Issue SSL on IP Address

[YouStable]

Hi,

We hosted website on primary IP address and we want SSL on the IP as well but lets not loading with SSL https://173.212.217.49/login.aspx its showing error

Is it possible to secure a Plesk IP address with an SSL certificate (Let's Encrypt / other certificate authorities)

Hello,
IP Address can be secured only using self-signed certificate (will be show browser warning about invalid or insecure certificate, but you can ignore this for sure).
But better solution is delegate a domain to this IP and issue LetsEncrypt certificate which will be valid for all browsers and will not trigger any warnings.

Even self signed SSL is not working on this URL

Can you open Domains > Your domain > Hosting Settings and check that SSL/TLS support checkbox is enabled under Security section?

That should be on IP not domain name

I am quite sure that this will not/never work unless you are using a dedicated IP address for this site.

Having never used Plesk on Windows/IIS myself (but beeing quite versed in both these worlds otherwise), I cannot verify that at the moment, BUT:

If you don't use/assign a dedicated IP for this site, Plesk simply does/can not add a corresponding https binding (with no host header and SNI checkbox set) to the IIS configuration of that site.
But this would be a requirement to enable IP based SSL connections on Windows/IIS, so I don't see a way

Well in the most cases self signed SSL works like a charm. Maybe try re-configuring everything. (But it's going to take some time depending on your project, so try everything)
