Exacly what does the access.log show?

With the above rules you should get a access deined alternatively a
cannot forward request error as the requested host name
"137.198.155.102" is not info.unmc.edu. If you enable vhost and use a
browser sending Host headers then exacly what is in the host
component of the URL is the vhost the browser is asking to connect
to. If the URL reads an IP address then the IP address is the vhost.
If a host name then the host name is the vhost.

The defaultsite domain name is used if either of the following are
true:

a) You do not specify the vhost directive in the http(s)_port.

b) If users connect with a old HTTP/1.0 client not sending the Host
header.
