localhost

I'm trying to test a multi-tenant MVC application (in VS2012) locally by setting a subdomain on localhost.

The application is currently running on localhost:5252. I want to access it via both that address, and contoso.localhost:5252.

In my hosts file I added the following:

127.0.0.1       contoso.localhost

I'm using IISExpress... when I navigate to contoso.localhost locally, I just get the IIS page.

What am I doing wrong?
