Network, ports & subdomain

Every server gets an IP address and port. Minecraft servers also get a free YourName.thost.pl subdomain.

On this page

Server address

You'll find the main address and port in the “Network” tab. Players connect using IP:PORT or the subdomain.

Additional ports

Need a port for Dynmap, BlueMap, Simple Voice Chat or an API? Add a new allocation in the “Network” tab (if your plan allows it) and enter it in the plugin's config.

Your own domain

To let players type mc.yourdomain.com without a port, add an SRV record at your domain registrar:

DNS
# A record
mc.yourdomain.com.       A     SERVER_IP

# SRV record (Minecraft Java)
_minecraft._tcp.mc.yourdomain.com.  SRV  0 5 PORT mc.yourdomain.com.
