Enable an extension

Extensions

Choose the Alpacon extensions you need:

  • IP: manage IP and DHCP settings (Enterprise)
  • DNS: translate domain names to IP addresses (Enterprise)
  • Proxy: control and configure proxy servers (Enterprise)
  • Private SSL: manage private SSL certificates (Enterprise)
  • Package mirrors: distribute and manage package mirrors (Enterprise)
  • Power control: monitor and control power settings (Enterprise)
  • Metrics: turn on server charts (CPU, memory, disk, disk I/O, network) and metric alert rules (Essentials and Enterprise); see Monitor server status for what it unlocks

DNS and Proxy require IP. In the console, turning on either also turns on IP and locks its switch. Turn off DNS and Proxy before turning off IP. An API request that enables either without IP, or disables IP while either remains on, is refused with HTTP 400 and workspace_extension_requires_extension.

While an extension is off, its API requests are refused too, not just hidden from the menu.

Free plans can’t enable any extension.
