Domain Control Validation for external IP addresses
In order to request an SSL certificate and verify that you own a specific public IP address, Domain Control Validation (DCV) must be performed on every IP address .
IP address DCV can only be completed by using HTTP/HTTPS CSR Hash method.
DCV Emails or DNS CNAME records are not accepted for IP address DCV.
If additional information on performing DCV using HTTP/HTTPS CSR Hash, please refer to the section of HTTP/HTTPS in the following articles:
