A dedicated IP address is the permanent designation of a single and unchanging IP address for a website which is provided by an internet service provider (ISP) or a network administrator.
IP addresses is shared by most internet sites and nodes to cut down on the number of IP addresses. A dedicated IP address is typically used only by a website that needs Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) verification. End users will often have a choice between using a shared IP address or a static IP address by using a virtual private network (VPN) software.
The VPN provider allots the same shared IP address to all the users connected to a VPN server with a shared IP address, providing the end user some anonymity. Customers also have the option to request a dedicated IP from the VPN providers in contrast to a shared IP address. This means they will get a unique, static IP address that is used exclusively by while hiding their real IP address.
Lower downtime, complete control of the server, email services and business identity, private SSL certificate, secure remote access, and access to an FTP server are some of the benefits of using a dedicated IP.
Companies must evaluate the requirements while selecting the IP address and choose the solution depending on the business to get the maximum out of an IP.
