When you are publishing the website on IIS it should bind with IP address and also you can provide the Host header.<br />
<br />
Go to DNS ( if your IIS server is part of Domain ) and create a DNS A record entry <br />
<br />
e.g. 10.1.1.1 &nbsp; and appnew.com<br />
<br />
A 10.1.1.1 appnew.com
</div>

You will need to use folder redirection on the root/virtual directory of the website. &nbsp;You can then point it to the appropriate folder

DNS - IIS

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries, organized in abstraction layers, traditionally called "Link," "Internet," "Transport" and "Application”. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.

Internet Protocols

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
