In your VPN, you can manage whitelists for specific domains like Google and YouTube. For server IPs, you may need to use the IP address directly in your settings rather than relying on domain-based rules. The error about a "correct domain name" suggests the system expects a valid domain format, but IP addresses work differently. You might try entering the IP manually or checking if your VPN supports IP-based whitelisting.

A website functions as an IP address. You can verify its location within Canada by checking its country classification.

I understand why you're confused. The server is located in the US, so I'll attempt your solution and reply in one second. Thanks.

I attempted with and without the port, but it didn't work. The country is configured as the U.S.

It seems the system only recognizes domain names, not IP addresses, even though high-quality software shouldn’t care about that.

There are alternatives available. You can configure your VPN settings to prioritize specific services like Skype and Steam, while still allowing game servers to be whitelisted for better performance.

Only by linking a domain name to that IP address can the system function properly. The server owner must handle this assignment.

Looking for alternative VPN options with less restriction? You might want something that supports app and IP address whitelisting.

I don't usually rely on VPNs, so I wouldn't be familiar with them.
