• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Cloudflare/Plesk with home server

Daveo

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Debian 12.10
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.68 #2
How do I setup Cloudflare DNS with Plesk and only allow access to the webserver & Plesk panel via internal computers only (my home network only).

In Plesk, currently have the following...

For all domains/subdomains....
Domain > Hosting/DNS > Apache & nginx
Deny access to the site: *
Excluding: 192.168.x.0/24

For Plesk panel...
Tools & Settings > IP Access Restriction Management
Denied from the networks that are not listed
127.0.0.1
192.168.x.0
<My external IP address>

Above settings allows Plesk & webserver to only be accessed internally (within my home network).
 
Is your Plesk server within your network? If not, you won't reach your server with the internal IP address. Your router will perform NAT and you will reach the Plesk server with your public (dynamic) IPv4 address.
 
Yes, the Plesk server is within my network.

Also, my external IPv4 address is static not dynamic.
