So, okay I want to only accept requests from my web host to my server, I only want to allow either my servers domain name, or my servers ip my server also uses cloudflare.

So I only want to grant access to one or more of my servers & using CloudFlare at the same time, how might this be approached?

You can use the $_SERVER variable, using SERVER_NAME;

$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];

As described in the documentation:

'SERVER_NAME' The name of the server host under which the current script is executing. If the script is running on a virtual host, this will be the value defined for that virtual host.

You are, however, reliant on a server config file (httpd.conf) to achieve this.

<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName example.com
    UseCanonicalName on
</VirtualHost>

The UseCanonicalName directive seems to be on to solve a known bug (More).
