Configuring Static DNS Host to Address Entries

You can manually configure static entries in the DNS table that are used to map
domain names to IP addresses.
• Static entries may be used for local devices connected directly to the attached
network, or for commonly used resources located elsewhere on the network.
• Servers or other network devices may support one or more connections via
multiple IP addresses. If more than one IP address is associated with a host name
in the static table or via information returned from a name server, a DNS client can
try each address in succession, until it establishes a connection with the target
device.
The DNS Host Mapping Page contains parameters for defining static entries in the
DNS table.
