7.6.1 Virtual Host

Virtual host is a web server technique that provides the capability to host more than

one domain (website) on one physical host and offers a cost-effective solution for

personal and small business with such need. You can host multiple websites (maximum

32) on the NAS with this feature.

Before you Start

In this tutorial we will use the information provided in the table below as the reference

guide.

Before you start, make sure you have checked the following items:

Web Server: Enable Web Server in "Applications" > "Web Server".

DNS records: The host name must point to the WAN IP of your NAS and you can

normally configure this from your DNS service providers.

Port forwarding: If the web server listens on port 80 you need to configure port

forwarding on your router to allow inbound traffic from port 80 to the LAN IP

(10.8.12.45) of your NAS.

SSL certificate import: If you are going to enable SSL connection for the website

and intend to use your own trusted SSL certificates you may import the certificate

from within the administration backend under "System Settings" > "Security" >

"Certificate & Private Key".
