Alternate Access Mappings


There are five zones that can be configured in AAM in Central Administration. They are default, intranet, extranet, Internet, and custom.

Each web application can be associated with a collection of mappings between internal and public URLs. Both internal and public URLs consist of the protocol and domain portions of the full URL (for example, https://www.xyz.com). A public URL is what users type to access the SharePoint site, and that URL is what appears in the links on the pages. Internal URLs are in the URL requests that are sent to the SharePoint site. Ensure the correct URL has been set for each Web Application.

To validate the Alternate Access Mappings URL’s in Central Administration, perform the following:
