Frequently asked questions
What is a bare metal server?
A bare metal server is a physical server dedicated exclusively to your business, providing full access to its resources without sharing with other customers. This setup delivers superior performance, security, and reliability for your workloads.
How can I modify my server’s hardware configuration?
To upgrade RAM, replace storage, or make other hardware changes, simply contact us. We will recommend the best solution based on your requirements.
How many IPv4/IPv6 addresses will I receive?
You can configure multiple dedicated public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, depending on your specific needs.
Do you support private networks?
Yes, we offer private networking between bare metal servers and virtual machines. There is no additional charge for creating private networks or for internal traffic.
Do you offer DDoS protection?
Yes, we provide robust DDoS protection to defend your servers from attacks. We offer several protection levels. Basic protection includes always-on DDoS protection for all servers, including defense against reflection attacks (DNS, NTP, etc.). A 5 Gbps traffic threshold automatically triggers IP address blocking for 12 hours. Advanced protection offers customizable protection settings for more advanced DDoS defense. Visit our DDoS Protection page for full details.
Do you offer a free trial, and what happens when my trial ends?
Yes, you can contact our sales team for a free trial. After your trial expires, your account will automatically switch to the standard pay-as-you-go plan unless you select another option.
Can I get custom pricing for my bare metal servers?
Custom pricing is available for large orders or if you prepay for 12+ months. Contact us for more information about tailored pricing.
Which operating systems can I install on my server?
By default, we offer a variety of operating systems, including Ubuntu, CentOS, and Windows Server. These OS options are available for easy auto-reinstallation through the control panel or API. You can also upload and install your own OS images.
How long will it take to deploy my bare metal server?
Standard in-stock configurations deploy within 15–20 minutes. For tailored configurations, deployment times vary. Please contact us for an estimated installation date.
Do you provide IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) access?
