better. -- Nathan Ward
