Accessing standard website directly via IP

Hi, I need help.

I have a server installed with cyberpanel and ols.

How do I ensure that anyone who accesses the IP is shown the default website?

mywebsite.com → public_html
direct access to 5.161.55.10 → shows public_html from mywebsite.com

but I don’t know how to do it in ols or cyberpanel.
