Create a subdomain

A subdomain replaces the IP address with a short name such as myserver.srv.fenixhost.net. You create it in the panel.

Create one​

  1. Open your server in the panel.
  2. Go to Settings in the SERVER group, or click Add a subdomain next to the address on the Console page.
  3. Find the Subdomain section.
  4. Type the name. .srv.fenixhost.net is added for you.
  5. Click Create.

The name must be 3-32 characters: lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens. No capitals, spaces, underscores or other symbols.

Examples: survival, my-smp, play2. If the name is taken, pick another.

Connect with it​

In Minecraft, go to Multiplayer, click Add Server and enter your address, for example myserver.srv.fenixhost.net.

The SERVER ADDRESS card on the Console shows the exact address to share. If it shows a port after the address, players must include it.

Other ways of joining and Bedrock details: Connect to your server. Primary address and ports: Settings.

Tips and common problems​

  • It does not connect. Check that the server is started on the Console, that the name is spelled correctly, and that the address matches the SERVER ADDRESS card. If it still fails, contact support.
  • The name is rejected. Check the rules above, especially lowercase and length.
