Configuring a virtual host

About this task

The virtual host is the external-facing portion of a web application. In a gateway deployment, the virtual host contains the host name and port that your users use to reach the protected web application.

For more information about this procedure, including optional steps that aren’t included here, see Creating new virtual hosts.

Steps

  1. Click Applications, then go to Applications > Virtual Hosts.

  2. Click Add Virtual Host.

  3. In the Host field, enter the name for the virtual host.

    This is the host name used by end users to reach the site, such as myHost.com.

    You can use a wildcard (*) for part or all of the host name. For example, *.example.com matches all host names ending in .example.com, and * matches all host names.

  4. In the Port field, enter the port number for the virtual host, such as 443.

  5. Click Save.
