Doesn't show domain name on browser

I am having issue on my Apache web server.

I am doing URL forwarding at domain controller control panel. Say our client typing the domain example.com and it will redirect to 123.456.789.10/www (my webserver fix IP address). Our client browser will then shows 123.456.789.10/www on their browser instead of showing example.com.

Is this anything to do to my Apache setting or how to go about it? It looks weird to show my client the IP address instead of the domain name.

You should set an A record in your DNS registration to point the root domain name (@) to your IP address.
(and probably a similar A record for the www host)

You may need to configure the web server to respond to that hostname.
