Solution
When configuring your portal software, the configuration above will
default your portal address to your server name, however you may wish to
use a specific URL for your portal for external users to access.
IIS does not let you change the host name of an https binding via the edit
button in this dialog: There is a way to change this host name value through a command line
tool, appcmd.
Keep in mind this site name needs to be resolvable
through DNS and the SSL certificate would need to be configured with
this host name in order for it to work.
To add a host header to a Web site's binding, use the following syntax:
appcmd set site /site.name:string /bindings.[protocol='string'
,bindingInformation='string'].bindingInformation:string
The variable site.name string is name of the site to which you want to
add a host header. The variable [protocol='string',bindingInf
ormation='string'] is the existing binding to which you want to add a host header, and bindingInformation string is the new binding with host header.
Example
To configure a site named contoso with an existing HTTPS
binding for all IP addresses, on port 443, without a host header to have
a host header named marketing, type the following at the command prompt,
and then press ENTER:
appcmd set site /site.name:contoso /bindings.[protocol='https'
,bindingInformation='*:443:'].bindingInformation:*:443:marketing
