---------------------

Attempting to restrict access via hostname blocks all access to GlassFish Server. For example, if the following is defined in the "testing" configuration for the virtual server called "test":

$ ./asadmin set testing.http-service.virtual-server.test.property.allowRemoteHost=test1.<DOMAIN_NAME>
$ ./asadmin set testing.http-service.virtual-server.test.property.denyRemoteHost=test2.<DOMAIN_NAME>

Updates domain.xml with:

<http-service>
       <virtual-server id="test" network-listeners="http-listener-1,http-listener-2">
          <property name="allowRemoteHost" value="test1.<DOMAIN_NAME>"></property>

          <property name="denyRemoteHost" value="test2.<DOMAIN_NAME>"></property>
       </virtual-server>
</http-service>

Both hosts will be denied access.
