External/Internal IP Address

[youngnetworkadmin]

ok I'm into web hosting, and i have one server that is dedicated specifically for a site. Then the other one is supposed to be for all the others. so what i need to know is, is their a way to make a certain site point to one server that is behind a router and then make all the other ones point to the other server?

If you have more than one external IP address you can setup NAT such that one IP address points to one server and the other address points to the other.

If you have only one IP address available, you will need to setup port forwarding such that http (port 80) traffic is relayed to one internal server whereas other http (port 8080?) is forwarded to the other server.

Alternatively you could host all your websites on the same server and just setup numerous virtual sites all linked to the same IP address.
