# Using IP

## Using IP Address

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you are not issuing **SSL** on the domain through the **server** (**Let's Encrypt** or other options), it is highly recommended to set the **A record** through **Cloudflare**; otherwise, there simply won’t be an SSL certificate for the domain.
{% endhint %}

***

### Creating an A Record

In the control panel for the desired domain, open the "DNS Settings" section, then click "Create Record" and select the type A record.
