Is it possible to view one of my websites which I've set up in ISPManager in a browser even before the domain is properly propagated?

For example, it would be nice if I could go to something like I've typed below and it would display the website before it's properly propagated.

http://194.201.203.189/example.com

At the moment, I know that by just typing the IP address in a browser it shows the default www domain, but ideally we could show a specific domain without having to change the default.

1. You can enter Server configuration -> IP-addresses and change Default domain on this IP.
After then you can enter to site by url http://194.201.203.189

2. Edit c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and add this line
194.201.203.189 example.com
and you can enter to http://example.com bypass DNS requests

3. If used mod_userdir apache module you can use URL http://194.201.203.189/~username/
ISPmanager automatically create symbol link public_html -> www/example.com in the user home directory when WWW domain is added.
