Answer 1

By default I think tomcat starts in 0.0.0.0:80

So it is internet address , you can access the server using network ip from another system in the same network

Eg if network ip is 192.168.1.1 , you can access from another system which has ip 192.168.1.2 , as 192.168.1.1:80

( You can see your ip address by typing ifconfig and ipconfig in linux and windows respectively)

Else edit the ip address using config file and bind the server to your 192.168.1.1 ip

Several connectors are configured, and each connector has an optional "address" attribute where you can set the IP address.

1. Edit tomcat/conf/server.xml.
2. Specify a bind address for that connector:

   <Connector
   port="80"
   protocol="HTTP/1.1"
   address=""
   connectionTimeout="20000"
   redirectPort="8443"
   />
