I have a virtual Mikrotik at a host company.
I want to buy 5 IPs from that company and be able to use them on my home server.
Example:
Host Mikrotik: 188.X.X.62
Home IP: 217.X.X.178
Ip that I want to be able to use on my home servers.
188.X.X.62
188.X.X.63
188.X.X.64
188.X.X.65
188.X.X.66
Is this for just a few select TCP/UDP ports, or do you rather want redirect/forward much more traffic to your home server(s)?
If your home IP(s) is/are really static then that’s an advantage, but then one wonders why you need the IPs from the hoster?
Because you could just enter your static home IP in a public DNS (ie. registering a domain at a DNS provider and using your home IP for the domain), and ready you are.
If your home IP is dynamic, then you could use DynDNS service, but in that case you cannot use some own public server applications like SMTP server (mail server) and own public DNS server as these require static IPs.
Hey, emanuel95. I wanted to do the same way as you want to do now and I can say that it’s worth using dedicated servers because they have good specifications so you won’t have any issues at all. I read some posts on a lot of forums and users advised me to use other servers, I used Google in order to find a suitable variant, I didn’t have much money so I was looking for something else. I found the site, while I was browsing a forum (not this one), it’s said that where you can get cheap dedicated servers. I’ve been using it for 3 months and I can say these servers are cheaper because the minimal price of a dedicated server on this site cost 50$ but on other sites, we will have the same servers but they are more expensive.
