You shouldn't use IP's when a named domain or subdomain is available..
It negates the use of the DNS service, which is a fundamental of internet operability.
One of the most important uses of domain naming is to enable the host to change their addresses or locations transparently.

I wouldn't suggest offering an IP in this sort of configuration issue.
