Here is an example from apache's documentation (CentOS has an offline version with the 'httpd-manual' package):

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/example1"
    ServerName www.myserver1.com
</VirtualHost>

CentOS 7 comes with firewalld as default. If you want to use iptables:

iptables -F flushes all iptables rules and deletes them, thus removing your firewall protection and leaving your VM wide open to anyone that wants to hack it. Not a good plan. That's like removing the front door to your house because you don't have a spare key to lend to your weekend house guest.

What you really want to do is learn how to use the firewall and add rules to it to allow the traffic you want. If using firewalld - the default on CentOS 7 - then you need to read man firewall-cmd to learn how to add/amend firewall rules. If using plain ordinary iptables - the other alternative - the you need to read up on how to add/amend rules with that too.
