2 devices connected to the same address via Wireless

Question

I am using Visual Studio 2017 to run the application. (ASP.NET MVC)

How can I make another computer connect the same url address: 192.XXXXXXXXXXX:56987.

That is: 2 computers working at the same address, where I can debug the computer A and B.

I have 2 computers connected to the same wifi network.

1 - Attempt:

I already went to the Windows firewall configuration > I added new rule ... (New port configured).

And I still get the following error:

Bad Request - Invalid Hostname

HTTP Error 400. The request hostname is invalid.

2 - Attempt:

Start Menu > ISS > Website Associations > New port and IP.

Same problem. " Bad Request - Invalid Hostname ..."

3 - Attempt:

I’ve tried to put http://192.XXX.XX.XXX:56987/

4 - Attempt:

I have tried the colleague’s reply Rovann Linhalis. The problem remains the same.

5 - Attempt:

I tried my colleague’s answer Gypsy Morrison Mendez, the problem changed.

Now it is no longer "Bad Request - Invalid Hostname ...". Now it is:

Service Unavailable HTTP Error 503.

The service is unavailable.

Some solution ?

Answer 1

Whereas the two computers are already on the same network:

1-Discover the IP of your computer A:

open a command prompt, the famous cmd, and type ipconfig. You will see this screen:

Your address will be on "IPV4 address" in my case, 192.168.25.50

2-Discover the TCP port used by ISS, you can look directly at the url opened by visual studio when you start the project:

In my case, 2143, in case I don’t have an informed door (http://[host]:[port]/[...]) will be adopted the standard HTTP port, which is 80.

3-Release the port (if necessary) in the windows firewall:

Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Advanced Settings > Input Rules > New Rule > Port > TCP | Specific local ports [enter your port] > Allow Connection > All options > NAME your rule > Finish.

4-In the browser of the computer B, type the same url that the visual studio opens for you by replacing the Host part with the IP of the computer A.

EX:

To: http://localhost:2143/Default.aspx

B: http://192.168.25.50:2143/Default.aspx

Answer 2

You must also allow the use of the address specifically for the IIS Express case by running the following in administrator mode:

> netsh http add urlacl url=http://192.168.25.50:56987 user=everyone

Note that this is not a configuration of firewall. It’s a user-based permissioning.

Having had a 503 error, some more things need to be done:

1. Open your file applicationhost.config file. Usually it is in C:\Users\SeuUsuario\Documents\IISExpress\config\applicationhost.config or in Diretório da Solução\.vs\config\applicationhost.config (in the case of VS2015);

2. Locate your website entry in the file and add the following:

   <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation=":56987:nomedasuamaquina" />
   

3. Restart the IIS Express.
