Your IP Address is:

- 38.103.63.18 -

An IP address is a numeric value that is used to uniquely identify your computer from the millions of other computers that are connected to the Internet. This number consists of four 'octets' separated by periods. Each 'octet' is a numeric value in the range of 0 to 255.

For your protection, some services hosted by EPI Internet Direct are classified as secure 'Restricted Access' services and require you to register the above IP address with us before you can gain administrative access to the server or servers that are being used to host your service. This applies to many of our SQL Server, Microsoft Commerce Server, Small Business Server, BizTalk Server and certain other specialized services. It does not apply to web sites, FTP sites or other services hosted through open protocols.

Most clients require only one or two IP address registrations, but our policies permit you to register up to five IP addresses without incurring a surcharge. There is no cost to add or change IP addresses should this be necessary.

Note to DSL and Cable Modem Users

Most people using DSL and cable modems are assigned an Internet IP address by their Internet Service Provider. In most cases this IP address will only change if your ISP reconfigures their network or if you replace a router or, if you are not using a router, your workstation or your workstations network card.

Note to Dial-Up Users

Typically, IP addresses assigned to dial-up users change each time you use your dial-up modem. If you are a dial-up customer that requires access to a secure service then you will need to request an 'open' gateway. Only a registered customer or their authorized agent may request this change and not all services classified by EPI as 'Restricted Access' are available through an open gateway without surcharges.

Contact your EPI representative if you require your service to be hosted through an open gateway.
