# Setting up virtual hosts

Each virtual host can optionally have its own respective Apache agent configuration.

## About this task

If no custom configuration is provided, a virtual host uses the agent configuration from the base server.

## Steps

* If you want to use this feature, add the following to the Apache `httpd.conf` file in the virtual host context:

  ```none
  PingFederateConfigurationFile conf/mod_pf_vhost.conf
  ```

  In this example, `mod_pf_vhost.conf` is an agent configuration file that contains settings unique to the virtual host. PingFederate attributes from the base server configuration aren't merged with the virtual host when the `PingFederateConfigurationFile` attribute is specified for the virtual host.
