Can any body tell me how to provide different URL's to the each different extended web applications in different zones (intranet,extranet,default,internet) on SharePoint 2013. Since I am extending one of the SharePoint 2013 webapplication.

Is it necessary to create or provide host header to the web application if we have to extend it.

Or without providing host header to the web application can we extend the SP2013 web application by providing it the different URL?

when you extend a web application, at that you can enter the url. or leave it with server & port numbers.

  1. Once the Web app extend, you can go the Central admin > Application managment > Configure the Alternate Access Mapping.
  2. Now on this page, select the web application
  3. click on edit the Public URL.
  4. Over here you can enter the DNS / URL what ever you want in the required zone.

  • I entered the url, "portal.mycompany.com" as told by you in the default zone but after hitting the url it is giving the error "This page can't be displayed" make sure your web address is correct or not. Port numbaer of my site is 5048 & public URL for default zone is "sp13dev:5048"
