    1. **Server Name** **->** Server Name is a local name for a server on your dashboard this is a just an identifier.
    2. **Display Name ->** Display Name is the public name of your minecraft server. This is shown everywhere and on the connection page.
    3. **Subdomain ->** Select your favourite subdomain for your players to visit the connection page for the connection information.
    4. **Protocol ->** Select the protocol of your server. Currently TCP is only available.
    5. **Destination IP ->** Your origin IP where your minecraft server is hosted.
    6. **Destination Port ->** Your origin port where your minecraft server is hosted.
    7. **Maximum Connection Per IP** -> Maximum connection a IP can have to your server. 2 is more than enough for most game servers, If your server requires more than 2 connections simultaneously feel free to increase it.
    8. **Background Image URL ->** URL for the background image on the connection page. Refer to [Player Flow.](player-flow)
