http://192.168.0.121/x.html" in a browser. If you want to use a domain name then it's up to something like your DNS, local HOSTS file etc. to perform the required mapping.

If I may ask you a follow up question, please. How to do you "translate" the IP in the URL to a descriptive name? For example, I was installing the app on another customer's server and they put the URL for the main page to be:
http://somename.companyname.org/mypage.aspxDo I understand correctly that the "somename.companyname.org" is equal to some IP like "192.168.0.121"?
