Configure Hosts
To view, edit, or create host settings on an active INA module, click Host.
Each host attached to an IP network is assigned a unique IP address.
Every INA module is assigned a unique IP address. Every INA module supports a local table to map hostnames to IP addresses. If your network lacks a computer that can perform hostname resolution, the INA module allows entries in a local host table. Hostnames are used by the INA module only for your convenience when you use the command line interface or if you require users to enter hostnames at the host prompt.
Tip Lucent Remote Access strongly recommends using the Domain Name System (DNS) or Network Information Service (NIS) for hostname resolution, rather than the local host table. By doing so you avoid confusion and reduce administrative overhead. The INA module always checks the local host table before using DNS or NIS.
