I have a server named sv002, and I have created an intranet web application at the root of this server. So currently I am able to access the web application using the following URL: - http://sv002.
But our client have asked to change the URL to be http://compnayname.intra
. So I went to the SharePoint Central Administration > Alternative Access Mapping. Then I define the URL (http://compnayname.intra
) in the Intranet zone , while I left the Default zone as is (http://sv002
).
I have the following two questions:-
Is there any missing steps inside SharePoint that I need to do , for changing the server name. as my next step is to inform the system admin about applying th mapping inside the server DNS?
How will SharePoint recognize and decide which zone to use either the default or the Intranet, when accessing the SharePoint site?
