websites on azure

hi community,
i have 2 seperate questions related to hosting web apps on azure and using application gateway:

1) normally on one VM, i can create multiple websites on IIS. for example, having a website of contoso.com and another one of test.com. and i can map the public IP to these domain names and i can access externally. what will happen if i want to add an azure app GW infront of this VM because i have one backend pool with 2 sites on the same VM. i have to create a multisite listener and add the same backend pool twice or what is the procedure?

2) regarding azure app service, can i also host 2 different websites on on azure app service? upload 2 different websites?
and again if is feasible what would be the approach of app GW here too?

thanks fir the support

Hi, Yes App Service Plans can host multiple web apps/sites and the process for application gateway is the same for both.

The app gateway itself just has a single public IP address but you can have a multi-site listener to your backend pool which can host multiple sites. Typically, you will use host headers to forward the traffic to the correct web app/site. See here for more details:
