If i set port offset, and Litespeed & Apache run together, and i want my visitors to be served by LItespeed instead of Apache, how does my server know which webserver should be used to serve the visitors?

I want my Apache to run as backup webserver, such as in case EasyApache is still running and Litespeed is down. Is this a common usage for LS port offset?

Thank you.

if you set port offset, your website will run under apache. while litespeed listen to another port.
e.g.
youdomain.com/* served by apache
yourdomain.com:2080/* served by litespeed.
but in practice, nobody except you will access yourdomain.com:2080
please note: both apache and litespeed are running, but URLs are different.

no.
in most time or most case, only apache or litespeed is running. the reason already addressed above: no one except you will access yourdomain.com:2080, also 100% people will access yourdomain.com (it's same as yourdomain.com:80) which is either served by apache or litespeed, not both.
