3.5.1 Matrix Server Administration Guide

Chapter 12: Configure Virtual Hosts 209

Also note the following:

• After creating virtual hosts, you will need to configure your

applications to recognize them.

• As of the 3.5.1 release, Matrix Server no longer uses the old aliases

interface but instead uses the

NETLINK facility to configure virtual

hosts as secondary addresses. As a result, ipconfig(8) should no

longer be used to query for Matrix Server virtual hosts. Instead, use

ip(8) for the queries. For example, ip addr show displays the virtual

hosts.

Add or Modify a Virtual Host

To add or update a virtual host, select the appropriate option:

• To add a new virtual host, select Matrix > Add > Add Virtual Host or

click the V-Host icon on the toolbar. Then configure the virtual host on

the Add Virtual Host window.

• To update an existing virtual host, select that virtual host on either the

Server or Virtual Hosts window, right-click, and select Properties.

Then make your changes on the Virtual Host Properties window.
