It is called a virtual site.
On main server management page of the GUI click on "Add Virtual Site"
Fill in the blanks
host            family
domain  xxxxxx.com
alias           (leave this blank)
email alias     (leave this blank as well)

for the main site it would have been
host            www
domain  xxxxxx.com
alias           xxxxxx.com
email alias     xxxxxx.com
The site is www.xxxxxx.com thus the alias of xxxxxx.com.
They would both display the same page
The email would be user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx thus the email alias of xxxxxx.com 
so you can receive email addressed to user@xxxxxxxxxxx

You can create all the sub-domains you want.
Just create a new virtual site and put the different host name for each one
If the sites are to be set up the same, make sure you have set up the 
default for virtual sites.
Do make sure you are pointing the DNS as the IP for each of the sub-domains.
