Is this a VMware, or a VirtualBox VM? You say that the VM is using a bridged network. If so, then it should get its IP address from the local network's dhcp server. IE, it should be 80.xxx.xxx.xxx or something like that unless your host as an externally addressable static IP address. The 192.168.xxx.xxx address your VM has is a local unroutable address. If you want outside entities to access the web server on it, then you need to configure your router/firewall to route port 80 (for http requests) and/or 443 (https) to those ports on the 192.168... address.
