It allows you to connect to the server without any extra numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if your IP is 192.168.0.1 and the port is 25572, the only way to connect to this server is by entering the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/3c149626-e7d4-4ae3-b538-4ad78a_9n0gjz.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If your server&#8217;s port is 25565, you don&#8217;t need any more numbers, you can just connect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/80ef8854-d5a8-450e-bf2f-6127cc_1fkafo5.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-ht-blocks-messages wp-block-hb-message wp-block-hb-message--withicon is-style-alert\">You can do the same thing with a domain\/URL using <a href=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/article\/how-to-use-a-custom-domain-url-with-your-server-using-namecheap\/?1564715995629\">Namecheap<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/article\/how-to-use-a-custom-domain-url-with-your-server-using-godaddy\/?1564715995629\">Godaddy<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/article\/how-to-use-a-custom-domain-url-with-your-server-using-google-domains\/?1564715995629\">Google Domains<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2753 What Is the Purpose of a Dedicated IP \u2753<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>A dedicated IP allows you to have a shorter and easier address to connect to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a dedicated IP is also ideal for setting up a domain or subdomain like <code>mysite.com<\/code>.

Once you have a domain, you must point your desired connection address to your Minecraft server IP using an A-Record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not own a domain, we also offer you the option to assign a subdomain using one of our domains free of charge.
