Actions | |
Started my server on localhost:8081 | |
Added my "local DNS" in the hosts file as a new line | |
127.65.43.21 example.app | |
Any free address in the network 127.0.0.0/8 (127.x.x.x) can be used. | |
Note: I am assuming 127.65.43.21:80 is not occupied by another service. | |
You can check with netstat -a -n -p TCP | grep "LISTENING" | |
added the following network configuration with netsh command utility | |
netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=80 listenaddress=127.65.43.21 connectport=8081 connectaddress=127.0.0.1 | |
I can now access the server at http://example.app | |
Notes: | |
- These commands/file modifications need to be executed with Admin rights | |
- netsh portproxy needs ipv6 libraries even only to use v4tov4, typically they will also be included by default, otherwise install them using the following command: netsh interface ipv6 install | |
You can see the entry you have added with the command: | |
netsh interface portproxy show v4tov4 | |
You can remove the entry with the following command: | |
netsh interface portproxy delete v4tov4 listenport=80 listenaddress=127.65.43.21 |
