Forward URL

[RRo]

Hello, I'm using an FGT60F with firmware v7.2.11 build 1740.
Our provider only gave us a fixed IP address.
Is it possible, for example, to forward the URL test1.domain.com to one server and test2.domain.com to another?

Thanks, Rolf

Hi RRo,

You can't do this with a standard VIP but will be able to do it using virtual servers/load balancer, which are a special type of VIP.

You need to enable 'Load Balance' feature in the GUI first via System > Feature Visibility > Load Balance

Once enabled you'll be able to configure virtual servers, with a single VIP. Select HTTP Host as the load balancing method, then add your real backend servers with their hostnames.

You'll need to upload a wildcard certificate for *.mydomain.com to match both hosts.

Please refer to the document below for more information:

If you have found a solution, please like and accept it to make it easily accessible to others.

Regards,
Aman

Hello Aman,
I've made the settings, and when I access the URL (easyjob-test), the Fortigate GUI login responds.

Hi, most probably it means you have Fortigate admin port set to 443 as well, if so - you have to change it to something else
