SSL question | Working for domain name and not for IP

Hi all,

I set up SSL just fine, works for my domains in Virtualmin, but I noticed one thing, when I use the dedicated server ip to access webmin/virtualmin, it shows invalid certificate, although is issued to one of my domains and by Let's Encrypt.

Did I miss something when generating the certificates?

Thanks!

Quote from stack exchange.... An SSL certificate is typically issued to a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) such as "https://www.domain.com". However, some organizations need an SSL certificate issued to a public IP address. This option allows you to specify a public IP address as the Common Name in your Certificate Signing Request
