Testing a Web Site on Your Intranet

Steps to Test:

1. Use Server IP or Hostname:

   • Test from another device on the network:
     http://<server-IP> or http://hostname

2. Add DNS or Hosts Entry (Optional):

   • Update DNS or add C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts entries for name-based access.

3. Disable Windows Firewall (for testing only):

   • Temporarily disable to see if it blocks traffic:

netsh advfirewall set allprofiles state off

Check Binding Configuration in IIS:

• Ensure the correct IP, port, and host name are set in site bindings.
