I am running IIS 7.5 and back-end of a web application. This web app is only accessible from within the intranet.
Currently it can be accessed as http://f97fa43fa - some combination of letters and numbers. I would like to create a more friendly name for the web site.
How do I do that? Thanks.
PS - I tried the redirect feature, but it did not work.

We are currently using an internal farm of two web servers running IIS on MS2019. In IIS, we have a site called ABC under the Default Web Site.
This farm is load balanced. When you go to the VIP (mysite.com), which sends the traffic to the appropriate web server, it goes directly to the IIS landing/welcome page. How can I configure IIS to redirect to s specific site versus the welcome page?
mysite.com --> mysite.com/ABC
I've got an Azure Front Door that has been set up to link to 2 Windows VM's running IIS, I'm trying to add a Frontend Domain that I can then use to access websites on the VM's.

Then I have the backend pool which links to the 2 servers.
Back End Pool
I then have a route to the web servers, which should (as far as I can tell) just forward the request onwards.

Then I have my web servers which I have set up the bindings on for the website

However whenever I try to browse to the website I just see the IIS landing page rather than the website I have setup. How do I get to my actual website?
The problem in the end was that the Certificate subject name validation had been enabled. To change you need to go to Front Door Designer then Settings.
if you get the IIS landing page it means the traffic is forwarded correctly from the AFD, your problem is likely with the local IIS setup like the default page or something like that.
While publish into iis i can create website and publish into it. And also i can create an application into a website. So can you please tell me why website and application
In IIS Terms, a Website can have many applications.
Let's say you have 3 websites...
example.com
website.com
test.com
Those are all different websites, now lets say example.com has three applications
example.com/calculator
example.com/lightbulb
example.com/forum
Calculator, lightbulb, and forums are considered as applications under example.com The Website
I am Developing a web site that has Angular.js based client and Web API 2 server.
Both will be deployed under my website subdoman: "Admin.myDomain.com".
I would like to have ssl support. (on client and also requests for server)
Thinking that the client will be under Admin.myDomain.com and the Webapi : Admin.myDomain.com/admin/
In term SSL connection - What should be the best way to deploy this?
What I thought:
1. Connect the IP to the machine - Conenct the SSL work on entire IIS level.
2. Have the angular client side deployed on default web site on IIS.
3. have the web api deployed as subfolder (another applicaation).
will this work?
Is there a better way?
You can create your certificate specifically for admin.website.com or with a wildcard for *.website.com. It depends based in your future needs and available budget.
I would suggest to avoid Default Web Site and create a new WebSite that accepts only 443 (and link the certificate here) then you put your API running there with something like.
https://admin.website.com/v1/api
and your angular application at:
https://admin.website.com/app
I like the idea of using Azure to host a Wordpress Blog.
I currently have an Azure Website that I'd like to add a blog to. Ideally I can create another website for the blog, and then have blog.mysite.com always show the contents of myblog.azurewebsites.net. Would this be possible?
I can have my domain registrar forward/mask from blog.mysite.com, but if there's a way to do it without masking, any info on getting that done would be awesome.
When you create a web site, Windows Azure provides a friendly
subdomain on the azurewebsites.net domain so your users can access
your web site using a URL like http://.azurewebsites.net.
However, if you configure your web sites for Shared or Standard mode,
you can map your web site to your own domain name.
