What is Virtual Host in WebLogic? How to create it & what is the advantage?..

Answer / sriram

Virtual hosting allows you to define host names to which servers or clusters respond. When you use virtual hosting you use DNS naming to specify one or more host names that map to the IP address of a WebLogic Server or cluster and you specify which Web Applications are served by each virtual host.

Virtual Hosting is used in order to direct client requests to specific web servers using DNS names to differentiate between servers which may be found at the same IP address.

What is Virtual Host in WebLogic? How to create it & what is the advantage?..

Answer / lakshmi

virtual host is a host name, which maps URL to particular IP address.
to create a virtual host, we require a network channel (server).
In order to create a network channel,
1. go to console->left pane->wlserver->environment->servers
click lock&edit
right pane:
go to example server->protocols->channels
click lock&edit
click new
here, we need to give name, protocol, listen address, port
then, we need to create virtual host
2.  go to console->left pane->wlserver->environment->virtual hosts
click lock&edit
right pane:
click new
3. configure
go to console->left pane->wlserver->environment->virtual hosts
right pane:
click on link in virtual hosts table, then click on targets.
