<p><b>sslip.io</b> combines a wildcard DNS matched with a valid wildcard SSL certificate and key to provide trusted SSL connections.</p> </div>
<h2>How it works <h3>What is it?</h3>
</h2> <p><b>sslip.io</b> is a special DNS domain (sslip.io) that maps crafted hostnames
<p class="lead">Your server's fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) is a mash-up of your server's IP address and the <b>sslip.io</b> domain. Here are some examples:</p> to IP addresses (e.g. <i>192-168-0-1.sslip.io</i> maps to IP address <i>192.168.0.1</i>). Combined
with a valid wildcard SSL certificate, it provides trusted SSL connections to your webserver,
your docker registry, etc....</p>
<h3>How do I use it?
</h3>
<p class="lead">First, use your server's IP address to determine its sslip.io hostname.</p>
<p>Your server's sslip.io is a mash-up of your server's IP address and the <b>sslip.io</b> domain. Here are some examples:</p>

Technical limitation: All FQDNs <i>must</i> be a one-level deep subdomain on the sslip.io domain for proper SSL validation.
</p>
<p>For example: www.127-0-0-1.sslip.io will not work, but www-127-0-0-1.sslip.io will. This is a <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26744696/ssl-multilevel-subdomain-wildcard">limitation
of the wildcard SSL certificate</a>, not a limitation of the sslip.io DNS server; e.g. when queried with the hostname "sf.ca.usa.172-16-1.2.sslip.io", the DNS server will return an IP address of 172.16.1.12).</p>
