That's not how it works. AJP is a tunnel between Apache and Tomcat and the
URLs must reference the Apache server. Tomcat is an internal detail in
this case. It cannot be exposed to traffic directly.

You are simply confused about the architecture. You need to learn how
Apache and Tomcat work together and then add in Shibboleth afterwards.
