Answer 1

1.You need to create a website and create binding

  <bindings>
                    <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:9999:" />
                    <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:80:www.test.com" />
                </bindings>

2.You need to register www.test.com in hosts files C:\\Windows\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\hosts. Or you need to register it to DNS.

127.0.0.1 www.test.com

3.Create a virtual application under your website with name admin

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/configuration/system.applicationhost/sites/site/application/

4.Publish your client project to the root folder of your website

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/deployment/tutorial-import-publish-settings-iis?view=vs-2019

5.Publish your admin project to the application localhost/admin .

6.Grant permission for your application pool identity(IIS Apppool\\apppoolname) and authenticated user like IUSR.

7.Try to access the applications.

Since virtual application are isolated from your root application, you don't have to afraid of application conflicts.
