<h2><a name="purename" id="purename">Running several name-based web
    sites on a single IP address.</a></h2>

    <p>Your server has multiple hostnames that resolve to a single address,
    and you want to respond differently for <code>www.example.com</code>
    and <code>www.example.org</code>.</p>

    <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3><p>Creating virtual
          host configurations on your Apache server does not magically
          cause DNS entries to be created for those host names. You
          <em>must</em> have the names in DNS, resolving to your IP
          address, or nobody else will be able to see your web site. You
          can put entries in your <code>hosts</code> file for local
          testing, but that will work only from the machine with those
          <code>hosts</code> entries.</p>
    </div>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config"># Ensure that Apache listens on port 80
Listen 80
&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example1"
    ServerName www.example.com

    # Other directives here
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example2"
    ServerName www.example.org

    # Other directives here
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>The asterisks match all addresses, so the main server serves no
    requests. Due to the fact that the virtual host with
    <code>ServerName www.example.com</code> is first
    in the configuration file, it has the highest priority and can be seen
    as the <cite>default</cite> or <cite>primary</cite> server. That means
    that if a request is received that does not match one of the specified
    <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#servername">ServerName</a></code> directives, it will be served by this first
    <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#virtualhost">&lt;VirtualHost&gt;</a></code>.</p>

    <p>The above configuration is what you will want to use in almost
    all name-based virtual hosting situations. The only thing that this
    configuration will not work for, in fact, is when you are serving
    different content based on differing IP addresses or ports.</p>

    <div class="note">
            <h3>Note</h3>

           <p>You may replace <code>*</code> with a specific IP address
           on the system.  Such virtual hosts will only be used for
           HTTP requests received on connection to the specified IP
           address.</p>

           <p>However, it is additionally useful to use <code>*</code>
           on systems where the IP address is not predictable - for
           example if you have a dynamic IP address with your ISP, and
           you are using some variety of dynamic DNS solution. Since
           <code>*</code> matches any IP address, this configuration
           would work without changes whenever your IP address
           changes.</p>

    <div class="note">
      <h3>Note</h3>
      <p>Any of the techniques discussed here can be extended to any
      number of IP addresses.</p>
    </div>

    <p>The server has two IP addresses. On one (<code>172.20.30.40</code>), we
    will serve the "main" server, <code>server.example.com</code> and on the
    other (<code>172.20.30.50</code>), we will serve two or more virtual hosts.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Listen 80

# This is the "main" server running on 172.20.30.40
ServerName server.example.com
DocumentRoot "/www/mainserver"

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.50&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example1"
    ServerName www.example.com

    # Other directives here ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.50&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example2"
    ServerName www.example.org

    # Other directives here ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>Any request to an address other than <code>172.20.30.50</code> will be
    served from the main server. A request to <code>172.20.30.50</code> with an
    unknown hostname, or no <code>Host:</code> header, will be served from
    <code>www.example.com</code>.</p>

  </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="intraextra" id="intraextra">Serving the same content on
    different IP addresses (such as an internal and external
    address).</a></h2>

    <p>The server machine has two IP addresses (<code>192.168.1.1</code>
    and <code>172.20.30.40</code>). The machine is sitting between an
    internal (intranet) network and an external (internet) network. Outside
    of the network, the name <code>server.example.com</code> resolves to
    the external address (<code>172.20.30.40</code>), but inside the
    network, that same name resolves to the internal address
    (<code>192.168.1.1</code>).</p>

    <p>The server can be made to respond to internal and external requests
    with the same content, with just one <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#virtualhost">&lt;VirtualHost&gt;</a></code> section.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;VirtualHost 192.168.1.1 172.20.30.40&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/server1"
    ServerName server.example.com
    ServerAlias server
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>Now requests from both networks will be served from the same
    <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#virtualhost">&lt;VirtualHost&gt;</a></code>.</p>

    <div class="note">
          <h3>Note:</h3><p>On the internal
          network, one can just use the name <code>server</code> rather
          than the fully qualified host name
          <code>server.example.com</code>.</p>

          <p>Note also that, in the above example, you can replace the list
          of IP addresses with <code>*</code>, which will cause the server to
          respond the same on all addresses.</p>

    <p>Catching <em>every</em> request to any unspecified IP address and
    port, <em>i.e.</em>, an address/port combination that is not used for
    any other virtual host.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;VirtualHost _default_:*&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/default"
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>Using such a default vhost with a wildcard port effectively prevents
    any request going to the main server.</p>

    <p>A default vhost never serves a request that was sent to an
    address/port that is used for name-based vhosts. If the request
    contained an unknown or no <code>Host:</code> header it is always
    served from the primary name-based vhost (the vhost for that
    address/port appearing first in the configuration file).</p>

    <p>You can use <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#aliasmatch">AliasMatch</a></code> or
    <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule">RewriteRule</a></code> to rewrite any
    request to a single information page (or script).</p>
    

    <h3><a name="defaultdifferentports" id="defaultdifferentports"><code>_default_</code> vhosts
    for different ports</a></h3>

    <p>Same as setup 1, but the server listens on several ports and we want
    to use a second <code>_default_</code> vhost for port 80.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;VirtualHost _default_:80&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/default80"
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost _default_:*&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/default"
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>The default vhost for port 80 (which <em>must</em> appear before any
    default vhost with a wildcard port) catches all requests that were sent
    to an unspecified IP address. The main server is never used to serve a
    request.</p>
    

    <h3><a name="defaultoneport" id="defaultoneport"><code>_default_</code> vhosts
    for one port</a></h3>

    <p>We want to have a default vhost for port 80, but no other default
    vhosts.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;VirtualHost _default_:80&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/default"
...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>A request to an unspecified address on port 80 is served from the
    default vhost. Any other request to an unspecified address and port is
    served from the main server.</p>

    <p>Any use of <code>*</code> in a virtual host declaration will have
    higher precedence than <code>_default_</code>.</p>

<h2><a name="migrate" id="migrate">Migrating a name-based vhost to an
    IP-based vhost</a></h2>

    <p>The name-based vhost with the hostname
    <code>www.example.org</code> (from our <a href="#name">name-based</a> example, setup 2) should get its own IP
    address. To avoid problems with name servers or proxies who cached the
    old IP address for the name-based vhost we want to provide both
    variants during a migration phase.</p>

    <p>
     The solution is easy, because we can simply add the new IP address
    (<code>172.20.30.50</code>) to the <code>VirtualHost</code>
    directive.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Listen 80
ServerName www.example.com
DocumentRoot "/www/example1"

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.40 172.20.30.50&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example2"
    ServerName www.example.org
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.40&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/example3"
    ServerName www.example.net
    ServerAlias *.example.net
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>The vhost can now be accessed through the new address (as an
    IP-based vhost) and through the old address (as a name-based
    vhost).</p>

<h2><a name="serverpath" id="serverpath">Using the <code>ServerPath</code>
  directive</a></h2>

    <p>We have a server with two name-based vhosts. In order to match the
    correct virtual host a client must send the correct <code>Host:</code>
    header. Old HTTP/1.0 clients do not send such a header and Apache has
    no clue what vhost the client tried to reach (and serves the request
    from the primary vhost). To provide as much backward compatibility as
    possible we create a primary vhost which returns a single page
    containing links with an URL prefix to the name-based virtual
    hosts.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.40&gt;
    # primary vhost
    DocumentRoot "/www/subdomain"
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule "." "/www/subdomain/index.html"
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.40&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/subdomain/sub1"
    ServerName www.sub1.domain.tld
    ServerPath "/sub1/"
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule "^(/sub1/.*)" "/www/subdomain$1"
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;

&lt;VirtualHost 172.20.30.40&gt;
    DocumentRoot "/www/subdomain/sub2"
    ServerName www.sub2.domain.tld
    ServerPath "/sub2/"
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule "^(/sub2/.*)" "/www/subdomain$1"
    # ...
&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;</pre>


    <p>Due to the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverpath">ServerPath</a></code>
    directive a request to the URL
    <code>http://www.sub1.domain.tld/sub1/</code> is <em>always</em> served
    from the sub1-vhost.<br /> A request to the URL
    <code>http://www.sub1.domain.tld/</code> is only
    served from the sub1-vhost if the client sent a correct
    <code>Host:</code> header. If no <code>Host:</code> header is sent the
    client gets the information page from the primary host.</p>

    <p>Please note that there is one oddity: A request to
    <code>http://www.sub2.domain.tld/sub1/</code> is also served from the
    sub1-vhost if the client sent no <code>Host:</code> header.</p>

    <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule">RewriteRule</a></code> directives
    are used to make sure that a client which sent a correct
    <code>Host:</code> header can use both URL variants, <em>i.e.</em>,
    with or without URL prefix.</p>
