Many VPS providers still ship a single IPv4 address. Some charge extra for a second. LogicWeb’s KVM plans include two IPv4 addresses even on the smallest size. That choice is deliberate.
Why two addresses remain useful
- One address for the primary service, one for a staging environment, a mail path, or a clean IP when reputation problems appear.
- The ability to move a service to the second IP without waiting for a new allocation or a support ticket.
- Simpler separation of roles when an application and a management interface both need public reachability.
In an era of IPv4 scarcity, including the second address at no extra cost is a concrete differentiator. It also reduces the number of tickets that begin with “I need another IP and I need it today.”
The rest of the plan
KVM virtualization, NVMe storage, root access, and Linux templates in six cities. The two IPv4 addresses sit on top of that base. Customers who run persistent agents, mail, or multiple services notice the difference immediately. Customers who only need a single static site may never use the second address; they still benefit from the policy that does not nickel-and-dime the basics.
The broader IPv4 context
Leasing additional space is always possible. Having two usable addresses on the VPS itself removes friction for the common cases. Combined with a host that also leases larger blocks and understands LOAs and RPKI, the customer has a clear path from a small VPS to larger network needs without changing providers.
