SSL for login using server IP
« on: October 03, 2018, 08:36:33 AM »
I am new to this panel and this question may have been already asked but I was unable to find it.

I am trying to secure my log in.   When I logged in to my control panel and i am recieving a certificate error for the SSL.

I have a SSL installed on the domain directed to a domain assigned to the IP address itself but when im logging in to the administration panel using the IP address like this:

Code: [Select]
https://www.123.456.789.12:2031
and log in,  it dosent have the ssl working to protect the administrator or user server logins and im getting a certificate error.


Also I found this error on the SSL checker while running the FQSDN

Quote
None of the common names in the certificate match the name that was entered (server1.broadcastmedia.co). You may receive an error when accessing this site in a web browser. Learn more about name mismatch errors.




how can i secure my login to the server IP address?
I also found this in my search but its outdated.

SSL is only for domains not for ip.
