How to Use the Dedicated IP Address with “SFTP”

In this guide, we have explained how to use the dedicated IP address with SFTP. If your cPanel account is configured with a dedicated IP address, you will have the capability to send emails using that dedicated IP and have Apache use it for your site.

Let us follow the procedure:

1. Here is an example of the ‘sftp’ command that you can use to send its outbound connection from a dedicated IP address on a cPanel server.
   1. In this example, we will assume you want to use the ‘shared’ cPanel IP-
      sftp [email protected]
   2. In our second example, we will assume you want to use the ‘dedicated’ account IP-
      sftp -o BindAddress=dedicated-IP [email protected]
2. Substitute ‘dedicated-IP’ with the dedicated IP address of the cPanel account.

In this manner, you can use the dedicated IP address with “SFTP”. Hope you liked our article. For help, do contact our technical support staff.
