How-To: Add more IP addresses for use in IIS

While adding new websites via IIS to our development server, I ran out of "unasigned" IP addresses. I used the steps below to add additional IP addresses to this Windows 2003 server.

  1. Go to the Start Menu
  2. Select Control Panel
  3. Right-click Network Connections and select Properties
  4. Right-click Select Local Area Connection and select Properties
  5. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
  6. Click Properties
  7. Click Advanced
  8. Under IP Addresses, add as many as you want.

IIS should pickup the list as soon as you apply the changes. Even if IIS does not pick them up you can manually type any of the newly added addresses into the IIS dialog.

Thanks to Chris Crowe for posting this solution in Google Groups.
