Configuring the URL used to access eShare

Use the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager application to bind a specific host name or host names to the CADMATIC eShare web site, so that users can access eShare with a friendly URL instead of having to use the server computer's IP address or network name.

To perform site binding to enable HTTPS, so that browsers can securely connect to eShare, see Enabling HTTPS binding for secure access to eShare.

For detailed information about configuring site bindings, refer to the documentation provided with IIS.

Prerequisites

• The host name to use is known to the Domain Name Service (DNS) of your site.

Do the following:

1. In the Connections pane, under Sites, right-click eShare and select Edit Bindings. The Site Bindings dialog opens.
2. To change the IP address or port of the default binding, or to add a host name for it, select its row and then click Edit.
3. Click Close.
4. Restart the web server for the changes to take effect.
