I'd like to setup my moodle instance to be available by address: http://mymoodle.mysite.com.

mysite.com is already registered and I can easily access it because I've configured it at my hosting provider to refer to the IP (let's say IP address x.x.x.x) of my server where I store my web page. To register the subdomain I'm specifying another IP address where my moodle instance is installed (e.g. y.y.y.y) and configure my provider to do permanent redirect to the URL http://y.y.y.y

moodle instance is installed at wwwroot folder of the web sever, it's accessible via http://y.y.y.y

Now it works for me in the following way: I type http://mymoodle.mysite.com in address bar of my browser and it redirects me to my moodle instance, I see a main screen, all works fine but the URL in address bar is changed to http://y.y.y.y

Alhtough I'd like to see my fancy subdomain address but not IP.

My config.php originally looks like that $CFG->wwwroot = 'http://y.y.y.y';

but if I change it to $CFG->wwwroot = 'http://mymoodle.mysite.com'; I'm getting into 'endless redirects'. Is there a way to resolve this issue and get rid of IP address in address bar?

If you have changed the url of Moodle after the set-up you have to follow those steps : https://docs.moodle.org/310/en/Moodle_migration. Only updating $CFG->wwwroot will not be ok.
