I did not program this mod and can not provide any support.
The original coder was: ibautocommunity
He marked this as "resuable code" so I have re-uploaded it so someone might find this and further develop it.
If you can develop this please include credit to the original author- I didn't change anything but the version number and thread URL so I need no credit.
Please release updates on vBulletin.org for the benefit of the community.
Thank You.
PS. According to vBulletin you MUST have a separate license for each domain with unique content so this mod does not allow you to make multiple sites for free.
Use at your own risk. I do not even have this installed on my own site but it has been reported to work with 3.7.x, 3.8.x and 4.0.x versions... Make sure you make backups before testing on a live site.
This info was from the original post when this mod was released:

NOTES:
We didn't have any plans to ever release this product; but lots of people expressed interest in having this feature. We are releasing the product as is, it's very basic but has proven to work rather well on vB 3.8 and also happens to work on 4.0. We do not have plans to expand this product or continue development - we do encourage anyone interested to use the code to continue developing the product. For example, it does not currently provide any support for displaying different CMS based on the domain settings, but that could be a pretty cool feature! Sorry, but no support will be provided for this product; this is ideal for all the do-it-yourselfers on vB.org and may not be the best product for the beginners!
What this product does:
This product will allow you to use 1 vBulletin installation and admin control panel for what will look like "different" vBulletin forums and domains. For example, domain-x.com has it's own style + forum categories; domain-y.com also has it's own style + forum categories; but they use the same vBulletin installation and control panel. It also has options to customize vBAdvanced (if you have it) and limit the search results to the specific domain.
What this product does NOT do:
This product will not allow you to get around vBulletin licensing; you will need a separate license for each domain.
How does this work?
The product detects custom domains and sub-domains; once detected, it shows a predefined style and forumid range to the users. This makes it look like you have two or more different vBulletin sites.
INSTALL AND CONFIG:
* Please note that you will have to already have the hosts configured before adding them into the configuration in vBulletin. Talk to your web-hosting provider to make sure your new domains and sub-domains actually resolve and work.
Install XML in product manager
Go to vB Options or vB Settings and find IB Facades options

As you can see this mod was originally released by Internet Brands.
It would appear this mod would need to be modified to add an option for a VBSEO licence for each domain- but since I don't have VBSEO I can't help with that.
"main ip" ? Both (or all) sites need to be on the same server so their IP addresses would be the same.... you need to "park" additional domains on your main account.
However under normal use you shouldn't have to worry about- or see- the IP address.
