Error 1034 - Edge IP Restriction Cause and Solution

The Cloudflare team has responded to this issue, and stated that the hostnames landing on an IP address will be validated to ensure they are linked to the same account in their systems, to prevent misconfiguration and potential abuse.

If you have been using 1.1.1.1 as a placeholder, you will have to change it to the reserved addresses 192.0.2.0 (IPv4) or 100:: (IPv6).
