I am using Program.cs and hosting.json file to configure Kestrel. Example:

    var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
                    .SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
                    .AddJsonFile("hosting.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
                    .Build();

    var host = new WebHostBuilder()
                    .UseConfiguration(config)
                    .UseKestrel()
                    .UseContentRoot(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
                    .UseStartup();

hosting.json:

{
    "urls": "http://localhost:4444;http://localhost:4445;"
}

This above is an example for the latest version dotnet core.

For earlier versions:

hosting.json:

{
    "server.urls": "http://localhost:4444;http://localhost:4445;"
}
