how to parse something like domain name to a action

Question

this is one of my routes:

routes.MapRoute(
    name: "PR",
    url: "Home/PageRank/{id*}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

but when I use this url http://localhost:56828/Home/PageRank/google.com I'm getting 404 error.

Isn't this similar to your previous question? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11838840/get-a-complete-url-like-http-google-com-as-action-input?rq=1 — Learner, Jun 12 '13 at 18:23
IIS may be blocking `.com` extensions for security reasons. Try `.org`. — SLaks, Jun 12 '13 at 18:24
@Learner that was about getting url with protocol. with `{it*}` in route IIS shouldn't try to find google.com file in `Home/PageRank/` folder but it seems it try to find it and repose 404 error! — ahmadali shafiee, Jun 12 '13 at 18:27
The `.` in the url can cause the issue. Try having the following setting in your `Web.config` and see if it works. ` ` — Kiran, Jun 12 '13 at 18:30

The . in the url can cause the issue. Try having the following setting in your Web.config and see if it works. <system.webServer> <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
