At a high level, configuring NGINX Plus as a web server is a matter of defining which URLs it handles and how it processes HTTP requests for resources at those URLs. At a lower level, the configuration defines a set of _virtual servers_ that control the processing of requests for particular domains or IP addresses. For more information about configuration files, see [Creating NGINX Plus Configuration Files](https://www.nginx.com/resources/admin-guide/configuration-files/).

Each virtual server for HTTP traffic defines special configuration instances called _locations_ that control processing of specific sets of URIs. Each location defines its own scenario of what happens to requests that are mapped to this location. NGINX Plus provides full control over this process. Each location can proxy the request or return a file. In addition, the URI can be modified, so that the request is redirected to another location or virtual server. Also, a specific error code can be returned and you can configure a specific page to correspond to each error code.
