To use your browser from a dedicated IP address to see the status of webserver Apache, you can add a directive in the httpd.conf file that uses the mod_status module to allow you to see the Apache Server Status

Open your httpd.conf file

$ cd /etc/httpd/conf

$ vi httpd.conf

Add in the below, swapping in your IP address in the allow string (this could also be a domain name):

<Location /server-status>
   SetHandler server-status
   Order Deny,Allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from 1.2.3.4
</Location>

Restart Apache

$ apachectl restart

Browse to your Apache webserver staus by going to:

http://1.2.3.4/server-status

If you are using WHM then you can configure this in the Apache Configuration – Include Editor function, this way the httpd.conf will always load the directive.

 

 

Update and restart Apache.
