If for example you want to use 2 different IPs for different lists, then you can create multiple IP pools in Sparkpost and allocate one IP in each IP pool. And then simple simply setup more than one Sparkpost connection in Ongage with the same API credentials, but with different IP Pool values.
You can you create IP pools by going into Configuration > IP pools and then allocate an IP to the IP pool.
You may also want to allocate a specified sending domain to send from dedicated IP pool to make sure that the emails from Ongage connection always goes through the linked IP pool and respective domain only.
