A virtual server is a logical entity that you configure on a physical server. This logical entity acts as an independent server. Virtual servers let you host multiple websites on one physical server. For example, using virtual servers, you could set up a server to host both www.mysite.com and www.yoursite.com.
You can assign any of the following to a virtual server:
Although you configure only one Web Agent per web server, you can configure Agent identities to protect your virtual servers. If one user accesses the server through www.mysite.com and another user accesses the server through www.yoursite.com, each server is protected by an agent identity. The advantage of creating an agent identity for each virtual server is that you can define unique realms and rules for each site.
The settings that you define for the Web Agent apply to all virtual servers that you define for that web server instance; however, each virtual server processes requests independently and the Policy Server treats each virtual server request separately. For more information about virtual servers and how to configure them, see the documentation for your web server.
To configure support for virtual servers, do one of the following tasks:
Note: If you have more than one instance of the Oracle iPlanet web server, such as a server for HTTP communication and a server for HTTPS communication, two WebAgent.conf files exist. Each file can have multiple agent identities. (The name Oracle iPlanet refers to the web server that was formerly called Sun ONE and iPlanet.)
