<H1 ALIGN="CENTER">Setting which addresses and ports Apache uses</H1>
|
|
|
|
<p>When Apache starts, it connects to some port and address on the
|
|
local machine and waits for incoming requests. By default, it
|
|
listens to all addresses on the machine, and to the port
|
|
as specified by the <code>Port</code> directive in the server configuration.
|
|
However, it can be told to listen to more the one port, or to listen
|
|
to only selected addresses, or a combination. This is often combined
|
|
with the Virtual Host feature which determines how Apache
|
|
responds to different IP addresses, hostnames and ports.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code>Listen</code> directive tells the server to accept
|
|
incoming requests only on the specified port or address-and-port
|
|
combinations. If only a port number is specified in the
|
|
<code>Listen</code> directive, the server listens to the given port on
|
|
all interfaces, instead of the port given by the <code>Port</code>
|
|
directive. If an IP address is given as well as a port, the server
|
|
will listen on the given port and interface. Multiple Listen
|
|
directives may be used to specify a number of addresses and ports to
|
|
listen to. The server will respond to requests from any of the listed
|
|
addresses and ports.</P>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, to make the server accept connections on both port
|
|
80 and port 8000, use:
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
Listen 80
|
|
Listen 8000
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
|
|
To make the server accept connections on two specified
|
|
interfaces and port numbers, use
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
Listen 192.170.2.1:80
|
|
Listen 192.170.2.5:8000
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
|
|
<H2>How this works with Virtual Hosts</H2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Listen does not implement Virtual Hosts. It only tells the
|
|
main server what addresses and ports to listen to. If no
|
|
<VirtualHost> directives are used, the server will behave the
|
|
same for all accepted requests. However, <VirtualHost> can be
|
|
used to specify a different behavior for one or more of the addresses
|
|
and ports. To implement a VirtualHost, the server must first be told
|
|
to listen to the address and port to be used. Then a
|
|
<VirtualHost> section should be created for a specified address
|
|
and port to set the behavior of this virtual host. Note that if the
|
|
<VirtualHost> is set for an address and port that the server is
|
|
not listening to, it cannot be accessed.
