Step 2: Once the appropriate base URLs are finalised. The WebServer Needs to be configured for the virtual host entries. Note:- The Configuration file may vary for different Hosting Environment. For windows server the apache configuration file will be named as httpd.conf. Creating virtual host configurations on your Apache server does not magically cause DNS entries to be created for those host names. You must 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 hosts file for local testing, but that will work only from the machine with those hosts entries. Reference Link: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/examples.html An Example Sample Configuration done is shown below
