DirectAdmin changing main server IP address - anjana - 07-01-2021

In DirectAdmin, How can I change my servers main ip address without causing much downtime? For example, currently my DirectAdmin servers DA licensed main ip is 1.1.1.1 and my ISP assigned another ip 2.2.2.2 as my new main ip for the server( and DirectAdmin license transfered to new ip ).

How to properly change from old ip address to new ip address in DirectAdmin?

Reboot the server and running ipswap.sh script to replace the old server IP (1.1.1.1 ) with the new server IP (2.2.2.2) should be enough.
