By enabling the <strong>Anonymized IPs<\/strong> feature, you can protect your players&#8217; data by masking their full IP addresses in your server logs and public records. This is a great way to comply with privacy standards and provide a safer environment for your community. On the GGServers panel, toggling this feature is quick and easy. Follow the steps below to hide IPs on your Dune 2000 server.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Stop Your Server<\/h3>\n<p>Before modifying any privacy or connection settings, you must first stop the server. Log in to your <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\/\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>, locate your Dune 2000 instance, and click the red <strong>Stop<\/strong> button. Wait for the status indicator to turn red before proceeding.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"121\" height=\"56\" class=\"wp-image-17502\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop The Server\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png 121w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-50x23.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-60x28.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-100x46.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 121px) 100vw, 121px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ensure the server is stopped to apply privacy changes safely.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Navigate to Server Settings<\/h3>\n<p>On the left-hand sidebar of your dashboard, click on <strong>Server Settings<\/strong>.
