What are reasons to use a certificate for an IP? Why wouldn't you use a name?
Someone already mentioned that it's needed for Discovery of Designated Resolvers (DDR) for DNS-over-HTTPS. Anything else?
- abrookewood 2y agoNames cost cash; maybe you don't need/want one.
- extraduder_ire 2y agoxip and https://nip.io https://nip.io are common workarounds for this. I can't remember if one or both are in the mozilla list of public domain prefixes though.
- extraduder_ire 2y agoIf you need https, but whatever device you want to serve to doesn't let you use hostnames.
