Set IP addresses for load balancing and failover backup hosting

If your website is hosted on multiple servers with more than one public IP address, or if your website has a backup IP address in case of technical trouble, you can easily configure the firewall to use these IP addresses in the Website Security Firewall's dashboard.

  1. Go to your GoDaddy product page.
  2. Next to Website Security and Backups, select Manage All.
  3. Under Firewall, select Details.
  4. Select Settings.
  5. Select Hosting IP Address.

Next, add multiple hosting IP addresses for load balancing or add backup IP addresses as an emergency failover.

  1. Select Hosting from the drop-down menu.
  2. Enter the IP and select Add Address.
  1. Select Backup from the drop-down menu.
  2. Enter the IP and select Add Address.
