SOLVED Redirect to Hostname

[History73]

Hello,
i want redirect
https://myserverip (with or without port 2087)
to

https://myhostname:2087

This cannot be done by Tweak Settings-->Redirection.

This is fairly easily done by adding a rewrite rule for http (connections over port 80). You'd want to add this in WHM>>Server Configuration>>Apache Configuration -> Include Editor -> PreVirtualHost Include

I added the following to successfully redirect navigating to http://<MyIPAddress> to https://server.mydomain.tld:2087

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^12\.34\.56\.78$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://server.mydomain.tld:2087$1 [L,R=301]

It's not as easily done for connections over https. The problem being that by default when you navigate to https://IPAddress on an Apache server it's behavior is to pull up the first SSL VirtualHost in the configuration with a valid SSL on that IP address.
