MSSQL Credential TLS Error #37675

Describe the problem/error/question

When setting up MSSQL credentials with TLS enabled I receive a connection error on a node.js warning. If we have to use a name server, should we be provided an input to set a name server?

What is the error message (if any)?

Failed to connect to [DB IP]:1433 - The property 'options.servername' Setting the TLS ServerName to an IP address is not permitted.. Received '[DB IP]'
