Manually configuring IPs and domains is incredibly complicated, but cPanel &amp; WHM\u2019s web interface makes light work of everyday web server administration tasks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019re going to explore four aspects of IP and domain name management:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Adding a new IP address and redirecting it to a domain.<\/li><li>Adding a new domain in cPanel.<\/li><li>Configuring domain redirects in cPanel.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Configuring domain forwarding in WHM.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To finish off, we\u2019ll show you how to flush operating system DNS caches, solving a problem that frustrates many users when they change IP and domain configurations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Redirect a New IP to a Domain in cPanel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons you might add a new IP address to your server. You may want to give a cPanel user or reseller a static IP address or allow a site to operate from a dedicated address.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To add an IP address to a web server, you need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>&nbsp;Access to its root account; we\u2019ll be working in WHM.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A new IP address from your hosting provider. They will set up their network to associate the IP with the server.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>First, we\u2019re going to let cPanel &amp; WHM know about the IP address so it can configure the server and make the IP available for use with websites and other services.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigate to <em>Add a New IP Address <\/em>under <em>IP Functions <\/em>in the WHM sidebar menu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/00-cpanel-add-new-ip-address.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60597\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter the new IP address and a subnet mask. If you don\u2019t know which subnet mask to enter, ask your hosting provider. The mask indicates which part of the address is used for the network and which part for devices on that network. It differs depending on the host\u2019s configuration, but every IP on your server should use the same subnet mask.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <em>Submit <\/em>to finish. If you make a mistake, you can delete the new address in <em>Show or Delete Current IP Addresses.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now the address is added, you can associate it with hosting and reseller accounts or individual websites. We\u2019ll show you how to change an existing site\u2019s IP address to the new one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open the <em>List Accounts <\/em>page from the <em>Account Information <\/em>submenu.&nbsp; Choose the account associated with the domain you want to change and click the \u201c+\u201d next to the domain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/01-cpanel-change-site-address.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60605\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Click the <em>Change IP Address <\/em>button, and then select the IP we just added from the drop-down menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/02-cpanel-select-new-site-ip.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60609\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Changing the site\u2019s IP will make it unavailable at its old IP, and should expect it to appear offline for some time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Add a New Domain to cPanel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding a new domain is a more common task than adding an IP address, so let\u2019s look at how you can do it in less than a minute with cPanel. We\u2019re assuming you have already purchased your domain from a registrar and that your account\u2019s DNS servers are correctly configured. You can learn more about DNS server configuration in <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/how-to-configure-dns-nameservers-with-cpanel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Configure DNS Nameservers with cPanel<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/the-dns-zone-for-beginners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The DNS Zone For Beginners<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;First, open the <em>Domains <\/em>page in cPanel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/03-cpanel-domains.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60613\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <em>Create a New Domain.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/04-cpanel-create-a-new-domain.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60617\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter the domain name and a document root for the site\u2019s files. The default document root is shared between this domain and the account\u2019s main domain, but you can choose any other directory under your home directory.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/05-new-domain-details.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60621\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <em>Submit<\/em>, and you\u2019re done! You can now go ahead and create your new site.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Configuring Domain Redirects in cPanel &amp; WHM<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve explored redirecting IPs to domains and adding new domains, but what if you want to redirect one domain to another? This is a frequent request when, for example, a brand changes its domain but doesn\u2019t want its old links to break.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Domain Redirect Codes Explained<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we get to configuring redirects, it\u2019s helpful to understand the two main types and their impact on browsers and search engines. When a web client requests a redirected page, the server sends a response that includes the page\u2019s new URL and an HTTP status code.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_HTTP_status_codes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dozens of status codes<\/a>, but we\u2019re interested in those beginning with \u201c3\u201d because they indicate redirection. Although there are several 3xx codes, most of the time, you\u2019ll choose either 301 or 302.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A <strong>301 redirect <\/strong>means the page has moved permanently. It prompts HTTP clients such as browsers and search engine crawlers to update their caches.&nbsp;<\/li><li>A <strong>302 redirect <\/strong>means \u201cFound,\u201d but it\u2019s most often used to tell HTTP clients the page has moved temporarily. The page isn\u2019t available at the old URL now, but it might be in the future, so there\u2019s no need to update caches.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be wondering why \u201cFound\u201d is used for \u201cMoved Temporarily,\u201d especially when there is also a <strong>307 Moved Temporarily<\/strong> code that says what it means.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is debate in the SEO world about the relative merits of these codes, but the consensus is that 302 should be used when the URL changes temporarily; browsers and web crawlers understand it to mean that, even if it isn\u2019t explicit. A 307 code is, for the most part, interpreted in the same way, but there are fringe cases, so it\u2019s better to stick with 302.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Configure Domain Redirects in cPanel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can redirect an entire domain or just individual pages, but we\u2019ll focus on redirecting everyone who visits the domain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/06-cpanel-redirects.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60625\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In cPanel, select <em>Redirects <\/em>from the <em>Domains <\/em>section of the main page menu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/07-cpanel-configure-redirect.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60629\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the <em>Redirects <\/em>page, select <em>Permanent (301) <\/em>or <em>Temporary (302) <\/em>from the first dropdown menu. From the second dropdown, choose the domain you wish to redirect. If we were redirecting a page, we\u2019d enter the path in the following field, but we can leave it blank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, add the new destination domain, including the protocol (https:\/\/), in the <em>Redirects to <\/em>field and click <em>Add<\/em>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the most straightforward case, that\u2019s all you need to do, but there are also options to configure how the \u201cwww\u201d subdomain is treated and a <em>Wild Card Redirect <\/em>option, which will redirect all of a site\u2019s pages to the same URL.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Configure Domain Forwarding in WHM<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In most circumstances, you should use cPanel\u2019s domain redirection functionality to create 301 and 302 redirects, but you can also forward domains in WHM. Forwarding is often used to temporarily redirect visitors while a site undergoes maintenance, and it behaves differently from the redirects we\u2019ve already looked at.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas redirection is carried out on the client\u2014the browser is given the information it needs to load the page\u2014forwarding is a server-side operation; it\u2019s invisible from the browser\u2019s perspective because it\u2019s handled by the server and the domain name system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <em>WHM <\/em>sidebar menu, select <em>Setup\/Edit Domain Forwarding <\/em>under <em>Domain Functions.&nbsp; <\/em>Click the <em>Click to Create <\/em>button and then the <em>Set Up Forwarders <\/em>button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/08-cpanel-create-domain-forwarder.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60633\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>Domain Forwarding <\/em>interface is straightforward. Add the domains you would like to forward in the left column and the destination domain in the right column. When you\u2019re done, click <em>Save Map.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/09-whm-configure-domain-forwarder.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60637\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to setting up the domain forwarder, you must also ensure that the domain resolves to the IP address displayed at the top of the setup page. You can make sure it does by checking and, if necessary, editing the domain\u2019s A record. You can do this in WHM\u2019s <em>DNS<\/em> <em>Zone Manager<\/em>, as described in <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.cpanel.net\/whm\/dns-functions\/setup-edit-domain-forwarding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our documentation<\/a>, or in your domain registrar\u2019s DNS record editor if you are using their nameservers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Flush Your Operating System\u2019s DNS Cache<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you edit domain records or change IP addresses, you may find that you can no longer access a site on the server. Instead of loading the site\u2019s pages, you get a 404 \u201cNot Found\u201d error. That may be because the DNS record changes haven\u2019t propagated, but it can also be caused by stale entries in your operating system\u2019s DNS cache.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DNS records change infrequently, and it takes time to make a request to domain name servers. It\u2019s often quicker to make a DNS request and cache the results for a while. That way, the domain\u2019s IP address can be read from the cache, which is much faster than getting it from a DNS server across the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you make a change and the DNS record no longer matches your cache, you won\u2019t be able to load the site. On most operating systems, it\u2019s straightforward to clear the cache, forcing the OS to get fresh data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Microsoft<\/strong><strong><sup>\u00ae <\/sup><\/strong><strong>Windows 10<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Launch the command prompt by entering \u201ccmd\u201d in the start menu search box, right-clicking on <em>Command Prompt, <\/em>and selecting <em>Run as Administrator. <\/em>Enter the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>ipconfig \/flushdns <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>All being well, you\u2019ll see the message: \u201cWindows IP configuration successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>macOS<\/strong><strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On OS X Yosemite and later, open your preferred terminal emulator or type \u201cterminal\u201d into Spotlight.
