How to access a domain by IP address in Plesk

Question

How to access a domain using the IP address instead of the domain name like http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx?

Answer

To specify which website will open when users refer to the web resource on your server by an IP address:

1. Open Plesk > Tools & Settings/Server Settings > IP addresses > <domain_ip>> Default site .
   All sites hosted on this IP will be listed.

2. Click on the address assigned to the website and select the Default site from the drop-down list.

   

   Note: The default server page will be shown if the Default site option is set to None

Additionally, it is possible to set the default domain using the command line. Connect to the server via RDP and execute the following:

C:\> plesk bin subscription_settings --set-default example.com
