Can anyone confirm if requesting a dedicated IP will enable the option in CPanel to access the SSL/TLS Manager? It's missing, so I was wondering. This is for their Linux Premium hosting package as listed here : https://www.webafrica.co.za/hosting/#specifcations

They have the Dedicated IP address (per month) for R50 per IP address on the product info page, however nowhere in their customer zone panel is an option to add the service as "add-on" / "upgrade" / "new service".
 
Let me guess they taking forever to answer your ticket question?
 
Hi,

The SSL/TLS manager is turned on from root side in WHM under the Feature Manager.
If you are not seeing it in your cpanel client area, it means they have disabled it in WHM.

You also don't need to have a dedicated IP in order to use an SSL certificate, cPanel has full SNI support (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication) to allow multiple SSL's to work off the same shared IP address.
 
What Murmaider said. With SNI it's no longer necessary to have a dedi IP for SSLs. Don't waste money on it.
